A follow-up to the microwave post.

I didn't mention it after posting the story about Sandals pre-heating the microwave, but the following Monday, a different lady came up to me and recounted the exact same story.

It was evident at that point that Something had to be done by Someone, and I guess that Someone had to be me, but what would the Something be? A harshly worded anonymous memo? Gently taking him by the hand and slamming it in the microwave door?

Of course not.

Someone, and I'm not saying who to protect my innocence, put a sign on the microwave that stated, quite succinctly:

Microwave is already pre-heated.

Turning microwave on with nothing in it can damage the heating element.

I have heard of no further incidents with the microwave.

If anyone from my employer is reading this, you can go ahead and put this in my file under "Kudos."
