In the world of holiday office parties, Secret Santa can be a minefield of merriment or mishaps. Our tale features a Secret Santa saga that’s more tangled than Christmas lights. One employee’s previous gift-giving gaffe has left her less than jolly, while another, with a heart possibly too big for her elf-sized hat, tries to restore the festive spirit.

As the holiday cheer hangs in the balance, the office becomes a stage for a drama that would give any Christmas movie a run for its money. Let’s unwrap the layers of this festive fiasco and see if the spirit of giving can truly prevail, or if sometimes, the best gift is respecting someone’s wishes.
