Lunchbox love

With rare exception, I bring my lunch to work every day.  Each floor of our office building has a community refrigerator, so when I get to the office I just put my meal in the fridge, then head to my desk to start my day.  Easy.

However.  This morning when I opened the refrigerator door, I saw something that caused me to pause, smile, and almost laugh out loud.  Behold:

(Look on the middle shelf, right side. Click on the picture to make it larger if you'd like.)

This is an old-school, all-metal, superhero lunch box.  In a large, high-powered, presumably “serious” corporate office setting.

Oh. My. Gosh.  Hilarious.  Awesome.  Fan-tastic.

P.S. Extra credit if you can guess which lunch is mine…

    Only guessing, mind you —
    But the plastic box above Superman — it looks like there’s fresh healthy stuff in it.
    Otherwise I choose the stylish dots next to Supie, I like to think of you as offhand stylish!

      There is one red one in the bunch (bottom left); but if they were ALL red, that would be boring. (And potentially confusing.) We get enough red at work; we don’t need to add more to it… 😉

    Hmm – don’t know. 1. The red one? 2. The Tupperware on top?

  5. I remember reading that you are quite parshal to a plastic container. Could that be yours in the top right hand corner with the blue lid?

      I keep my individual meal components in plastic containers much like that one; but then I put all of the containers into a bag. Want to try again? (Assuming you don’t already know the answer…) 🙂

    I’m guessing the polka dotted lunch bag next to Superman is yours. 🙂

  7. I guessed the polka dots one and then read the other comments and saw I was right. 🙂 It’s very colorful, I love it!

    Please tell me a tall distinguished gent in a pin-stripe suit walks to work each morning carrying his superman lunch box … that would make my day 😀

      I don’t know who the rightful owner of the box is – but odds are good that it’s a man who wears at least a tie, if not a full-on suit… 😉
