What do these three things have in common? If you thought breakfast, you're close. But oddly enough, these are the three objects I found in the fume hood when I arrived at work one day. Now, the fume hood functions in a similar manner to your oven fan. The idea is to take up all the nasty, and perhaps toxic (if you're that kind of cook), gases so you don't have to breath them. At work, these hoods also serve as work space. Now, what do these objects have to do with work? Well, the only thing I can figure out is that someone is partying after hours. I think I know who it is, and I'm still waiting for an invite. I'm told they actually serve a purpose in day-to-day work. Odd. . .
Bunsen burners are pretty neat. We had lots of fun with them in high school. Robert Wilhelm Bunsen was a German chemist who lived from 1811-1899. Once thought to be relics of the past, I have found that the Bunsen burner is useful for cleaning metal objects with its intense heat.

Nobody throws a party like a chemical engineer!
Yes, life as a engineer does have a few perks, especially for pyromaniacs.
Wow. Now this is all a bit odd. But count me in if it ever comes to that! :)
Maybe you have illegal imigrant workers living in your building. They might come from mexico.
They live in the abandoned cubicals. I think some of them work as greeters at Wal-Mart.
