H2o Posted December 2, 2021 Posted December 2, 2021 In my line of work, and the position I am in, I have dealt with a lot of outside companies over the years. I have built a lot of relationships with these people at these other companies. Yesterday one of those companies took me and another guy out for lunch. After lunch was over the one of the company reps told me he had something for me and to follow him over to his vehicle. He opens his SUV, pulls out this beauty, and says this is for you. An autographed Jim Kelly Buffalo Bills jersey. I was stunned. I've been given all kinds of merchandise before. Company hats, t-shirts, lunch boxes, Yeti cups, but never anything like this. By far the coolest thing I have ever been gifted by a company I use as a supplier. Yesterday was a good day. 13 29 Quote
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted December 2, 2021 Posted December 2, 2021 That definitely exceeds the $35 gift limit in the corporate handbook 😉 3 15 1 Quote
TheBrownBear Posted December 2, 2021 Posted December 2, 2021 Unfortunately, you missed the part where the company rep signed it in his car before heading in for lunch. JK. That's an awesome gift. 2 4 Quote
teef Posted December 2, 2021 Posted December 2, 2021 it means a lot when someone goes out of their way for you like this. i did some work for a family member of an employee as a favor, and in no way expected anything in return. a few months later, he hands me a signed josh allen bills helmet. i'm looking at it in my office right now. 6 6 Quote

WotAGuy Posted December 2, 2021 Posted December 2, 2021 (edited) I would have bet $100 the kicker was going to be his milf wife was wearing it with nothing underneath and he said you could have the jersey if you could get it off her. Boom chicka boom boom Edited December 2, 2021 by WotAGuy Quote
BigdaddyinOrlando Posted December 2, 2021 Posted December 2, 2021 That’s awesome! Happy for you! Quote
947 Posted December 2, 2021 Posted December 2, 2021 Nice! I have the same jersey framed in my basement, I wish somebody would've given it to me for free... Quote
