Talk about annoying - but funny at the same time *NBR*

I work in an office and it has this little 'kitchenette' with supplies for making breakfast/lunch, etc. So there's this little dry-erase board on the fridge and we're supposed to write on there when supplies need to be refilled (ie. plastic forks, paper plates, plastic cups...) and the receptionist is responsible for 'filling' the supplies and then erasing the board.. Ok, so about 3 months ago I wrote "plastic forks/knives/spoons" on the board. They have been refilled... then not too long ago someone wrote "Plastic cups"...which have also been filled. So today I'm over there and all of our 'requests for supplies' are still written on the board and the receptionist has also written on the board, "These have all been refilled - check the cupboards!!" Haha...so I grab the marker and write "Then ERASE the board?!" I mean, come on... did we forget how this system works?

End rant.

ha!  that's pretty funny.  i work at a really small office and we just moved so i put our 2 month wipe off calendar up on the wall in the kitchen (which only has a water cooler, a fridge, and a table...btw).  i have the next two months labeled and dated and a couple of my days off written up there...and the cleaning lady keeps cleaning the board off!!!  stop it!!!  just cause it's a wipe off board doesn't mean you're supposed to wipe it off every week!!!  argh!
