Paul from Snooze Button Dreams commented that it really gets his goat when the big girly men see that the water cooler bottle is empty, however rather than replacing it, walk away and wait for someone else to flip it.
>:|. You put a jinx on me, man.
I came into the office, fully expecting to have my hot tea before I start my routine, but guess what? There's no water in the cooler. Guess who had to flip it? Yup. I tore my back and shoulders up last night in pilates class, and I'm flipping water bottles that weigh more than my desk.
Bunch of savages.
Posted by Tiffany at January 25, 2006 07:18 AM | TrackBackSorry about that. This morning I just barely squeeked out enough for a cup of English Breakfast tea. It was a close call.

Clapping.
Bunch of savages.
Posted by: karsh at January 25, 2006 09:27 AMThink about how gross and worse it could be...especially if you "trust" another person to make coffee, change the water bottle, et cetera can also be the same person who doesn't believe in hand-washing or dig/dug/picked at nose/mouth/scab/"other."
Posted by: Michael at January 25, 2006 12:28 PMAh, but see, Michael, the Tiffany takes precautions! Because our office bathrooms aren't particuarly well sound-proofed, I know exactly who doesn't wash their hands :). I avoid their contaminated yuckity yucks and drink my water out the tap if need be.
I've also been known to wipe down spigots and taps with disinfecting wipes.
