New Zealand design agency Tenfold Creative added a little mystery to the holiday season by sending out unbranded boxes with a [Christmas gift](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gift-of-weed) inside.

The box is white and minimal, reading, "We know it's hard to switch from work to holiday mode. So, here's a little something to help you adjust." Inside, the box holds a pie graph explaining how time normally spent at the office should be translated into time spent relaxing. For instance, your afternoon coffee pick-me-up should turn into an afternoon nap during the holidays. Similarly, time wasted waiting for the printer should now be spent waiting for the tide to change. The perfect gift for any workaholic!

The pie chart is accompanied by a [chocolate version](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exquisite-holiday-chocolates), so you can break off a piece as you're enjoying these recommended [holiday activities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lindor-holiday-experience).
