    As you may know, this Tuesday is Boss's Day. My boss is a very devout Jehovah's Witness. I know that Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate holidays like birthdays, Thanksgiving, Mother's Day, etc. I would like to give my boss a card and a small gift for Boss's Day, but at the same time, I do not want to offend him (he makes it very well-known that he is a Witness). But at the same time, he did bring our admins gifts on Administrative Professional's day a few months back.

    So, if you are a Witness, can you please let me know how you view Boss's Day. Is it a holiday that you celebrate? I would appreciate your input. Thanks.

    Maybe you could just give him the gift without acknowledging it's Boss' Day. That would work, right?

    I've never heard of boss day. Sounds like another ridiculous hallmark holiday.
