Impossible to say without more information/context.

BookMeOnTheSudExpress · 06/03/2020 18:29

Dirty tissue?
Used condom?
Full ashtray?

We need more info.

TheJoxter · 06/03/2020 18:29

Depends what it is

Important paperwork - YANBU
Food wrapper that has been sat there for three days - YABU

WorraLiberty · 06/03/2020 18:30

What are you talking about then?

UnravellingThreads · 06/03/2020 18:30

I guess it really depends. Probably, if we're talking a possession of yours or some work etc.

However, if it was your collection of dead flies etc. then I'd think they had a point...

TheMemoryLingers · 06/03/2020 18:30

Was it something confidential that shouldn't have been left out, and they put it in confidential waste? If so, YABU. If something else we need to know what in order to give an opinion.

Marnie76 · 06/03/2020 18:31

Well what are you talking about then? 🧐

NoveltyFunsy · 06/03/2020 18:32

Cacaca · 06/03/2020 18:32

KarmaStar · 06/03/2020 18:32

Must be a school desk and colleague is actually a fellow 12 year old student...

FortunatelyDark · 06/03/2020 18:33

I had every right and you know it

SnowyPetals · 06/03/2020 18:34

Well if it was your computer or phone then obviously not 😂

Bluntness100 · 06/03/2020 18:35

Is it a state secret or something?

GiveHerHellFromUs · 06/03/2020 18:35

Depends if it's rubbish or not, surely?

Redcrayons · 06/03/2020 18:35

Depends what it is.

Photos of your DCs - no
Crisp packets - yes

thedevilinablackdress · 06/03/2020 18:36

WHAT WAS IT?

MRex · 06/03/2020 18:36

Have you considered keeping your desk clean and tidy in future?

vodkaredbullgirl · 06/03/2020 18:37

coconuttelegraph · 06/03/2020 18:37

Look, it was my fucking stapler first and you could even tell because I tippexed my initials on it. So quit with the passagg threads or I'll bin your bloody work slippers as well.

TheMustressMhor · 06/03/2020 18:42

pmk so that I can find out what it was

Likethebattle · 06/03/2020 18:42

You need to elaborate.

HeddaGarbled · 06/03/2020 18:42

If it was offensive, I’d support them for it e.g if it was racist or misogynistic.

HappyHammy · 06/03/2020 18:43

Come on OP tell us what is was.
