Happy Boss's Day!

Boss's Day is upon us! As Michael Scott said, "What happens to a company if somebody takes its boss away? I will answer your question with a question. It's like what happens to a chicken, when you take its head away. It dies. Unless you find a new head."


October 16th is only a week away, so let Abernook help you find the perfect gift for that oh-so-special boss in your life!

Boss's Day Gifts

Every year, National Boss's Day is October 16th. Most people believe that National Boss's Day is just a "Hallmark" holiday, and not to be taken seriously. However, the tradition dates back to 1958, although it hasn't been widely celebrated until more recent years. Patricia Bays Haroski registered October 16th to be National Boss's Day because it was the date of her father's birthday, and her father just happened to be her boss!


Boss's Day is a day for employees to show their bosses the appreciation they deserve. It's also a day to thank them for the guidance they provide, for helping to keep the company running smoothly, and for managing so many people and tasks. Employees generally give cards, flowers, gifts, or gift baskets, based on their boss's personality and hobbies.


Trying to find a gift for a boss with a great sense of humor? Desk plaques and message coffee mugs with humorous sentiments are always a great find, along with other ways to decorate their cubicle or office. Little toys and funny trinkets go a long way towards improving your boss's morale...and when the boss is happy, you are too!


If you're seeking a more professional gift, you can't go wrong with a glass paperweight or desk clock. A distinguished leather portfolio or personalized money clip will surely show your boss how much you appreciate them!


Only you know what will please your boss, so mark your calendar for October 16th, and keep an eye out for that perfect gift!
