RN...Twinkie...sometimes my cattiness amazes even me. RN...Chili...we actually just got a new fridge...and it's not too bad...I go through and just start tossing shit...I don't even open the bags...everything goes! (That's usually when I'm throwing a fit)

RN I think it's great that you tossed the dishes. I've threatened to do that at home too if they can't put them in the dishwasher. I am not the maid here. Does anyone ever say anything to you about it? Or are they very afraid? LOL

RN, I just saw the commercial for Night at the Museum. That sure looks like a good family movie! (Ben Stiller and Robin Williams)

RN LOL Scooterrific! Want to buy a clue? I wonder what would happen if you stopped tossing stuff. How long do you think it would take before they cleaned up after themselves.

RN, Chili...I've thought about it...but I have to go in there for coffee and I just can't stand it. Mondays are bad...because the dishwasher was run over the weekend, and the person (I'm working on finding out who it is) who comes in and makes the coffee, unlocks, opens, and removes the coffee pot from the dishwasher of clean dishes and then closes it back up. Royally pisses me off.

RN, I did the tossing thing on Thanksgiving Day. I cooked a turkey breast using Rachael Ray's recipe, mashed potatoes, corn, and rolls for Travis and I. Travis was playing at a friend's house and got home late and dinner had been ready for an hour. When I cook a meal, I expect folks to be courteous enough to eat it when it's ready, so being a little perturbed I didn't take it too well when he got home and then complained about the potatoes. RN, Travis ended up having a turkey lunch meat and cheese sandwich for dinner. Oh, and RN, the dogs are still raving about the turkey breast.

RN I think I found that person for you.
I used to be the only one who cleaned the coffee pot at my old office. I finally stopped and bought my own coffee maker for my cubicle. It was so disgusting when I quit that job. I don't think anyone else ever washed it again. Nasty.

RN LOL Native_Texan. I feel the same way. I planned big dinners two different times at my house for my boys and their significant others. No one showed up on time for either. That was 3 years ago and I haven't done it since. Now they wonder why I don't ever have them for dinner.

RN, what was so funny is that I've heard of other people doing it and saying how good it felt but all I could of was what a waste of food and while I have been tempted many times I never could have carried through with it. I have to say it was very cathartic. RN, did I mention that I had already had my dinner?

RN I have never had the nerve to toss it all but I have stopped doing the work. I have one son now who wants to have dinner here with his family and they bring the food. LOL I thought that you had already eaten your dinner before you tossed it was a given. I never thought you were dumb.

RN, I'm jumping on the bandwagon of tossing dishes at work. Since I work later than some others here, I wait until everybody is gone and then toss it. The cleaning crew throws the trash out before the next morning and all I have to do is act innocent..."what? your dish is gone? Imagine that!"

RN LOL Metoo. When they say something about their dish being gone do you ever say "Gee. I don't know. Do you know where you left it?"

RN, Chiliwilli, if your sons have to get to Alaska to eat dinner, maybe that's why they're late. Then again, maybe not. Never mind.

RN Sponges! Don't even get me started on sponges. The lady who used to clean our fridge brought in sponges and insisted on everyone using the damn things.

RN Oh, Hukd you are way too funny. LOL Nope that's not it. Only one lives in Montana but the other 3 adult ones live within 10 miles of me. When I asked one of them about why he was 4 HOURS late for Father's Day dinner, he told me he had a life and he would get here when he could. This dinner had been planned way in advance, by the way, not last minute. That was my last planned dinner. I figured I shouldn't interfere with his life.

RN, I pick them up with the salad thingies (tongs?) and throw them in the trash...then I bury them under coffee grounds so the sponge lovers don't see them.

RN, they don't even have an inkling that it is me doing the tossing. I'm that good at being innocent. I can't figure out why would anybody want to keep an opened can of coke for two or three days?

RN Eeeeeeew! Me either, Metoo. RN I am not ~ no absolutely NOT ~ reading or posting anything else until I get back from the store. Of course, if I don't get out of here I will not get back.

RN, I used sponges until I quit smoking and got back my sense of smell. RN, we have refrigerators on each of our 7 floors. Housekeeping cleans them out every Friday afternoon and nothing is sacred unless it has your name on it.

RN i agree that sponges are GROSS. and, i never use anything in the kitchens (yes, we have 3 in our department) unless i bring it from home. heck, someone even drops food all over the floor and doesn't bother to clean it up. they are so nasty. RN <waves to Metoo>
