Meanwhile, back in 1951…
This person is not particularly liked around the place. This

So whoever left the mess, get your act together and clean up after yourself. If the box of tissues is empty, as it was when I used the instrument, go and get another box – like I had to.
None of this is all that difficult.

At least you know who’s complaining. We always got our complaints anonymously through various lab managers. At every lab meeting the LM would get some time to tell us what people (in our lab or others) had been complaining about. Lights on, lights off, missing equipment, empty bottles of reagent, missed cleaning duties, radio on too loud, missing glass cuvette, etc. Very passive aggressive. I usually just did my own complaining in his complain-section of the lab meeting (It was meant for everyone, but it was usually just him and me and one other person venting our frustrations)
