The Elf's Nightmare

There were six elves in my unit. We all considered ourselves passionate creatives. The only skills needed were punctuality, projection and the ability to seem happy even when freezing. After work, we could be found at the red line on kingley street drinking late into the night. There was no sleep, which normally meant you got the next day off. If mummy and daddy are rich enough, kids can spend the night at hamley's. They arrive when it shuts on friday, and all night the store is theirs. And where there are elves, father christmas isn't far behind. Despite working late all night, i was called in the next day because father christ Christmas was coming
