A Simple Request
FOUND by Michael Shiflet
Found in the cafeteria at work alongside said "purse" on top of freezer. The purse turned out to be a nice sack with someone's microwave dinners in it. Even knowing that, many questions remain, mostly dealing with the author's sanity.

That's because it's "Sanese" Services, not "Sanity" Services.

Why were you going through said "purse" and did it wind up in the freezer since you swiped their note?

Why didn't the author write this note on the (presumably unprinted) *back* of the Sanese slip? ADD?

I'm going to guess the OWNER put the bag in the freezer and someone who works there took the whole thing out and left the note. And the owner was probably pretty ticked off to have melted dinners!

i work in a restaurant people play pranks and such on each other when bored maybe this ladies purse had found its way into the freezer before and was making sure it wouldn't happen again.

At least they were polite about it.
They said "please".

I agree with Heather.

ummm, I don't see the word "please" anywhere on that note...

I agree with Heather - somebody using the cafeteria's freezer for their private stock...

I'm from Canton too and I've never even heard of Sanese Services. But it doesn't suprise me that something like this would come from Canton - we've got some rather strange people around here!

Hehe...for some reason, I really like this find!

How does the dog in the purse make any sense?

And come on now, people. You can't tell me you've never gone to get something to drink and accidentally left the TV remote in the fridge. Hell, I've left the remote, packs of cigarettes, my car keys...though still not my whole purse.

Sara, I don't understand a word you just said.

I love the find though!

'purse' is short for personal. someone was using the freezer for their personal stuff

Tess, umm...no. "Purse" actually means "purse."

It was probably written by one of those senior employees who think they know everything and don't do much of anything all day(we all know one of them). She probably couldnt fit 'her' purse in 'her' part of the freezer.

Well Michael, I can understand you swiping the note from beside the purse, but why did you feel compelled to go through the purse pilfering through it's contents.

I agree with barb in detroit, most likely it's a manager who's thinking they know it all...
but funny it's not a purse it's just dinner

Your all WRONG. The finder says that the 'purse' was actually a fancy paper sack. I am assuming similar to one with handles and a printed logo on the side (i.e. Starbucks). The person who wrote this note thought the paper sack was a purse, destroying the lunch contents.
Many places of work, have employee refridgerators for lunch storage. Now, whoever thought a paper sack was a purse is a total moron.

I think it was someone visiting from New Zealand and didn't want their "Personal Stuff" in the freezer. Come on you folks are terrible at figuring these things out.

This find reminds me of my grandma singing about purses in refrigerators

If said purse was really a lunch bag, does it mean that because this was written on 'Refund Record' will the owner get a refund?

"And come on now, people. You can't tell me you've never gone to get something to drink and accidentally left the TV remote in the fridge. Hell, I've left the remote, packs of cigarettes, my car keys...though still not my whole purse. "

It's good to know other people do that too. Lost my glasses for three days once, found them in the ice dispenser.

Since the number is clearly legible I called Sanese Services. They are a vending service.

Purses should not be frozen. They taste better when they are fresh.

Lean Cuisine actually made these cute little lunch bags to carry you're frozen dinners in. I wanted one AS A PURSE because they were so cute. I'm betting it was something like that.

Whats in a name?
The funny thing about that, is I have found my own purse in a refrigerator before...

This reminds me of middle-school slumber parties, where the innocent victim who fell asleep first would awake to find dirty words Sharpied on her forehead and her bra, or other purse-onal items, in the freezer.

Seriously, lossing something in the freezer is a real fear of mine... this is not unfounded either. Once my family was visiting an uncle and we couldn't find our car keys. The car was locked too. We search for 2 hours and found nothing. We called some lock person or something to try and help us. Then, one of my cousins went into the freezer for a popsicle and found the keys.
