Reclessness
It might be obvious that the situation here was surrounding this beautiful cake and that it isn’t a free-for-all. There was most likely a note left asking people to leave it be and maybe it was someone’s kid’s cake for their birthday, and they had to leave it at work, or maybe someone planned to bring it to their mom after their shift?
It seems like someone got the message loud and clear, but they just didn’t seem to care. A big old chunk was taken right out of it and not only was a piece taken, they left a note that they were very much aware of the original message but decided they wanted to leave their own. You really hope they don’t have any office drama.
