1) The person who uses the microwave for either a) the most delicious-smelling and therefore distracting food or b) the most horrific-smelling, and therefore distracting food (and never cleans it).
2) The small office that buys the best, most expensive server rack, then puts it in the kitchen, plugged into the same outlet as the fridge.
3) The tech support rep who puts the customer on hold, mutters a mantra of foul curses to himself, then comes back again with a perfect phone manner.
4) The Tragedy of the Commons that is the company fridge. No one cleans it, though there are frequent email on when everything is getting thrown out.
(This begs for a running gag - everyone in the game has a real-life cell phone. The GMs can mass-text everyone with "company emails" > Fred from accounting's daughter is selling girl scout cookies > Time to clean out the fridge > Sign up for the softball team > Fred from accounting is running in the 10k Cause of the Week marathon > Ethel is leaving, keep it quiet, we're giving her the same cake we do for everyone else who leaves, and everyone pretends its a surprise. > Fred from accounting has heard about a brand new virus, and wanted to warn everyone
