Does anyone do this when they return to work? If so, what sort of thing? I don't want to belittle their work in my absence with something insulting, yet can't afford much. Maybe nothing is better than something wrong.
(I manage a small dept in a big company. My maternity leave wasn't covered by another person. The team has chipped in and my deputy has 'acted up' for a small addition to her salary).
Apologies if this has been covered before. I've been avoiding this topic in denial of the inevitable!
