'I have actually found myself quite offended that someone thought this was an appropriate gift for a fifty year old female colleague in a professional environment'
Christmas time is a golden opportunity to show family and friends how much you appreciate them by buying personalised gifts, but it can be a challenge when you have to buy for a stranger.
One woman received a workplace gift that was so "unpleasant" that she considered going to HR about it before posting about it on internet parenting forum Mumsnet. She continued: "I have actually found myself quite offended that someone thought this was an appropriate gift for a fifty year old female colleague in a professional environment.
A second sympathiser added: "I would absolutely take this to HR. If it was an honest mistake, then they can apologise and learn to be more careful."
