Did You Forget Your White Elephant Gift?

Share News:

white elephantIf ever there was an event designed for Wednesday WTF, it is the office white elephant exchange. I mean, unless someone specifically says, “We’re giving nice gifts this year,” it’s a seasonal opportunity designed for making people open gift bags and say, “Why?”

But maybe you’re stuck. Maybe you forgot. Or maybe you didn’t forget but you’re a planner and well, if you buy this stuff now you won’t have to remember it next December, only maybe you’ll forget which closet you stashed it in and tear the house apart and never find it, buy something else, and then exactly one week and 45 minutes later find it, exactly where you placed it, in December 2019, when you were a more optimistic person.

Maybe. I mean, I don’t know your life.

At any rate, we’ve found a few Wednesday WTF-approved white elephant exchange gifts for the planner or the procrastinator, or anyone in between.
