A Funny Joke Or Horrible Mistake

In the mornings when I get to work, I go to the break room to put my lunch in the fridge. This morning I went there and right when I opened the door to the break room I got punched in the face. Not literally. Figuratively. The smell was so bad in there. I saw 3 dudes in there and I looked at them with this disgusted face. I saw one washing dishes in the sink, one was by the microwave, and the other was by the fridge putting his lunch in there too.

From the immediate looks of things, I had assumed the guy putting his lunch away accidently dropped it and it spilled all over the fridge. And that’s where this smell was coming from. But he had an innocent look to his face. So I don’t think he could be the culprit.

The dude washing his dishes at the sink was only washing a cup so he couldn’t have something that smelled that bad. And the other dude at the microwave notices me scanning around trying to find the smell and says “It’s milk. Apparently someone left it in the cabinet.”

WTF? Who leaves milk in the cabinet?

And then the janitor walks in with some cleaning products. He sees the disgusted look on my face. I guess the other 3 guys have been in there so long that don’t even notice the smell anymore. I, on the otherhand, am ready to puke my brains out. The janitor, “Migo”, then explains to me that when he was cleaning the break room this morning that it smelled even worse. He was looking in the fridge trying to find the smell but everything smelled ok in there. He then checked the trash cans but no dice. Then he started looking in the microwaves and still no dice. The sink. Nope. And finally he started checking the cabinets and BINGO!!!! He found a gallon of milk that was ready to explode. He said the container had expanded and was ready to blow up.

I asked “Why would there be milk in the cabinet?”

And Migo said “They clean the fridge every Friday night. Maybe the cleaning ladies were emptying the fridge and someone left milk and the cleaning ladies decided they were gonna take it home so they put it in the cabinet to get it later. And then they forgot?”

That makes sense.

If I was a cleaning lady, I’d take home whatever people leave in the fridge. That’s free food right there.
