Oh the Passive Aggressive Office Notes

My favorite part of the note is the closing sentence, which is positively the most passive aggressive line in the flyer. "You might try covering your food when heating it."

I'm also fond of the poster's choice to write the threat in all caps. Are they yelling? Or are they simply trying to draw the most attention possible?

Just a sidenote, that I've never actually covered my food while heating, although it never occurred to me that the "splatterings" were anything other than another challenge for housekeeping to take care of. Similar to when I dropped the water cooler refill and left a huge water stain on the floor. Woopsie...
