msfledermausOne of the perks of working on Mondays is that it's the Beverage Dictator's day off. In theory, you can make an entire pot of coffee without the Beverage Dictator having a hissy-fit. Occasionally he'll come in on his day off, glowering and fuming and concocting a pot of crazy for all to enjoy, but today wasn't one of those days...
Today I was having lunch with one of the control guys. He asked me if I'd seen the new note on the fridge in the facilities office. I hadn't, so we went on a field trip to their office. Sure enough, taped inside the fridge was, "To the scofflaw raiding our food! Cease and desist or there will be repercussions! This means YOU!"
For the longest time, the Beverage Dictator has had a bad habit of stealing other guard lunches, usually in a fairly gross and horrible fashion. Usually my lunches are safe--he doesn't like raw vegetables or anything too spicy, and I usually have both in my lunch. But if you had something appealing like spaghetti from home or leftover pizza, it's wise to disguise it well, or you'll find half the bowl gone or the toppings ripped off your slice. This behavior tends to fluctuate, and with the economy going from bad to worse, it's escalated--he's now desperate enough to raid other departments...
"Did you hear the latest?" The Control guy asked. "Someone brought in a jar of peanut butter to go with his lunch, and he was eating out of the jar with a spoon. The Beverage Dictator got really mad at him and yelled, "Now nobody ELSE can eat out of that jar!" It cracked up the entire breakroom, apparently...
Ew. Ew ew ew. Ew ew ewwwwww...
