25 Watt?

Looks like a coupon to Richmond, VA's now-closed 25 Watt Club would have fit the bill. Oh well.

Print these words and frame it with a cheap frame.

Some people think the glass is half full
Some people think the glass is half empty
Engineers think the glass is twice as big as it needs to be

I work in IT with software engineers and programmers and this always goes over big getting passed around at white elephant xmas parties.

Should be a hit with traffic engineers too, if your HR dept isn't gay.

My personal favorite, a set of 5 point sockets.

Don't say anything, let them think they got an awesome, handy new thing. Suggest they keep it in their car for an emergency.

It is a patient man's satisfaction because you have to wait for them to use it and realize it is completely useless for nearly everything.

$25 in scratch offs...it’s something people in that profession would never spend money on but it’s fun and they’ll enjoy it. I’m in accounting and it’s always a hit.

Get one of those James Bond pens that write upside down. They love that.

But it is a lot easier to ship to site than an actual White Elephant.
