The Tale Of Victor The Elf


All the elves were hard at work in Santa's workshop ... all but one, that is. Victor the newest elf was playing with all of the toys that had already been built. He didn’t like to work. Not one bit. But he did love to play. He was short he had big ears and always wore a green suit every day and a green hat. He was the one disobedient elf up at the north pole.
One day he was bouncing a basketball in the toy shop instead of stuffing bears like he should have been doing and by accident he knocked over a bunch of paint cans. The other elves got mad at him and told him to clean up the mess or leave and not come back until he was changed for the better. So victor walked out of the shop
Victor felt happy. He wanted to play for a living and never work again. So he played in the snow all day. When he tried to enter the house for dinner he was told he was given food but kicked outside as he didn’t have the job. Out in the cold he ate his food and then spent sometime building an igloo for himself. The igloo turned out to be his new home.
After spending a week in the igloo outside in the cold victor realized he was depressed and wanted to work and not play as much.
After apologizing to the other elves he was given his job back stuffing bears and became the best bear stuffer ever. He was still playful but only when appropriate such as after work was done for the day.
