Gifts from company
Why are you sending me something which I don't want? Isn't the concept of gifting is to give something which the receiver can utilize. Just send me the bonus and let me decide what I want for myself. I don't want expensive chocolates and cookies with unconventional jars. I want a nice a pair of headphones or maybe a smartwatch. The price is the same as what you are sending me, so please stop this.

    It's a backstreet handjob.

    They give you the chocolates because they're getting a deal on them because their friend owns the chocolate company.

    So instead of it costing them $100 it costs $60 and their buddy gets a huge uptick in sales/revenue.

    Everyone wins in this situation. Your employer looks good, their friend gets paid, and you get chocolates.

    Unless you're allergic to chocolates... Then you lose.

    @sariel Exactly, the intention is not to appreciate the employee but completing a formality.
