People Keep Surprising Me

So this past Tuesday night I was at an event for work (the joys of doing what I do). Now these events can be enjoyable and other times can be just boring as hell. They are meant to be networking events.

Well this event had some great prizes to give away I have to say. A MotoQ cell phone, Sponsorship events, a restaurant gift certificate, etc. Now our main competitor (I won’t mention their name here) was there and had donated the restaurant gift certificate. Last year I had won some of their prizes and I thought this year I would be funny to win it again . Well when they chose the name for the certificate, the person who donated it won. I thought cool, he’ll just ask for them to pick another name instead, but I was SHOCKED to see him actually keeping the gift he donated. I’m sure I wasn’t the only that noticed, but come on, if you are going to donate a gift, donate it, don’t keep it in the end.
