Voucher Spree

As the year ended in December last month, my HOD suggested that we use up the money by buying gift vouchers for each department staff and discontinue this TAG and MR welfare fund, which I have managed throughout the past year.

Thus, my colleague John and I braved the pouring rain to travel by foot to and fro from Borders, Kinokuniya and Takashimaya, so as to get the preferred voucher for each colleague. It was an interesting time for me, as it is the first time that I am finding out where I can buy gift vouchers at different shops and places.

Using the remainder of the welfare fund, John and I coincidently chose the same farewell card for Brenda. Reaching back to the office, I passed it around to my colleagues to write their well wishes. In addition, I also went the extra mile to cut and paste my colleagues’ photos and glued it next to their heartfelt well wishes.

My colleague Steven was shocked when he saw the ‘value added’ decorations that I had initiated! Hahahaha… I am glad the farewell card turned out well! =)
