I have a diet coke habit. I limit myself to one can a day when I work and usually keep a can for emergencies in the communal fridge.
yesterday evening while at work was one of those evenings so went to get out emergency can.
NO CAN!
Some thieving shithead has stolen it.
My coke. From the fridge.
It was even labelled.
I mean honestly who helps themselves to someone elses can of diet coke? would you do it? just take it? with no note or explaination?
And i then had to endure a further 5 hours of hellish work cokeless.

am v v v cross and have left a sign on the fridge door requesting politely it is returned.

TheMagnificent7 · 22/07/2008 19:43

Crikey. You can get mugged anywhere these days. I bet they sell it to buy coke.

Oblomov · 22/07/2008 19:45

They are probably using YOUR mug to drink YOUR diet coke out of.

NigellaTheOriginal · 22/07/2008 19:46

When I was at university I shared a fridge with 11 other girls. Floor above had 12 boys who used to raid our fridge at night.

So, we put a polite note on the fridge door asking them not to steal the fridge contents.

So they stole the fridge instead.

Mag7- very funny. Liked that. Clever.

expatinscotland · 22/07/2008 20:19

Can you send out an email asking for its return to the canteen area, no questions asked?

That's pretty low.

I admit ive been up for killing anyone who touches my food at work.

Its fine, but they are all full timers with an hour's lunch break and all have cars. I'm part time, dont get a break and cant drive. Someone eats my food then im going without, I cant get any more food. I find it difficult going 6 hours without anything to eat . Wussy, maybe but feeling sick because you're so hungry is not nice when some greedy shit stole your lunch! Piss off and buy your own sandwich.

Salad, however, they dont pinch. So maybe they're doing me a favour

Student days. Oh happy days. Yes Spag bol and curry. I don't recall cooking anything else for 5 years. (4 Years of BA and 1 year of MA). Stolen food and 'fridge antics'.
AHHHHHH.... HAPPY DAYS.
I had an electric meter in my room. Everyone else could put their 50p's in and get them out again. I couldn't. So I bought an extension lead and had my heater on permanaently. Plugged in to the Kitchen.

I once accidentally used another girls mug in the office for soup. When she found out she went absolutely bananas about it. Stopped speaking to me and bad mouthed me all over the place, just because I used her mug! She was an evil cow though, she once stopped speaking to me and my colleague for over a year (she worked in the same office and all credit to her she actually managed to not speak to us at all!) Then one day she started speaking to us again, we never dare ask her what the problem was. She was the kind of girl who would thump you in an instant and I was scared of her!!

Fantastic Showofhands!

Oooh, now we're on to mug stealing are we? That can only go downhill, because now you'll have to use someone else's if you want a coffee.

TheMagnificent7 · 23/07/2008 12:57

What was the witty slogan ?

scootermum · 23/07/2008 13:14

I manage a care service and we once had a BBQ for the service users and their friends and families.My Deputy had ordered all the meat off the internet and at the same time ordered himself a very expensive leg of organic lamb that he was going to make for a dinner party he was having at home the day after.
During the BBQ the leg of lamb was swiped from the communal kitchen fridge.We later found the packaging in the kitchen area in one of the service users bedsits.But we cant to this day understand how she cooked it, as in said kitchen there was only a two ring hob and a microwave!
She must have eaten it raw!

TheMagnificent7 · 23/07/2008 21:37

SM - I love that story

NigellaTheOriginal · 24/07/2008 17:54

When a friend of mine was at boarding school, someone kept using his shampoo, so he put peroxide in it.
The culprit was soon revealed....
