:-)

We have potlucks monthly at work.
It's not unusual for stuff to be brought in in the morning and
immediately refrigerated, and taken out around noon for day shift to
lunch on.

Then it's still out on the tables when I come in at 10 pm at night. <g>

I don't worry about preserved or well cooked food. It keeps, especially
if salted or smoked.

I'm just selective...

I generally clean up the break room. I'll re-cover some stuff and stick
it back in the 'frige and let the "donors" worry about whether or not
they want to take their leftovers home...
