All I want from coworkers -- from anybody, really -- is gift cards to Borders Books & music.
That way, you also aren't getting them something that junks up their house.

I'm beginning to hate gift exchanges with the passion of a trillion fiery suns. We do a family gift exchange that I think is the scourge of Satan. My work exchange I actually prefer, because the people really think about me and what I want. Meanwhile, our family exchange is just me getting gifts for people who don't even acknowledge them (I don't necessarily need a thank-you note, just some confirmation that the package I sent your stupid ass got to you), and me getting gifts that I'd rather just throw away or leave at my parents' house.
Since I live in the Northeast and most of my family lives in the sunbelt, I end up getting a lot of inappropriate winter gear. Hey, that 12" long scarf really won't work. Neither will the cotton summerweight gloves. Thanks a million!
What do I want? A lot of things--people could just
ask me.
My boss gets all the employees Borders gift cards. Best gift ever. I stay in Borders.
