We had many redundancies years ago with very little notice given. There was a lot of stuff left behind in the kitchen. I believe the large volume of abandoned cereal was a major contributor to the serious pantry moth infestation we had a bit later.

A woman at work resigned in such a hurry she left her umbrella here. I wonder what’s going to happen to it

You have to take those small revenges where you can. Maybe I should have some backup food somewhere if anything happens

Crushed peanuts. Pantry moths love them. Runner up would be a muesli mix (especially if it contains nuts). If you can hide it down the back of the cupboard a moth infestation can develop quietly, unnoticed until the larvae head out to find new food sources and you you get traumatised staff horrified by the “maggots” crawling through all the food.

I’ll have a packet of peanuts ready to turn into a moth bomb if I ever think the day is coming. Thank you

Aged 11 I left an open bottle of school milk on top of the gas water heater in the kitchen just opposite the head masters office. Stank quite well. I’m not sure if they ever found the bottle because I was expelled for other reasons.

It needs a new home. You know what to do.

If it doesn’t get touched for the next couple of days then I know where to turn if I get caught in the rain

This happened at a previous workplace, and ended up really complicated to be honest. I’d tell you, but it might go over your head.

Sounds like one case where it’s better to be clear of the downpour and left high and dry
