Corn Puffs box misinformation

I loaned my lovely external Eliant 8mm tape drive to a cow-orker a couple of months ago, and when I got it back, weeks late, I couldn't get a tape to load at all. Evidently she had carried it around in the back seat with her ankle-biters, because when I took it apart, I found 4 corn puffs, nestled neatly at the 4 corners of the loading tracks. The drive is fine now, and the cow, um, -orker, is still pissed because I turned in a time ticket for the repair [0], and it came out of her check. Doc [0] Strictly for meanness and a wake-up call. The woman makes double what I do, can't be bothered to buy her own equipment, thinks mine is there for her personal enjoyment, and takes abysmal care of it, not to mention whining when she's expected to bring it back to me. If I want my stuff back, I can drive 90 miles to get it, right?
