oh and my second piece of anecdotal evidence is that when time traveling I noted that the friends available to hire reset each day I moved forward. I had to use the last day of hiring and playing to verify that it was those friends from whom I received gifts. Sure enough...it matched up a lot. There may be some randomness but there is also some data input from the hiring mechanism. I realize not all my hires resulted in a collection gift, but all gifts did come from someone I hired (this from a day I did not hire everyone).
