To my co-workers: WTF?

Today, I couldn't help but pause in shock at what I saw what was on our lunchroom counter.


Really, co-workers...really?
You can't open the sugar canister like the one on the left?
You have to either rip off the plastic top (like the center picture) or just rip into it like a sugar monster you must be (as on the right)?
Really? You need sugar THAT BADLY that you have to pry open the BOTTOM of the friggin' sugar container? Even when one container is already open?
REALLY?
I mean, it's not like we work in an emergency room...or something else that might justify the three second savings of having a faster pour of sugar. Because unless I'm mistaken, all we do is sell VALVES. Valves that our customers are waiting over a year to get. We can afford to take our time with the sugar AND the creamer.

For an outfit that sells valves, I would have thought you would have had valves on *everything*. Maybe a butterfly valve on the sink faucet, a plug valve on the coffee, and a ball valve on the sugar dispenser! Where is your company pride?!?!
