Things that Explode in the Workplace Refrigerator
I cannot believe how many rules we have at our workplace about the REFRIGERATOR! Yes, it’s pretty sad and equally ANNOYING when you get the messages in your Outlook inbox about the refrigerator! I mean really people… are you serious?
Our workplace refrigerator has staged a revolt. We received the following demands from our refrigerators:
smelly things in the refrigerator will explode upon entering;
green & unrecognizable items will grow into purple people eaters;
-
the entire shelf will fall on your foot if food placement exceeds 1 lb;
-
spills will be used to seal containers shut forever;
-
unlabeled food will be abducted by the recycling containers;
-
repeat offenders will receive a recording from their mothers reminding them that ‘Mom doesn’t live here’;
-
termination of refrigerator usuage will be eminent;
AND
-
a list of refrigerators abusers will be posted on the Intranet & Youtube!
Come on peeps… I hate to see this happen to us? Do you think we can compromise with the refrigerator & meet its demands of being tidy & conscientious? These messages are killing me! Can we just act like we’re not at home? I heard that the next phase of the Refrigerator Revolt includes a walk out!!

I drank the Kool Aid and bought into the ‘Platinum Rule’ of treating others as you want to be treated.
