A coworker set the break room on fire by microwaving her lunch for 30 minutes instead of three. No idea how you forget your lunch is in the microwave, let alone for half an hour, but hey I got to go home early.
The microwaves we have at work are big commercial ones with just a single nob, they only go up to 6 minutes, probably for this exact reason.
30 minutes? Those are rookie numbers. You want a shorter time? Go for something truly vintage. I have a 1977 Amana Radarange that can achieve the same in 5-8 minutes. Those fuckers are powerful.
I once microwaved a bowl of cereal by mistake instead of a bowl of stew.
Cereal goes on fire and smells like burning horse hair when microwaved
ADHD, that's why I'd forget...lol
Ryan?
Fire guy!
Nope sorry, haha!
I did 30 instead of 3 and forgot about it once. Granted, I was about eight or nine at the time...
