I don't hate my co-workers, including my boss, and have a pretty decent professional relationship with them; but I have no interest in inviting them to my house for a diwali party. I am ofcourse happy to do the gifting as per the standard expectation, whatever that is (please help!).
I am only conscious of not reciprocating (especially invites). I have also noted that some of the gifting to the overlords is rather extravagant but I'd just like to distribute the standard gift to every one in the team. Any advice on navigating Diwali in a T1 would be helpful. Thank you.
I have refused booze parties or similar, this is sorted now. Would never fall prey to this in future too.
