Has anyone else received his/her Chusok present from the respected employer yet?
Mine showed up this morning. It's a box of 20 cups of mushroom soup. I guess that is what you call it. You pour in some water or milk and eat the mushrooms (the long, thin, very white ones with the little ball on top). It could have been worse. It could have been something I couldn't give away. 
Now if my stove would just get here so I can cook! |

When I was a university student, a co-worker was visiting and expressed surprise at seeing several cans of Spam in my cupboard. "You must really like that stuff," he said.
"Well, it's OK, but what happens is my dad uses it for catfish bait. If the fish aren't biting, he gives it to me."
For some reason, he thought this was incredibly funny.
Aahhh, Spam, glorious Spam. Anybody else love the Budajiggae at Nolboo? These folks really know how to cook up canned meat! |

My boss gives me absolutely nothing. In two jobs I have never received a Chusok gift. Is it for real and I'm just being unlucky?

We don't appear to be getting one this year; am slightly worried that this is a sign of financial difficulties for the boss... 
Here's a tip: unwanted chusok/new year presents can be pased on to security guards (for those of you that have them). It might make them go a bit easier on you next time you screw up the recycling!!! |
