Have a safe holiday…

December 21st, 2006 Leave a comment Go to comments

There was a Yankee Swap at work yesterday. I didn’t participate because I always get shafted with a color-changing fiber-optic flower, a 6-pack of fruitcakes, or some other equally dreadful gift. Most of the people did participate though, I think 40 in all. Most of the gifts were booze, as could be expected. at least, the gifts that weren’t dunkin donuts gift cards. There were a few really random things (an office space DVD inside a massive pile of jello comes to mind), and one guy even ended up with a box of condoms.

Funny thing about getting shafted with something you don’t want at a yankee swap. You tend to still make the best of things.

…like decorating the company christmas tree with your gift…

    pity there’s no pictures of the condom-wrapped phone handset.

        turns out the golgafrinchams needed those phone sanitizers after all.
