Exactly what I said. OP please do this.

trendyprettygir:
Get a very very good artist to do a pencil art work for the man and his wife.

You need a very good picture of them to pull this work. The pencil work should be big and in a frame that they can hang.

Buying them expensive wine or champagne makes no sense. They will drink it today and forget. But a pencil art work they will remember forever...

Make a portrait of him or him and his wife. A drawing or a painting. They will value it.
Op, go for Trendyprettygirl and Missidy's advise.

Those rich folks always value cards, portraits and wine more than anything.

Make a quality portrait of him and his wife, and add a bottle of good wine when presenting it.

Then try as much as possible to stay in touch with them even after you're done with your service. Who knows, the man might through his connection, help get you a job after you're done.

Thanks sire. I had a little time with madam ( like 2 weeks) when they came back after a vacation in the USA. She travelled back to US again. I've been staying with Oga for like 6 months and counting. I'm really confused here! I've been chopping free food all this while, they literally pay for my TP to my PPA, to and fro. So you can imagine how privileged I am, and how I really feel about showing appreciation to them.
Be humble, loyal and respectful to them for life

You may earn a trip abroad from your loyalty to me

Dont ever give them to doubt your loyalty

Don't be in a hurry to gift them still hand around after service you may get a job there and still leave with them

Dont ever ever bring in a male or female friend there

That will be your greatest offence

All they want from you is your loyalty, simple

Make yourself available to them in case they need someone to trust with on an errand or anything

An art work will be just great.
Rich people appreciate gift more, no matter how small it is.
They are use to giving others without expecting anyone to give them, because most people feel they have it all.

Doesn't matter whether they're made or not, even the rich appreciate the smallest of gifts.

You have to do the first thing, which is to thank and appreciate first the husband and head of the home then his wife. Saying thank you would open lots of doors for you that you can't phantom and also helps to keep the relationship smooth.

Other things can follow if you so wish to appreciate them with item of gift but I don't think they need it, but they do need your thank you.
