Why????

As previously mentioned the people i work for rent office space in a large building occupied by various other companies. The people that "own" the building are in my opinion a bit anal.

Outside the back door there is an "ashtray" it is metal, stands about half a metre tall and has a lock on it which they ACTUALLY KEEP LOCKED - why do you need to lock an ashtray? Who in their right mind would steal fag butts????
