To want to do more than raise an arch eyebrow at colleague?

[Iklboo]

Today I brought in a largish tin of biccies for our section (you know, the Family Favourites use-the-empty-tub-as-a-MP's-second-home size). There are currently 6 of us in the section.

I made a brew and took 2 biccies.

Colleague (moany one who was difficult when we were trying to book Xmas meal out) says in a pointed voice 'those biscuits are for everyone you know'

I gave her the Paddington Iklboo hard stare for a minute and said in a nice measured voice 'yes I know, there's plenty for everyone'

She says 'Well, I'm just saying'

Other colleague: 'Iklboo did bring them in'

Moany colleague: 'I know, but we should share them'

FFS - 2 biccies out of about 100???

AIBU to be a bit irked?

forgot about
Should have said 'largish tin of dunkable sweet confectionary'

i woul dhave pick up about 20 and shoved them in my mouth and spat crumbs at collegue

I'd be tempted to reclaim the whole tin as my own - and force colleagues to come and ask for a biscuit, or wait until they are offered one .

Hope you enjoy the remaining 98....

I'm with piprabbit. But apart from that,

i'd tell her "no for you then.

I think you should maintain eye contact, while systematically licking all the good ones and putting them back. Then offer her the tin.

What a moose!!

I'd have rammed one of those cigar thingys up her arse nose!

seriously, this is the 2nd time i've forgotten to close my speechmarks!

"

Ooooh, I love Chickenshavenolips idea. Go on Iklboo, do it, please, now.

I'm tempted to revert to school days and say 'well you're not having any now. Come on friends' and the rest of us skip off to another room with the s

YANBU! I would put them in my drawer and only get them out when she has gone to lunch/too the toilet. But then I am horrible like that

Oooh the perfect thread to use

Yes, lick them all and keep 'em to yourself. What a wierdo your collegue is.

God almighty, what a miserable bitch! What's her problem?!

There is really only one response to this thread...

OMG, there's a emoticon. I am officially in heaven.

Tell colleague to naff off. Enjoy biccies.

I would ask her if she was still in that diet?

Did you take two of the same ?

Can't do it anyway. am not Roger Moore.

If you took the two green triangle quality street chocs I'd have your guts for garters thobut.

To be fair, no. Two different s. Maybe that's what set her off.....

You're welcome to the green triangles. I have been known to start wars over the caramel cup/barrel though

Just make sure you eat all of her fav

Next time, take three.

Make a chart and stick it up on the wall by the biscuit tin. On it, make a row for each person in the office, with a series of boxes in each row; and make it the rule that every time you have a biscuit you have to put a cross in a box in your row. That way you can keep tabs on who's had how many biscuits. Make it a rule that no one may approach the biscuit tin alone: there always has to be someone else there to witness your actions. You might also introduce a cap on the number of biscuits that can be consumed in any one working day, just to make sure that gluttony is kept firmly in check.

And send a memo out, outlining the above proposals.
