This series is really running away with me. And my 3rd post of the month too - must be some kind of record. Let's get straight to the hate. Hey, that could be my new motto.
We get free tea and coffee here at work. Thankfully. Without my hourly cup of tea god only knows what kind of raving psychotic I'd be. I know what you're thinking, but you're wrong - I do get worse.
So this much is good. But what is people's problem with leaving things the way you find them?
You got the milk OUT of the fridge, right? You poured it into your drink, right? You understand that dairy produce needs to be kept chilled or it turns manky, right? You have to WALK PAST the fridge again to leave the little kitchen area, right? So what is the mental block that means you can't put that bottle back in the fridge when you're done with it? For the love of all that's holy!
And if the bottle's empty, don't just leave it sitting there! We recycle here. Rinse it out and sit it in the crate. It takes 5 seconds to put some water in the bottle, shake it a bit and empty it out. 5 seconds! It won't kill you!
And recently there's been a few coffee incidents. I'm not sure how these happen, but somehow the sink ends up full of coffee granules. I'm not even talking just a handful that may have fallen off the teaspoon when you got it out, I'm talking a full tablespoon's worth. So how exactly does it end up in the sink instead of in your mug? I have no idea. Nobody's aim can be that bad, surely?
But that's not really the issue. The issue is that it just sits there, lining the sink. Why? It's SOLUBLE! If you turn the tap on, it will vanish! So fucking DO IT! 5 seconds! Clearly your mug is empty, so fill that up with water and slosh it into the sink, that'll clear up anything that the tap misses. It's SOLUBLE!
But no, it just sits there and stains the place until some muppet (i.e., me) comes along and does it for them. My OCD nature just can't let it stay that way. I'm not a tidy person (ask my girlfriend), but that kind of easily-cleaned mess just pisses me off. People suck.

I love your "people suck series"~
! ha ha, that sounds funny! Anyhoo, I'm gonna write about it on my blog and link to your blog if that's ok with you?? You say exactly what I think but I'm too scared to say it and I definitely wouldn't be able to say it as brilliantly as YOU! Let me know if it is ok to link to ya :o)
Go for your life, there's no reason I'd have a problem with it.
And if you want to pimp my band while you're at it, even better :)
You are officially pimped:
