I was off work ill for 2 days and a deputy (not mine)stood in for me.
When I went back to work this morning I found that she had tidied up my filing and sorted out a few things I had left since I wasnt expecting to be ill. I was a bit anyway but decided to be charitable and think the best of her. I do like her to speak to .
Then I found that my little desk top bin was gone. I was puzzled as I couldnt see where it could be. I asked her and she said
" Oh it looked just like rubbish so I threw it away"
I really felt like crying. Not over the bin-just the disrespectfulness of it really.
It is was just an old pot noodle pot made into a labelled bin-all jazzed up with my name on it. I did it a couple of years ago when they took away our under desk bins and Ive had it all that time.It was just for those annoying bits of paper and sweetiewrappers important memos that I would otherwise have to stack up until I could make a trip to the big bin.
Anyway -it was mine and she threw it away.
She was appalled that I was obviously annoyed(I couldnt hide it) and offered to bring me another one. But that isnt the point.
so AIBU?
