I Drew the Worst Fortune at Our Halloween Team Retreat to a Temple

Just before Halloween, our intern, Vivian Blake, suggested visiting a monastery for our team outing.

I checked the distance and was about to turn her down.

“Our budget is five thousand dollars. Why don’t we just have a nice meal somewhere nearby?”

Vivian shot back, visibly worked up.

“Who cares about some fancy meal? Do you know that monastery is offering a limited-edition fortune stick? Whoever draws the best fortune will have good luck all year!”

“We should try it! Maybe we can bring the company some luck, too!”

Seeing how excited my coworkers were, I agreed.
