So most of the people that read this blog know that I work for a major insurance company during the day (well, and sometimes into the night time). As I am coming around on being there 5 years, accompanied with the feeling of time moving WAY too quickly, I received in the mail a package from the home office. Department of Employee Recognition (I envision guys with binoculars saying "there's an employee, and there...and there...and there..."). In the package was the catalogue for employee gifts meant to commemorate the 5 years of working your ass off for The Man. Amongst the collection of useless crap that would make The Sharper Image and Brookstone look bad, was this bear. By way of Liz, I'm told that it is a famous artist in the figurine world, and that she used to sell tons of similar items at Disneyland, but please - this is the saddest, most depressing piece of kitch I have ever seen.
Oh, by the way, I selected a new briefcase.
