It appears like Christmas came early for one group of fortunate staff members.
Employees at Med Center Health Environmental Services in Bowling Green, Kentucky, remained in for a surprise on Tuesday when they won $50,000 on scratch-off tickets their employer had actually bought for them as a vacation present.
“Our work Christmas celebration was early this year,” stated Shift Manager, Sheila Colter, in a release. “I had actually bought some products online, however they didn’t been available in before the celebration, so I chose to get Scratch-offs rather.”
