A Reddit user's office experiences highlight the chaos caused by a co-worker's unconventional cooking methods in a communal microwave. The antics began with strange items like explosive boiled eggs and sardines but escalated when the co-worker, Greg, attempted to microwave a raw steak directly on the glass surface. After a thermos of soup led to a mini-explosion and an office evacuation, management intervened, resulting in Greg's ban from the microwave. This situation sparked debate over shared kitchen etiquette and accusations of 'snitching' for reporting dangers.
It started small - he'd microwave weird things like boiled eggs (which exploded) or sardines (which smelled like the apocalypse), but then it escalated.
Greg brought in a thermos full of homemade soup, but instead of pouring it into a bowl, he microwaved the entire metal thermos, resulting in a mini-explosion.
Management got involved, and now Greg is officially banned from [using] the microwave, which has now permanently smelled like burned meat and despair.
Some of my co-workers believe I should have just let it go, but I feel like I had to explain why there was a charred thermos carcass inside.
