Energetic and smart. I think I would choose smartness ,he could be energetic.
However, you have interacted with them and you already know who... actually you need.

Start looking for a new job with better pay and opportunities to grow within the company. As far as right now inform your employer unfortunately you... are not able to partake nor participate in the birthday activities due to your financial duties outside of work which has a direct impact on your stability/livelihood. more

The office gift pool process can be either be a fun, flexibly-run, relatively low cost feature of office life or a joyless and potentially burdensome... ritual. It depends on the culture, rules and how it's run.

Is the gift amount one is expected to give per B-day prescribed or left up to the donor? Is the amount one donates "published" or private? Is an individual free to opt out of the pool (and take a pass on both giving and receiving) without any social stigma attached? Is the collection envelope landing on your desk one or two times a month or twice a week? (If it's twice a month and one contributes $5.00 per birthday, that's $120 for the year. )

Finally, does the giving and receiving contribute to genuine joy on the part of givers and recipients or is it simply one more office "ritual"? Personally, I enjoyed the funny group office cards I received with my colleague's signatures and congratulations more than any trinkets.  more

I say continue to give what it can pray over it. It’s better to give then to receive. Give and it will be given unto you good measure pressed down... shaken together and running over, not just from God but from man too.  more

they can't make you do that. and i personally don't. if they try to fire you for it, you have a lawsuit against them

If youd like to appear thoughtful you can offer to buy the card ($2-$6) or you buy one bulk box of birthday cards (1 time cost $20) or if theres... always a 'birthday coordinator' give them a one time 'donation' of say $50 and tell them to decide how to dole that out as the year goes on.

Or politely say no (excuses: Im saving up for something, Im helping out with a family issue, Id like to give more to charity this year.) Do this a few times (always for the same 'reason') and theyll stop asking.

Want to be the hero? Figure out who else cant afford this company generosity and coordinate ALL of you saying no. more

60% of people with full-time jobs are underwater and building credit card at debt. are you open to some advice?

can we agree that having a job is one of the worst decisions you can make in your life? I started my first construction business when I was 17 made... my first million before 25. Since then we've helped over a thousand people in my 40 year career become millionaires by starting businesses. With artificial intelligence leverage tools and social media. There has never been a better time in history then right now to start a business. Have you watch the 10 most profitable business is video you can start in 2026? What about the worst businesses you can start in 2026? more

No is a complete sentence.

Don’t ask. Politely insist.

Why get driven by peer pressure. Just do what you feel works for you.
