Stinky Lunch
cheerful

Why do people insist on microwaving fish at the office? Perhaps they don't realize that their fellow cubicle inmates do not appreciate working in a place that smells like a wharf.

(Before anyone can say anything - wharf is not the Klingon guy in Star Trek Next Generation, who smells like lilacs, according to one episode. And I am very embarrassed that I know that.)

I agree! Totally! And the burning popcorn in the microwave thing too. What is the matter with people? It takes approximately 2 1/2 - 3 minutes to make a bag of popcorn. If you can't spare that many minutes to stand there and watch it, then don't have it! Gah!

Attending the microwave while it pops the corn is a time-honored way of shirking work! There's no call for burning popcorn at all!

I got that icon from one of my Live Journal friends, Jess79. You should find some more of them here. Enjoy!

to remedy the stench, brew a pot of coffee in the breakroom. The smell of the coffee will help to clear away the other smells. We have a coffee pot in the ADMIN breakroom just for this reason.

They only make chunky-style coffee here, which doesn't have the pleasing aroma of smooth coffee.
