Aluminum is a weird choice because it’s almost always alloyed with other metals.

Oh yeah that sounds nice, it’s almost certainly a cultural thing haha. Here in the US it sucks.

if it really becomes too much, they will just assign others to help you out

I can’t even imagine this actually happening, even at the better companies I’ve worked at. Closest I’ve seen is when someone is so overloaded that they quit, then management decides to hire two people to replace them so they can “catch up”.

In my experience people will often offer $20 for anything worth up to $1000 and as little as $50, any less and they want it delivered for free.

The number of people who offered me $20 for my $1200 TV was staggering, and one woman wanted me to pay her to take my beanbag chairs.

Better to just accept the gifts for yourself and let them fire you. I imagine a juicy wrongful termination suit would be appropriate.
