used coffee spoon (tm)

Back then, when I was an avid coffee drinker, I never quite understood the thinking logic of guys, leaving their used coffee spoon(s) next to the kitchen sink at work. It is usually done so, with at least half of the spoon still with coffee, partially on the sink, making a unification of spoon and sink surface in a yummy tempting crust over the course of the day, at times with up to 3-4(!) exhibitions of those.

I once was seriously given an explanation of "to use again later...". Well, I hardly doubt, that:
- they themselves use it again (I vividly remember the never changing coffee patterns depicted on the sink, spoons included)
- any other person is tempted to use it
- there is a slight possibility of re-usage even after minimum rinsing under hot water and then leaving next to the sink (never happens)

Furthermore:
- Why are there more than one of those exhibited, with the 're-usage policy' being formulated?
- Why doesn't in fact one take the spoon along with him in the cup for (personal) re-usage later?


Our pissed off receptionist (also responsible for the kitchen) loved when I came up with the following flyers hanging in the kitchen and she even requested the electronic form to forward them to her equally pissed off colleagues she knows at other working places and for future usage elsewhere.

Feel free to pass these along if you know somebody in an equal position as our receptionist. :)
