I was once sedated for a procedure, and heard the Doctor ask for a certain type of needle. The Nurse replied that they were out; she had just thrown them all away since they were expired. The Dr asked "how expired", and she said "2 weeks". He replied that that was fine, he wanted them anyway. And then I heard the lid on the trash can opening... I found it quite humorous; I couldn't care less that their supplies were a bit 'expired,' nor that the sealed packages had sat in the trash can for a bit!
