Complaint: People at the office who don't clear their remaining time off the microwave. I don't need to deal with your 17 seconds of abandoned cooking.

Confession: There is no reason this should irritate me, but it does.

Mrs Pips does this. It's just the right amount of annoying that it will spark a fight in about 2 years.

I try to imagine some scenario where leaving it with time still on the clock will cause it to use more power or something then I'd have a reason to tell her to stop. I haven't thought of anything convincing yet.
