I have no idea who they are, or what exactly it is that they vend for us, but every day for the past week they've plied the IT Department with goodies. One day it was festively decorated doughnuts. Another was banana bread. One brought bags of pre-popped popcorn (mmm, caramel covered popcorn). One went healthy on us and brought a box of pears. Sadly, there was no partridge. They must have left it in the tree.
Today, it's a variety basket of crackers, cheese spread, nuts, dried fruit, and TEA! 10 glorious bags of English Breakfast tea. I was courteous and only took one. English Breakfast is one of my favorite blends, so it's amazing the box hasn't yet found its way into my desk drawer. All bets are off if it's still there tomorrow.
Speaking of tea, I'm totally stealing this from another blog I follow, but I was so impressed I had to share.
I hope you enjoy it, too.
School vendors hand out stuff like pens and calculators, note cards and book marks. Lucky you!
ReplyDeleteFun video! We usually get great stuff from vendors, but now they have to sneak it in and we have to pretend we don't know who brought it...I'm takin' lunch from Panera, or Irma's, or perhaps bagels. My point is, it's good stuff. But then, a department like ours is big business & big money. New regulations don't even let our doctors buy us presents...So they get us all $20 gift cards to Chilis and the script is they "took us to dinner."
ReplyDeleteSome rules are just stupid.
