A woman in the US revealed that she filed a complaint with Human Resources after receiving a "strange" Secret Santa gift from an anonymous colleague at her workplace.

Participating in this annual secret game of your job can be a real success or a huge failure depending on who randomly selects your name.

Maybe you'll get a gift from a colleague who knows you very well and is able to get you something thoughtful, or maybe you'll get a regular bottle of alcohol, or socks. You just never know.

Either way, it's taken for granted that it's the thought that counts. However, this saying holds true up to a point, as one woman received such a "strange" gift that she ended up reporting the entire situation to Human Resources.

So what kind of gift could be so “disgusting” that it warrants a trip to the human resources office? Something completely offensive or inappropriate?

It turned out to be something even stranger.

Unsure whether she was being ungrateful or had a valid point with her reaction, the woman sought a second opinion from the internet.

Taking part in the online forum Mumsnet, the woman shared images of each of the gifts she received along with the comment: "I picked up my Secret Santa from work today and I'm disgusted."

The woman went on to explain how her gifts included expired chocolates, expired nail polish and socks that looked "worn out".

"I'm really disappointed by this and I'm extremely confused," she added.

The woman was also not alone in her reaction, with users largely agreeing that it was unacceptable to gift a colleague used and expired items.

The gift is so strange that it might even seem like part of a bad joke.

“Blimey! What did the other lucky employees get… or do you think someone is trying to tell you something,” one person replied, while a second commented: “I think it’s just crap they found in their closet. Maybe they forgot to buy something and had to try something last minute.”

Others speculated whether or not the gift could have been from someone struggling for money, with one person writing: "I highly doubt someone deliberately chose to do this instead of spending in stores."
