It appears the elf suffered from Pre-Holiday Burnout (PHB), caused by the effort required to make gifts for everyone in the world. He also suffered a broken toe when he dropped a toy anvil on his foot. Mr. Claus consented to sit for an interview with a reporter from WILBUR (World Insurance-Leading Business Underwriting Report). The elf, identified only as Ernie, declined to be interviewed. What follows is a transcript of the interview with Mr. Claus, edited for brevity and clarity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WILBUR:<\/strong> How are you feeling about Ernie\u2019s claim, Mr. Claus?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Santa:<\/strong> Look. I know this is supposed to be the season of giving. But all this claim is giving me is grief and <em>agita<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WILBUR:<\/strong> You have the proper insurance coverage, don\u2019t you?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Santa:<\/strong> Well, yeah. But managing two different claims is a nightmare.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WILBUR:<\/strong> What do you mean?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Santa:<\/strong> Ernie filed one claim for physical injury for the broken toe. That caused him to file another claim for the PHB. Now I have to manage both of them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WILBUR:<\/strong> What if your claims system tracked claims by incident, recording every claim resulting from that one incident?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Santa:<\/strong> Right. And what if reindeer could fly?<\/p>\n<p><strong>WILBUR:<\/strong> Uh \u2026 they can.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Santa:<\/strong> Okay. I forgot. But where do I find an incident-based claims system?<\/p>\n<p><strong>WILBUR:<\/strong> In the cloud.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Santa:<\/strong> You mean with the reindeer?<\/p>\n<p><strong>WILBUR:<\/strong> Not exactly. It\u2019s called Cloud Claims. I\u2019ll get you the information.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Santa:<\/strong> Thank you. But I have to get back to work now. I\u2019m short one elf.
