Dirty Dishes

I think I made one of my co-workers angry not too long ago. My office has a tiny little kitchen that everyone shares. I came into the office and found the following note taped to the kitchen cabinet above the sink:


I walked out to the secretary and said, "Hey, have you seen the new sign someone put up in the kitchen?"

"Yes," she said, with her jaw set firmly. "I put it there. I thought people needed to read it!"

"That's all fine," I said to her, "but I'm confused."

"About what?" she said as she crossed her arms.

"Well," I told her, "where am I supposed to put my dirty dishes now?"

She didn't speak to me for the rest of the day.
