Since she wasn’t at work today, I had to check all of my co-worker’s mouse traps. I couldn’t help but laugh when I realized that all of the traps were empty… not just of mouse, but also of oatmeal cream pie.
I couldn’t figure out how the mouse had robbed each trap of it’s bait without getting snapped. But after a quick inspection, I realized she had been setting the traps wrong. I was able to sling one around the breakroom floor with a broom for several seconds before it ever went off.
Instead of catching the mouse, my co-worker has been feeding him. No wonder he’s sticking around. So before I left today, I dug into the oatmeal cream pie stash, refilled each trap, and reset them correctly. Tomorrow we shall see if the little shit will continue to be so lucky.
