    When you work in certain fields there are strict laws around accepting gifts from customers or clients. None of those laws allow the business owner to steal them from you.

      This is because the gifts must be tossed in the hole. The hole that runs the company. Because the company is run by a hole.

      Once the hole is filled the company dies and you are free.

      Source: I fill holes.

        My company forces everyone to take a training that must be repeated every year, teaching us that we have to always refuse gifts because of corruption and collision collusion laws.

          I can only hope that was an autocorrect, otherwise you'd better retake that training. Or maybe full-contact corrupting is a thing now...

              Food? So if a client takes me for a meal I have to make sure to vomit it onto my boss' desk when I get back to the office?

              It's all about the proper regurgitating technique

                Duh, buying them would be capex. No one wants to do depreciation. Short term lease with a damage clause.

                  In our company this is a bribe and we don't accept bribes.

                  Last company where I faced external suppliers, I had to take a training where they said we couldn't accept any item worth more than like $20, except food or alcohol during a presentation. But we could accept such items on behalf of the company, and they would be raffled off to a random employee. One time a guy in purchasing got a giant brass horse head from a Chinese supplier. I guess nobody signed up for the raffle, so it became a permanent fixture in the cafeteria.

                      That's not actually legal anywhere in the US. However, it requires being reported so it's hardly ever enforced.

                          You might not be saying that if/when someone who represents your interests gets into power. Remember, we got the ADA, Civil Rights, and more through widespread protest action. Things will continue to happen.

                              I don't think any amount of discussion with you on this subject is going to change either of our minds on the federal government. I'm just gonna assume you're a leftist and have your own approach to getting shit done that I'm not engaged with and wish you a good day.
