At work we are looking at companies to come in and clean keyboards, mice, phones etc. during the cold and flu season. Anyways one of the guys in my group contacted a few companies a couple months ago to get quotes etc. and there was one company that never got back to him, until today.

Out of the blue they sent us a gift basket. Now comes the best\worst part. In the basket there were catalogs for a marketing company that will put your logos on pens, mice pads and clothes, a menu for a vietnamese restraunt in the south and a pen from a diffrent vietnamese restraunt. Then there was the food, we got three pieces of double bubble, a grape sucker, a halloween sized coffee crisp that was white when we opened it, a package of generic gummies and ju-jubes, a package of microwave popcorn that expired in June, no-name chicken noodle mix, Western Family halloween sized cheezies and a wetnap.

WTF were they thinking when they made this? We threw out everything, but at least the basket was nice and I brought it home for my wife cause does craft things with them.
