It's that time of year again... when people bring in snacks and treats galore - either leftovers from Holiday Parties, sharing the contents of gift baskets or just bringing in stuff because they are nice.

Here's my pet peeve with this... it's the people that always cut something in half - like a cookie or a piece of cake/pie, and leave their half behind. It just bugs me... why leave the half? Maybe someone else doesn't want your half, maybe they want a whole... and now there is this stray half-piece... This is happening everyday in my office and it's driving me crazy.

So what's proper sharing ettiquette for office snacks? Anyone have any interesting tales relating to this subject?
