One of our biggest clients is Target Corp. Some asshat over there schedules two-hour conference calls (MINIMUM two-hour calls) late on Friday afternoons.

But couldn’t you just hand wash your mug after you were done with it, dry it with a paper towel and take it back to your desk? That’s what I do, and no one’s ever stolen my mug. Have people forgotten that hand washing still exists?

Think again, Lil. My coworker has a mug with a picture of her and her husband on it, and she has trouble tracking it down — people take it and use it. I don’t drink coffee, but i Think I’d choose a plain mug or one with an ad on it over something that obviously is a personal belonging of a coworker.

Agreed, Pixy. I was just making a random comment, though. Not at all arguing about the note’s inclusion on the site.

So, I had this Buzz Lightyear glass that I loved with all my heart. I realize this makes me sound 8 years old, but whatever.
Anyway, our company moved and on the moving day somebody set my glass on the floor along with other kitchen crap (we were planning on washing it before re-using) and another somebody accidentally kicked it, shattering it in a million pieces. I was so disappointed to hear about it that I didn’t have the heart to even get angry. I just sighed in frustration.
The point I was getting to is: I’d rather somebody stole it and left it to me one year later. At least I’d have it right now.
I miss you, Buzz :’(

It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion, It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed. The hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning. It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion

I can help both you guys out. Scroll up. See the yellow sticky note with the site name in it? Look directly to the right. “funny (if not necessarily “passive-aggressive”) notes from pissed-off people”

This site, and much of the rest of the world, does not seem to recognize the difference between passive and passive aggressive.

I agree; this note lacks the necessary aggressive touch for it to be a passive aggressive note.

But it’s that dish you should look out for. Always running off with utensils. You’d think it was Jack Harkness or something.

Okay, how about going to Color Me Mine and making the ugliest mug with your name on it for way too much money? One no one would steal except for an Etsy Upcycler who wants to turn it into a lamp.

My husband taught me that the trick is to never scrub the caffeine stains off. The mug is still clean, i.e. no milk or sugar to encourage life to flourish, but looks grotty. No one ever picks that mug to drink from.
