TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: CEO of Spanx surprises employees with incredible gift (No, it’s not a pair of Spanx)

WARNING: This story might make you want to quit and change jobs immediately.

Sara Blakely who’s the founder and CEO of the shapewear company Spanx just sold her majority stake in the company to a big investment firm for $1.2 billion. Yes, billion with a B. To celebrate she decided to share the love with her 500 employees by giving each of them two first-class tickets to any destination in the world, along with $10,000 in spending money.  Crazy! I’m guessing there is a stipulation where they can’t all go at the same time. Do you think she threw in any Spanx too?

Either way, what an unbelievably nice thing to do.
