The industry gifting season seems to finally be upon us, as we've received a couple of reports that UTA's present to assistants lucky enough to regularly handle the agency's calls have arrived; unfortunately, they seem to have squandered an opportunity for gift-giving creativity, falling back on last year's Wonka-inspired Lucky Bar (pictured—feel free to send in a picture of this year's version for comparison purposes), perhaps hoping to clear out some boxes of spare chocolate they had left over from Christmas '05. Says a reader:
Just received my UTA Christmas Gift. Looks like they went back to last year's Golden Ticket theme. Who knows if there's a check buried in one of these things but the one I received had two passes to AMC theaters. I suppose that's appropriate. However, if the fine print on the back of these passes means that I can only get into movies with UTA clients, I'll be a little pissed.[important to note: I didn't receive a gift from UTA last year... So it's possible that this is last year's gift that was lost in the mailroom.... For a year....]
Still no word about anyone who's unwrapped a bar to discover a Golden Ticket, finding themselves $100 to $5,000 richer (are there even money prizes this year, or are movie passes all anyone's getting?) and a prime candidate for a parking structure mugging at the hands of a greedy, call-rolling peer. Keep those gift reports coming: nothing keeps us warmer than you scoffing at associates that think you're only worth a plastic luggage tag.
