I drew the name one Christmas of a co-worker who hated me just because she wanted to do all the work herself and administration hired me to also do that job. She rarely spoke to me except to criticize me. I would come in in the morning and say hello to her and she would respond, "Humph!" (Best way I can describe her greeting) I could have put the name back and drawn another, but I decided to keep it and do something really nice for her....I made her a quilt. Wish I could say she became my best friend, or was even a nicer person, but she never even thanked me for it or so much as mentioned it. Don't expect this gesture to change anyone (although it could), but it will make you feel better about yourself. For all I know, this woman took it home and burned it!

Never thought about her regifting! However, I can see her trashing it.
BTW, the conversation is good here! You're not being skipped over!
