Workplace Fridge CZAR Throws Away Your Container

From FUTURE SHOW ON AIR JUDGE WYLD SHOW - Radio Talk
Excerpt from show prep notes. On air content may have been more or less. Not journalistic or debate notes.

Office Refrigerator

Have to share a workplace refrigerator with others? Do you trust it? Your home refrigerator might be worse..but it’s yours. At work there is a woman or a man who sounds the alarm and takes action when the fridge gets too stinky. Or too full. Old forgotten food….

Btw…. Refridgerator with a D? or Refrigerator? Short? Frige? Or FRIDGE?

What rules do you have at your workplace for the use of the fridge?

All items must be marked with your name and date.

All items must be sealed in a container or ziplock plastic bag.

All lunch bags must be removed by the end of the day.

If you spill, you clean it up.

No large boxes of donuts or other bulk items like large jars of pickles.

No onions.

So the fridge gets too full…and the good person sends out an email…maybe a note on the fridge…

“NEXT WEEK THE BIG FRIDGE IN THE KITCHEN BY THE DOOR WILL BE CLEANED OUT. PLEASE REMOVE ALL OF YOUR ITEMS FROM THE FRIDGE BY FRIDAY NIGHT. THANK YOU.”

And so ok… and you plan ahead and hope you remember and hope everyone else remembers and you look throughout the week and notice that some items are gone but most are still in there…

So the good person sends out an email or replaces the sign…

“REMINDER. TOMORROW the FRIDGE WILL BE CLEANED. PLEASE REMOVE YOUR ITEMS FROM THE FRIDGE. THANKS.”

You think, ok… I’m sure they are serious about this. I had forgotten about it… I better remember to remove my plastic container of leftover greenbeans and that cardboard Chinese rice holder from the fridge tomorrow. But LOOK AT ALL of those OTHER PEOPLES expensive containers still in there!!!! Oh my!!!

So the next morning… Friday morning. There is another email or the sign is replaced.

“THIS FRIDGE WILL BE CLEANED TONIGHT. ALL ITEMS LEFT, WILL BE THROWN IN THE TRASH.”

So at lunchtime you get a call from a friend and she says…meet me at Bob’s BBQ for lunch. So you go to lunch.

At 3pm that afternoon and email comes out….

“I’M ON MY WAY TO THE FRIDGE RIGHT NOW.”

Heheheheheheohohohohohohohohooo… you were in a meeting. You were busy. You didn’t see the email…. Your greenbeans and the container and the cardboard rice have been thrown away by 3:15pm……

The angel who warned everyone has done their duty… Your rice is gone, your greenbeans are gone and your plastic container is gone.


Sincerely, JUDGE WYLD
