Then he would either put the tin in his office wastebasket so I could smell it all day or the lunch room trash can so everyone's lunch was ruined by smelling his sardine snacks. Like your seatmate, that was only one of the many things I hated about him.
We'll often pop open a tin for a pre-dinner snack, but sardines only smell good if you're the one eating them!
