And I'm sure there are plenty of passive-aggressive old folks living in your building. God forbid you brushed up against the thermostat and raised it accidentally a 1/4 of a degree. They'd all storm out into the hallway at once asking for your head on a pike! Old folks seem to thrive on nitpicking about things like that.

I think it would annoy me more to find a chicken bone - obvious refuse - in the hallway after having an inadequately folded box returned to me. Is there no rule about leaving chicken remains strewn about? Maybe this is some kind of loophole! Beware strange old ladies with ESP!
