Subtle Hint 

Yesterday I came to work and found a little treat at my desk. As part of a United Way fund raising campaign, employees at my current client could send candy bars with a message to people. So I had one from my boss with the message "Thanks for all your hard work".

On the card, is a space for the message, the person to whom you wish it delivered, their department and mail drop location, and who it's from. All pretty standard. Then there are two check boxes:
  • Hershey's Milk Chocolate Candy Bar
  • Kudos Granola Bar (low-fat alternative)

My boss sent me a Hershey's bar. But I wonder, what does it say if someone sends you a Kudos bar? Is that a subtle hint... hey I wanted to send you a treat, but you need to lose some weight?
