The House Of Odd

So it is the start of a new year and most people are back to work.
Today some kind individual brought in a lovely store bought cake and
dumped it in the break room.

The unwritten law of food in the corporate world is if you leave it
out in a common area it is fair game for every one. If you don’t want
it to disappear stick it in the fridge with your name on it.

The problem is on the table sits over half a potentially edible cake
and there is no silverware to be found. The horror. Not one fork,
knife, or plate in the entire break room. Not even the useless
plastic ones common to the office environs.

I suppose if one were desperate enough they could tear off a chunk with
their bare hands and attempt a quick getaway before any coworker were
to catch them in this food handling faux pas.

The lesson for today is always keep a spare set of utensils at your
desk just in case food appears out of nowhere.
