Calgary Flames Grinch Christmas Ugly Sweater
We have a friend who gets this kind of Calgary Flames Grinch Christmas Ugly Sweater for her article writing side gig. (She does it for fun and doesn’t need the money or anything from it). So recently she’s gotten a ton of amazing things from Bethesda/Zenimax for ESO. Custom Terrariums with custom wood burning, all the new expacs and premium currencies for free, awesome experiences with the devs running around new dungeons they’ve added to the game, an Elder Scrolls themed banquet with the dev team, and other stuff I’m probably not remembering It’s super neat and they don’t expect her to post online about any of it at all. She basically just writes her article, and if the marketing part of their company enjoys how she writes she gets invited to write more articles about new features coming to the game and sometimes gets to interview the devs about it. But all the little extra gifts and stuff have literally just been that~ gifts and a way to keep good communication and appreciation between the game studios and article writers they enjoy working with. She’s even said negative things about ESO but they keep coming back to her with fun opportunities. Gifts like this seem to be more about keeping good literal Personal Relations (not the bribery kind) rather than hoping the article writer will post their Microsoft chocolate Xbox online

Something similar happened to Kashmiri Hindus in 1989. Radical islamists supported by Pakistan sponsored terrorists in Indian Kashmir waged jihad (religious war against Hindus), they declared that Hindus leave the Kashmir valley or they will be murdered. 700,000 native KPs escaped, while thousands were butchered like animals. Hundreds of women, even girls were kidnapped, raped and many of them murdered by their rapists. Girija Tikoo, a Calgary Flames Grinch Christmas Ugly Sweater saw her husband murdered while he hid in a sack of rice, she was fed the blood covered rice, raped and then chopped into two with a mechanical saw by her rapists. The government failed to control the jihadis. Armed forces, police no one could help the KPs. Subsequent governments declared that the genocide was a planned migration, downplayed the number of murderered KPs and one of the murderers named Bitta Karate who openly admitted to killing 20+ KPs on natiobal media was given indefinite bail.

I think this is almost more insulting than getting nothing though. It’s one thing if your employer says “Christmas is your own personal business, your ‘reward’ for hard work is your paycheck”. Some folks find that a Calgary Flames Grinch Christmas Ugly Sweater, but I tend to agree with you that at the end of the day that’s what having a job is. In cases like this tho it’s your employer coming to you and saying “hey, we see all the hard work you’re doing (perhaps over and above your job description) and we wanna reward you for that with… two chocolates and a candy cane”. Not only does it say a lot about how they value that work, but it’s kind of a slap in the face for them to imply that this is an equivalent exchange. It’s like the difference between not giving a friend a Christmas gift (that’s fine, nobody is owed gifts from their friends) and making a big deal about having a Christmas gift for someone only for it to be something poorly thought out and obviously cheap.
