Gifts for cabin crew

[DejaBrew]

Boarding QF65 last week, the chap behind me gifted the CSM at the door some chocolates. It was such an awkward interaction and very much came across as an attempted bribe. Just my observation as a independent third party to the event.

Out of curiosity, what was their gifting approach?

When entering the aircraft and you show your boarding pass, he also handed over what looked like a box of chocolates to the CSM who was one of two crew doing the door meet and greet.

Sorry, I should have been a bit clearer with my question. I assumed that's what they'd done, but was wondering if you'd overheard any particular aspects of the interaction between passenger and crew, or had simply witnessed them handing something over and that was the extent of it?

I only heard the first part of it as I needed to keep moving. The guy mentioned something along the lines of here is a gift for the crew.
