🎄 Day 25 — Candy Cane Shortage Scandal

It finally happened. The North Pole is officially out of candy canes. 🍭😱

The workshop has descended into chaos. morale is low, cocoa is unsweetened, and every elf is blaming everyone else.

🍬 Peppermint Politics

Pep swears Logistics lost an entire shipment. Logistics says Pep “miscounted.” I say they’re both lying, and someone’s building a personal stash behind the wrapping station.

🧁 Black Market Mint

Reports are circulating of elves trading candy canes for marshmallows and extra break time. One elf was caught trying to melt them down for peppermint syrup. Innovation or crime? You decide.

🎅 Santa’s Pep Talk

Santa tried to calm everyone down with a “spirit of giving” speech. It lasted two minutes before someone shouted, “Then give us candy canes!” He’s been in hiding ever since.

I’ll be honest—morale’s hanging by a peppermint thread. Until the next shipment arrives, I’m keeping my cocoa plain and my gossip spicy.
