There are five kinds of people who participate in my gift exchange:
1) People looking to get rid of crap from their house/apartment via a sexier option than Goodwill
2) People who want the experience of a drug deal, but are either unwilling or unable to purchase/sell illicit substances and choose to mimic that experience by meeting me, a stranger, in a non-descript location--each of us armed with gift bags
3) Bored people
4) Undercover police officers checking to see if I am using this gift exchange as a cover to pass along illicit substances
5) People looking for some good, clean fun
Which one is Jen? See below.
Jen
-Profession: Not working for a paycheck
-Favorite microwave button: The one that opens the door (it's easy to push)
-You're a self-described treehugger. If nature lovers were not hugging trees, what (A) greeting would humans be offering (B) some part of nature other than trees?: Hugging Al Gore? Well, probably hugging a pet is close.
-Since you're not working for a paycheck, do people ever tell you that you're lucky with soooo much free time?: I don't get it a lot, really. [By the way], there are a lot of people in the morning yoga.
-How good are you at spotting toupees? (Excellent, very good, good, poor, not good, N/A): It's both N/A because I'm not really looking for them, but if I see one that sticks out, then it's good.
Answer from above: A combination of #1 and #5
