A curious assortment

Today I collected the 2020 appreciation gift from my company. (they asked for our sizes last year, and it took some time to prepare)

At the collection area, they give us the box, get us our jacket, and let us scratch a card for a lucky draw. My card said "A", and I received a mug, which is the same as the Christmas gift that they gave us in December last year. (more on the mug later) There was also a "thank you" card which means you don't get an extra gift, and I wonder what else there was!

So here is what we received:

A jacket, a pillow (same design!), a first aid kit (which only has hand sanitizer and face masks inside...so it's more like a toiletries bag), a "folding desktop phone stand" (I like this one), a 3-in-1 charging cable (we already have one in white, so this is less special to me), Ferrero Rocher chocolates, and two boxes of instant meals (is this supposed to be a course meal? There are no drinks though :P )

In this next photo, I moved the things around a bit. The jacket's hood actually says "pursue". I don't really get why...

With this curious assortment, I guess MSI would like us to be able to go camping, and while comfortably holding our pillow, we can still be well-camouflaged! We can put safety items into our first aid kit, and we can enjoy a 3-course meal (appetizer, main course, dessert) just by boiling a pot of water (those instant meals come in packs that are reheatable by plunging them into boiling water). No drinks, but you already have your pot of water! As for the charging cable and the phone stand, these will allow us to have entertainment if we bring along enough power banks...

On a side note, I snapped a selfie of myself trying on the jacket. Because the black polo-tee that I'm wearing was also from the company (for my department instead of the whole company), and it is an XL size. Someone was saying they didn't believe I could wear XL, but it was a perfect fit (we chose the sizes based on the sizing chart). The jacket is an XS (also chosen with a sizing chart), and as you can see, they are both a perfect fit. :D

Now back to the Santa mug... I realized that I hadn't posted photos of it! So here's our Christmas gift:

The other side of the mug:

There was a red version too...with a different expression on Santa's face. I only found out when a friend posted a photo of his mug on Facebook. This time, I got the white one again. I wonder whether I can get someone with two red mugs to swap with me :P
