Soil on My Desk?

There was something really funny this morning.

A new-comer of my research team whose seat is behind me, pointed the glass jar on my desk and asked me that what pet do I keep on my desk. I was really confused.

Pet? Furry-Monster(the cat) is in my home, I thought, and did not know what to reply. “Isn’t that soil?” The new-comer added.

I laughed and laughed, almost falling down to the floor. Oh, It is my coffee bean powder, not soil. And I am not interested in keeping something as my pet like ants, bugs, or even snakes.
