So and so is leaving - damn, what are we going to get them? It would be really nice if we could give them a personalised memento of their time here. What do we know about them? Any funny stories?
Er, actually, um, no.
What, not one?
Well, nothing terribly funny. I mean, he's bald. He's leaving because his other half works here and she's going higher up the management tree than him. And he works in risk and control. That's it.
Perfect...
See what we did there?
We drew him with no hair. Bald, tick.
We imagined his conversation with his other half. The reason for leaving, tick.
And we majored on his control fetish. He works in controls, tick.
What was his reaction?
"I like it... it has been great working with you and the rest of the team. A true cross line of service time that LOVES controls. Hopefully we can work together again in future."
The point being that we can work with scraps to get a fantastic gift together in no time that will generate a warm and positive reception.
