This is just stupid

Its Sunday night, & I think this weekend there was a real run on plastic cutlery, because when I went to eat my lunch I discovered that the only thing left in the breakroom was plastic knives. No spoons, and no forks – I ended up stamping down my “eeewwww” reflex & fishing a spoon out of one of the garbage cans & washing it thoroughly before using it to eat my lunch.

 

This is just stupid – I find it aggravating that no one seems to restock in there on the weekends, and all the storage cabinets are locked so we can’t refill things ourselves as needed. The vending machines get emptied out & the money cache fills up to the point where it won’t accept any more money.

 

I’ve already brought my fat-bottomed coffee travel mug to work, & have begun refilling a 20 oz. dew bottle off Freak’s 2-liter’s from home to hit my daily dew jonse. I’m now seriously considering hitting Pal-Do world & 99-Ranch market (& possibly that Korean “home store” at Hwy 99 & 168^th) in search of one of those little bento boxes the other girls in 4^th grade had, with the Hello Kitty & a little silverware compartment with a sliding lid on it… so I can have my chopsticks and a fork waiting if the disposables fail me again.  It would be nice to find one that actually had Hello Kitty on it… although I’m willing to settle for any obnoxiously cute design as long as it has the compartment & is microwave/dishwasher safe.
