The last doughnut phobia? is there such a thing?
In a office of 20 people, we buy 1 dozen (12) doughnuts every friday.
But yet ALWAYS 1 is left behind, we believe that there is a fear of the last doughnut, either being polite and not wanting to take it from some one who needs it, or that because it was the last one in the box, it must have some defect or be subpar from the rest that were choosen.
Does anyone have a name for this?

In police departments there is often a gun fight over the last donut.
