it used to be, when i first started working here, that i really cared about these gift exchange things. i really did. i went out of my way to find really cool things for really cheap… and i made one hell of a $10 exchange gift.
i decided these people aren’t worth it. they don’t talk to me, they don’t care if i’m here or not, so why should i care if they like my gift or not.
so last night, i went out in the garage, and i found the “gifts for giving to people when you forgot to get them a gift” box. in it i found a coffee cup warmer that i got at target like 3 years ago on uber clearance. i might have paid $2 for it. might. i wrapped it in pretty paper with a beautiful bow… and there you have it. a gift for people i could care less about. i didn’t even check to see if it worked. it still is in all its original plastic wrappers inside the box. that should work, right?
i think the admin is a bit disappointed. i didn’t tell him what it was, but i told him i had it in the garage. i told him that i hadn’t been thinking about the gift really. there were other things on my mind. besides, most of them got the christmas cd. so, i don’t owe them anything…
hmph. i’m grouchy about this. i’m having a hard time being excited about these people… i don’t know how to break the “i make more money than you” code, and i don’t think i care to anymore. next year i’ll call in sick on gift exchange day (just like i did on halloween gift exchange day this year). it makes it much easier, because they don’t even know i’m missing. *update*
i got a snowman spoon rest. and there you go.
Look who’s talking…
