Random List: The Work Fridge

A random list of items I’m going to assume that, as long as they are not clearly marked with a name, are available for public consumption:

  1. Leftovers from the client meeting, including sodas, sandwiches, cookies and potato chips
  2. Leftover birthday cake from that afternoon’s (or yesterday’s) celebration
  3. Parmesan cheese
  4. Salad dressing
  5. Frozen meals belonging to the temp used to work here six months ago

A random list of items I’m going to assume you should not touch, under any circumstances:

  1. Anything clearly marked with someone’s name (who still works here)
  2. Anything in a paper bag, grocery bag, lunch bag or what looks like a lunch bag
  3. Restaurant leftovers from a meal you did not order or pay for, even if a name is not on them
  4. The bottle of hot sauce marked “No, Seriously, I’ll Stab You.” (I love that.)
  5. Whole fruit that did not come from your pantry, which cannot be marked with a name without ruining the food and/or poisoning the eventual eater.

I leave it up to the group mind: Am I off base here? Did I forget anything?

    List 1:
    3. We have parmesan cheese? That would have been nice last week.
    4. Salad dressing is totally community. I cannot eat that whole bottle of Ranch before it expires. If you can, you either a) eat a lot of rabbit food or b) have a problem.
    List 2:
    Yes across the board. But I’d still like to know who ate my apple 2 weeks ago. (I really wanted it.)
