Wenn der Job das Geschenk vorgibt
<p>Bargeld im Umschlag ist praktisch, aber selten erinnerungswürdig. Deutlich besser trifft man, wenn das Geschenk zeigt, dass du weißt, womit die beschenkte Person ihre Tage verbringt. Genau dafür ist diese Kategorie sortiert: Die binäre Armbanduhr lässt Uninformierte ratlos zurück, während Eingeweihte die Zeit im Vorbeigehen dekodieren – es gibt sie auch als IT-Upgrade-Variante. „Stay away from Server" macht am Rechenzentrum eine gute Figur, „Definition: Engineer" bringt das Berufsbild auf den Punkt, und „Encryption" sowie „Jesus saves" bedienen jenen speziellen Humor, den man erst nach ein paar Jahren im Fach richtig komisch findet.</p>
Vom Blechschild bis zum Bausatz
<p>Nicht alles hier ist zum Anziehen gedacht. „Plant.zip.zip" gibt es als Motiv und als Blechschild, „Binary Tree" spielt mit derselben Doppeldeutigkeit zwischen Botanik und Datenstruktur. Für Schreibtische, auf denen sich Staub in Tastaturritzen sammelt, liegt Cyber Clean bereit, und „Floppy Disks" erinnert daran, dass das Speichern-Symbol mal ein physisches Objekt war. Wer lieber baut als bedient, findet mit Elektro-Plüsch und der Technik-Überraschung Nachschub, das Informatik Spar-Set bündelt gleich mehrere Klassiker. „Coincidence – Zufall?" und die Dinokurve nehmen sich derweil die Diagramme vor, an denen sich Statistikvorlesungen abgearbeitet haben. Und mit „Women in Science" liegt ein Buch über zwanzig Pionierinnen der Wissenschaft dabei, das erstaunlich oft im Regal bleibt, statt weiterverschenkt zu werden.</p>
Für Kollegen, Chefinnen und Menschen mit Fachvokabular
<p>Ob Geburtstag, Weihnachten, bestandene Prüfung oder ein Dankeschön nach einer durchgemachten Nacht am Server – die Sortierung nach Beruf nimmt dir die Suche ab. Du weißt, was die Person macht, der Rest ergibt sich. Für die Kolleginnen und Kollegen aus der Entwicklung lohnt der Abstecher zu Geschenken für Informatiker, bei Menschen mit Root-Rechten passen
Geschenke für IT-Admins besser. Steht eher das Labor als der Serverraum im Mittelpunkt, führt der Weg zu
Geschenken für Wissenschaftler. Und wenn der Job partout nichts hergibt, sortiert
Geschenkideen nach Hobby nach dem, was nach Feierabend passiert.</p>
