Tis the season for the stories of gift giving.
Best gift, worst gift, etc.
I’m only going to admit this once, so pay attention.
I did once give the very worst gift – only I didn’t really know it at the time that it would end up to be so ironic.
First the excuses; I was young (22ish?). I was making $8.25/hour. It was a gift to a co-worker.
And some background; One of my all time favorite places to shop was and still is Cost Plus.
The Co-worker was very much into wine and fine wines. This is going to end badly.
The finale;
I gifted two bottles of wine to said co-worker; A Reindeer White and Reindeer Red.
So, Gary, if you have found me online after all these years. I am sorry. I really am a weenie for gifting you two bottles of cheap wine.
Is there a moral to the story? Yeah, there is – no matter how much you like or dislike the people you work with, never, ever, ever, buy them cheap wine. One day you might end up being a winemaker and regret the gift you gave.
