to write fuck off on my lunch?

[FreakinScaryCaaw]

Long story short we have a thief at work. No CCTV so we can't pinpoint who it is? Could be more than one as it's a big place?

Anyway we have to bring our own lunch and I usually bring something to pop in the locker or go and get something. But yesterday I brought in something that needed to go in the fridge. A convenience Thai meal that needed microwaving.

Anyway went to get it at lunchtime and someone had slipped off the cardboard sleeve and opened it!! Probably to smell it or taste it see if they fancied it? I was livid. Still ate it though as had nothing else.

So today I took another one, similar thing. But this time I put a little note on saying fuck off and then sellotape and put sleeve back on so they'd have to remove that to see note . Plus tied it up in a carrier bag. Extreme much? It didn't look as if it had been meddled with this time? The carrier bag was tied the same.

Some people at work don't think it's a big deal but I was furious. Some borked and said they wouldn't have eaten it. I'd never dream of doing this or taking others food. Drinks go missing too. Gits.

Not as bad as your situation but we have a nosy bitch at work who goes through people's desks when they are not there. So I put a note in each of my drawers saying 'Fuck off name - she has obviously seen them as she gives me funny looks.

just peel a corner back and stick a post it nor "I have spit in this"

should that be spat? spitted doesn't look right - someone from pedant's corner help>

pigletjohn that's classic!!!

I worked as a cleaner in a office area and had money stolen from my locker. . what made me most mad was that these people earned nearly 4 times (management probably 7) what I did. I complained to my supervisor who held the spare keys for lockers but she said 'oh isn't that awful'

Eeee the cheek of them all. Can't get over the one pinching a plate of food and brazenly eating it!

I had a bit of money pinched from my wages years and years ago. Myself and another girl. The bosses wanted to call the police. The other girl felt there was no point. Looking back now, I realise the bosses were subtly trying to encourage me to agree to calling the police. Looking back years later, it dawned on me that the other girl took some of my wages and probably pretended that she had too to avoid suspicion.

I heard a story where someone was helping themselves to someone's lunch while they were distracted. Cheese sandwiches to be exact. Revenge came in the form of putting slices of soap in the sandwiches for the thief to enjoy !

In an office block I once worked in, there was a building-wide e-mail asking who ever it was that was helping themselves to food from the canteen after hours to stop. I thought this was odd as the building has security overnight. Um, was it the security guard possibly ?

Yes I thought that about the other girl straight away Ghetto, would make sense.

I've decided I'm going to treat the thieves to sandwiches laced with naga chilli paste. I'll soon know who's done it then when they have a bright red face

theft is theft. Someone has organised and bought their lunch, you don't just take it because you are an entitled crook.

food needs to be labelled because the other side of this is that people don't chuck out old food, so sooner or later the fridge is full of slime.

ps the correct form is 'I have spat in this', past tense.

Freakin - I would grind up a shit load of dried ghost or birdseye chillis and smother the filling of a sandwich with it. Whoever vomits/goes red in the face/sweats/cries or is seen drinking gallons and gallons of milk or water - then you have your thief.

People did this a lot when I worked on the wards :S The thing is sometimes it would be peoples ready meals, so how on earth they had the front to stick it in the microwave and sit chomping away knowing it wasn't theres baffles me :S

farrow I don't have those but do have naga and it's mega hot.

This happened at DH's last workplace. Lots of working to project deadliens meant people were there until late hours and couldn't just nip out so there were a lot of meals in the canteen fridge.

Management took it seriously, moved security cameras and found the culprit. He was sacked immediately, which surprised DH. The boss told DH it was partly because of the bad effect on morale, partly because frankly if you will continually steal other people's food rather than simply buy your own, you are a low-down bastard who will do lots of other dishonest things. I agree with that.

Great boss ADH! The thing is I work in a caring environment

deadliens? deadlines!

Oh no, not one of those 'caring' environments that involves shafting the workforce (not in a porny way)?

My dsis had problems in her halls of someone pinching milk. Eventually one of the biochemistry people tuck up a notice over the fridge:
"To whoever pinched my milk: You need to know it was not just milk, it was in fact a bacteria culture for an experiment I am doing next week. Please contact a doctor asap"

Person they suspected was very quick to come round (looking green) and tell him that the food fridge was an inappropriate place for such experiments.

Milk never went again.

Clocking in to admit to succombing to passive aggression on note form recently.
Living with my screwed up ex (how Soviet of us) who is also a prolific food thief. He has been informed that "stealing is BAD for the hairline".
This is evil because he's worried about his hair, I don't give a shit, life is good when you have a couple of PA notes jostling each other for fridge space in the kitchen....

Last year a whole conversation in notes sprung up on our halls pantry wall. It was like mould, growing every day. All jolly good fun.

This has happened at my workplace in the past. I now take my packed lunch in a lunch bag with one of those frozen pack things in the bottom and leave it next to my desk. It stays cold until lunchtime. Sorted!

SKWK I'm going to do that just need to find my freezer blocks.

Ive got a insulated double zip lunchbox that could easily have a mini padlock through each zipper..
If I were you I'd be tempted to get one the same.

A newly married friend took off her engagement and wedding rings to wash her hands. Walked back to her desk. Remembered and ran back. Gone. So sad for her. CCTV showed who it was that had gone into the loos in that time so it was definitely one of those 7 people but how to prove it?

I was going to start a thread today about someone helping themselves to the naice hand cream I keep on my desk. I was wondering whether giving the clear a pot of it for Christmas would be too PA...
