Even though Christmas was 3 days ago, there is still time for some surprising presents. Take today, for example. I had to go in to the store to give one of my associates her review. As always, I checked out the paint desk just to see how things were going since it is my responsibility, even on my days off. I was quite surprised, after giving the review, to find a present waiting for me by one of the tinters. It looked to be a box of Whitman's chocolates - I love candy, however the cellophane wrapping had been removed. Ah well, one of my associates had gotten the box for Christmas and was sharing it with me. I was totally floored to find no candies inside. Rather, there was a very funny gag gift. You see I have an associate who looks quite a lot like Santa. Occasionally, on days when business is slow, I'll suggest that he might want to go out and dance at the highway wearing a Santa thong. It's all in fun. Anyway, that's what they gave me for Christmas,a scarlet thong.
Actually, it's a before and after present: what the thong looks like before Christmas and what it looks like after Christmas (as represented by some tasty, red licorice).
Needless to say, I turned as red as the thong, because it was a bit embarrassing. I also laughed really, really loud because it was also very, very funny. It also demonstrates the great rapport I have with my associates, that they could give me something like this knowing I would find it hysterical.
