Secret SantaAh, the joy of giving anonymously. Squeal as your boss is given a porn mag for christmas. Out your colleagues with a carefully chosen Gaydar Radio compilation album, but best of all, keep quiet about picking your own name out of the hat and buy yourself something really, really expensive.
What have you given to people you hate?

Response to both QOTWsA previous job had the kind of Secret Santa where, as described in earlier posts, you either unwrap a gift, or take a gift that someone else has already unwrapped.
I initially brought an AOL CD, but thought better of it and quickly wrapped several GB worth of DAT tapes that I had found in the trash several months earlier and had no use for. Still crap, still cost me zero. I hated that job.
The gift I opened was called a "Tater Twirler" and was a potato-spinning contraption used to make curly fries. Someone "stole" it from me later in the gift exchange. I was sad, but honestly if I had kept it I probably would never have used it to this day, and that was in 2002.
Strangest place I've ever slept: In a Japanese -style garden. Like them now, even have a miniature one on my desk. But when my mother drug me to one at 13, I was so bored I refused to walk through it anymore, and went to sleep on a bench. I heard a little boy ask his Dad why I was sleeping there, and the Dad just replied "Must have been a long day".
