I love working with sensitive people!
Message on my work voice mail (from my supervisor):
"Hey Tony,
As I was leaving rehearsal last night I saw a piece of plywood that was inadvertently thrown away. I lugged it over to your door. I couldn't get it in because I didn't have the shop keys blah blah blah..."
Now let me give you some info here. First of all, This piece of plywood was damn near a full sheet--had just a two by two or so square cut out of it. YOU DON'T INADVERTENTLY THROW A 4X8 SHEET OF PLYWOOD IN THE TRASH!!!!
Second, "inadvertently thrown away" = "I think that you aren't bright enough to realize that you could have re-used that piece of plywood and I'm going to step in on this one"
Finally (and this is my favorite part) IT WASN'T MINE!!!! There is a construction company working on a building next to the scene shop and they left it out overnight. It gave me no small amount of glee to imagine her huffing that heavy piece of wood with a look of righteous indignation on her face.
And all the time she was actually stealing from a construction site.
