Where I live, most people buy big water jugs because our water is really hard and gross, so either you have a water softener or you do not want to drink/make ice with it. I wouldn’t want to pay for other people to have ice, honestly.

Did you know that the ice in fast food restaurants is usually dirtier than the toilet seats?

Anoano, you seem like a judgemental douche. Woohoo name calling is fun.

Also, the office icemaker never gets cleaned, the scoop for the ice never gets cleaned, and the whole affair is just gross. Nothing pretentious about not wanting gross in yo mouth.

Nonnamus: I’m with you. I would never eat anything that has been sitting open in the office fridge or freezer. No telling what has been fallen in/how long it’s been there, etc.

I think the response telling the original note writer that they’re strange is the PA part.

When my mom was having her chemo, she had to be very careful about other people’s germs. Most people dig ice out of an ice bin with their hands, not thinking about the last time they washed their hands. She had to bring ice from home to her office. She did not, however, put a weird note on it, that I know of.

At my work we don’t have any ice trays, so yeah, if I brought in ice, I’d put a note on it too. I don’t see how a straightforward “this is mine, please don’t take it” note is PA. If it’s not labelled, someone might think that it really was for all to use.

We have an ice machine at work. Like they have in bars. (We’re in construction.) Everyone uses the scoop. In many respects, we are unrepentant heathens, but we don’t manhandle ice. Odd standards! We have them!

That only works if everyone in the office likes the taste of Brita water. Personally, I don’t. I prefer tap water. Thus you end up with the ugly situation of labelled cube trays “Brita Cubes” “Tap Cubes” and then they all get dumped in the “FUCKING ICE BIN” and mix into bastard baby cubes.

Jami — We’re sorry your brother is a misogynist. It’s best he never marries. Can you please do us a favor and make sure he doesn’t even date? Thanks.

Little known fact…..The woman who made the first ice maker created it in her own image.

I hear most of them are frigid, anyway.
