    The best thing is to recycle, or to get some sulfur powder to react mercury to produce a very stable HgS.

    Throw it in the corridor and harm your whole building.

    Mercury vapor is highly toxic, and it can't be relied on after inhaling into the body (half-life of 40 years), which is equivalent to accompanying you for a lifetime when you go in, and of course you can take detoxification measures to remove part of it.
