When should you say something, and when should you remain quiet?

Bastard_cat [Edit] [Delete] 12:29, 9 May '07

Every day, the bloke with the trolley comes round and I buy two newspapers for my mate and I to read at lunchtime. I give hime the money, he puts the papers down, the transaction is complete.

He puts them atop a short, fat filing cabinet which is next to my desk, and is at about desk height. Once he has put them down, I leave them there and don't think about them until my lunch hour has arrived.

Ignorant woman from across the way, she that never says thank you should you hold a door open or anything, has taken to coming over to where the (my!) newspapers lay during the morning and reading them, right next to my desk. Takes her about 10 minutes in all, I guess she is just skim reading. Anyway, should one ask her just what the fucking fuck she thinks she is doing, or should one just let is go as it is just a 30p newspaper? I know I could move them, but then it is like she has managed to get to me.

Which she has.

So, what to do?
