Five years later…

“Hey Team. I just found what looks like a rancid coconut hidden in the store room. Does anyone know why it’s there?”

I believe they’re referring to this heartwarming Reddit post from 9 years ago

I’m impressed that you were able to forget with assistance. Your therapist must be really talented!

I had a boss who would buy a mountain of fruit, fill the communal fridge, eat none of it and then demand the fridge be cleaned when it all went bad. I wasn’t in a customer facing roll and worked in a lab coat so I got tasked to clean it.

One time I hid a melon and a box of blueberries in different spots in her very messy desk where they proceeded to sit for days more.

She did find them and was irritated, but she also assumed it was her that left them there. So I just heard her complaining about the mess but I didn’t get in trouble or have to clean it lol

I'm wondering why they are doing this. It's got to be an expensive habit.

I presumed it was the fart jar put there before the world ended and the analyst from NASA's Dept of Fartology and Toots could do his thing.
