How odd (Work Weirdness)

Once upon a time, I wrote a post about my trusting one of my colleague to do the right thing with my classroom key.

Basically, I use my badge to get my key, and I use it again to prove that I didn't go home with the key.

Since the semester started, the man I trusted last year and two of his colleagues have decided to not take the two steps to the locker where the keys are kept (incidentally, one of them momentarily misplaced the key, and the teacher who needed the room after me had to trek to the administration to get a spare key), and every other time, they take the key, but tell me to not use my badge (if I use it, it opens the locker, and they have to do something or the thing keeps beeping).

Tonight... same thing. They took the key, but they didn't want to get up, and I must say that I find that really weird.

Perhaps they're mutating into squirrels with an addiction to keys, and they put them all back in the locker when they've gathered a certain number of keys.

Whatever the reason... That's really odd... and if there's another problem with my key in the future. Trust or no trust... I'll use my badge and they'll have to get up.
