Microwaved fish in the shared office kitchen
On Tuesday at 1:15pm, Dave reheated tilapia for four full minutes in the shared microwave, with the door of the break room propped open the entire time. The smell lingered through two subsequent meetings. This is not the first offense.
The tribunal finds that reheating aquatic biomass for two hundred and forty contiguous seconds constitutes an act of olfactory aggression of the highest order. Under the precedent established in Henderson v. The Scented Breakroom (1998), the propping open of an egress door during seafood thermalization removes any defense of accidental dispersal and demonstrates reckless atmospheric negligence. Dave's actions directly compromised the breathable airspace of adjacent conference facilities, rendering his conduct utterly indefensible.
Penalty: Dave is hereby banished from all motorized heating appliances for thirty business days and must consume exclusively chilled sandwiches, under the personal supervision of Kudzai, while wearing a laminated lanyard that reads 'I Have Betrayed the Ambient Air.'
