Community Activity Proposal: What to Give as a Leftover Egg Gift | Huh! Actually, I think it's better not to send
At the beginning of the month, several high school classmates I still contacted held an annual Christmas gift exchange event, but I didn't go. Although the exchange of gifts is just a form, the point is that the old classmates rarely get together to be happy and lively, but I said to them directly:
Don't ask me for gift exchange activities, just ask me after dinner.
So, I've never been in a gift-exchange game.
The packaged gift is like a blind box. Each person spends 500 yuan to prepare, which represents their personal feelings. However, you don’t know who the gift you choose with your heart will be exchanged. Not everyone will think that your gift is affordable and easy to use, but for the sake of courtesy, the other party Some scenes may be said:
God I love it!
I just need it!
(The following 10,000 words are omitted)
But what about your fate after your gift is delivered? For example, it may be idle; now it is popular to dispose of it, and if it is rarely used and takes up space, it may become resource recycling after a while. After all, it is impossible for a person who picks a gift to participate in a gift exchange to buy a practical thing that everyone can get. I'm really afraid of receiving celebrity toilet water, washi tape, hand accounts and the like.
What if instead of exchanging gifts, you give gifts to specific objects? Especially before giving gifts, I have observed for a long time, what might the other party need? Or ever reveal what he wants/needs? You bought it and gave it away. and then? Wouldn't the gift flow to a third party?
In fact, as far as my gift giving experience is concerned, many people show what they want/need, but soon after they get my gifts, they actually end up in the hands of third parties. But isn't that what the other party said he wanted?
Although after the gift is sent, the ownership belongs to the other party, but the other party was full of wants/needs at the beginning, but after the gift was taken over, it changed hands and became a gift from a third party. People who want to give gifts, or who just hate them, to me, cheating is worse than an affair , no! Worse than the other person spoiling my gift is to deceive me, you want, you need. If you give it away after you get it, it proves that the other party doesn't really want/need it, but don't want it for nothing.
Tell a ghost story.
When I was still working as a full-time assistant in the mansion, within half a year of my tenure, I desperately saved money, worked as a tutor, and paid off the student loan for the master's class. After paying off the student loan for the master's class, I finally had some disposable income. I just happened to send a colleague to ask a relative in the United States to buy GNC. Ask me Do you want to buy them together. At that time, I thought that I had reached the age of maintenance, and I also wanted to try the effect of GNC ginkgo on reading and enhancing memory, so I followed it and bought a multivitamin and ginkgo to eat.
Who knows, my mother found out that I bought a bottle of ginkgo, and was curious to ask me about the effect, and then said that he felt that his memory had deteriorated recently, and he also wanted to buy it. I said that the next time there is a group purchase in the office, I will buy it for him, so I followed another group purchase. It just arrived in December. The ginkgo I bought was a Christmas gift for my filial piety and gave it to my wife.
Seeing the old lady tearing down the bottle of ginkgo to eat, I thought to myself that I, an unfilial daughter who never married and never gave birth, could give him some kind of thought, making him feel that I still care a little bit about him. Who knows, three days later, he and her husband were in the study room, and he said a dialogue without raising or lowering the volume deliberately, but I could hear it clearly in the room five meters away:
Did the bottle of ginkgo you give me work?
Eh I don't know! Just eat and see!
It turns out that my filial Christmas gift was taken by the client to honor my husband! I was so pissed that I couldn't sleep that night at the thought of my present going into the belly of a nasty old man. It turns out that you don't need to use my gift to improve your memory. To put it so nicely, it is a scam to put it bluntly.
It's not that I don't want to let the old lady share gifts to other people's family members, but this family member doesn't deserve to be so kind to him at all, so I gave up my gift like this, and I didn't come to ask me, which made me feel super uncomfortable. respect.
Do you have any presents for Christmas? Of course there is no next time. Never.
In other words, in the past two years, the old man has lost his mind, and the old lady gradually cleaned up the "relics" in his study. She found a whole paper bag of health food, which was bought and not eaten until it expired. My bottle of ginkgo is also one of them. It looks like it was thrown aside without eating a few. More than ten years have passed since I bought that bottle of ginkgo and found it to this fate.
Isn't this the bottle I gave you to eat? Don't think that I don't know, you only eat it for a few days and then deliver it to him. I keep saying that you need it, and I also respond to my own thoughts. What is the result? You're here to give me someone I hate and make me feel cheated. Looking at this pile of expired health care products, whether he bought it himself, you bought it, or I bought it and you gave it to him, he has ruined it.
In the past two years, my mother finally found out that I was unhappy because of the Christmas gift incident. But he couldn't even hold his face to apologize. Of course, my mother took the things I bought and gave them to others all night, as her own achievements, not just Christmas gifts.
When thinking about giving gifts, you have to consider whether the other party likes it or not. It is not practical. Even if the other party reveals that he has certain needs, it is not necessarily his true words. Gift giving is one of the most tiring things in the world, not just Christmas gifts. , any gift is the same. I really want to express my heart, I think there is a best way, that is:
(The following lightning protection)
May wish to invite each other to have a good meal! Afternoon tea in the hotel, Banban, Benben high-grade teppanyaki, whatever you think is delicious, or you can ask him what he wants to eat and I will invite you, and the budget will be discussed first. A physical gift may flow to a third party, but the food you eat is the least likely to betray you. After the other party can't eat it, he can dig it out and pass it to others, right?
Happy leftovers!
