Birthday Gift?

I am a summer intern at a F100 company. One of the analysts here has been very nice to me and has helped me with MANY things! I really want to show my appreciation. His birthday is coming up soon would it be acceptable for me to get him a gift ($50)? Money is not an issue here. I just want to be sure that it would be okay? He also took me for lunch.

I think it would be weird. Exchanging gifts implies a relationship that is way above what should occur in an intern/non-intern relationship. I have very close friends with whom i don't exchange birthday gifts. If you really want to do something nice buy him lunch, or a few drinks and a lap dance.

 

Get him some Cantuccinis with the appropriate bottle of wine, that has class and is not too much. It also shows that you did not buy some random bottle of wine. When you give the bottle to him say something like "..happy birthday blabla and you also want to thank him for this efforts to mentor you"
