This is the weirdest thread ever.
No, it's never happened at any placed I have ever worked. It's shocking to me that this is somewhat common...it's theft! | |

Happens in my office, especially with milk. If you don't label it, mfers will use it for their coffee. Won't even ask if it belongs to anybody. [Edited 11/24/10 14:37pm] | |

Ok, this I've seen. But stealing someone's lunch???
Fucked up. | |

Oh yeah, that too. Happened to one of my co-workers. Of course the culprit didn't fess up. But the company treated her to lunch.
We have our own fridge in the art department. I'm like the unofficial 'enforcer', so no one fucks with our shit. | |

When my job was making popcorn at the local cinema, there was a thief who would go into the lunchroom and go into people's lunchboxes and eat just one of their sandwoches, or one stick of their kit kat. Cheeky bastard, I thought it was quite funny untul he took half of my Bounty one day. It was the talk of the place. He soon progressed to nicking cash from jacket pockets, but would always leave you enough change for your busfare home. Once he even stole £10 and put £5 back in the wallet. Turned out to be one of the security guards in the end. | |

At my last job our boss would buy "office food" for everyone to nibble on during the day and milk and coffee what part of that, so it was easy for people to accidentally take someone's personal milk by accident. As the big boss's assistant, I started to label the company stuff so that wouldn't happen again.
A lot of us shared our food...but if someone were someone else's lunch....my boss would flip out. As generous as he was, he would not tolerate that kind of shit.

Oh, boy, I used to work on the job in NY around a person like that. People would go in the refridgerator for their food, and it would be gone. After a lot of complaints, someone got fed up, and put a laxative in the food. I wasn't there at the time, but someone told me he kept having the runs, and that's how they found the culprit. He never pulled that mess, again , but the person who put the laxative in the food, and others was informed by the bosses not to do it again because if something serious happens, they could get sued, something like that. | |

Exactly. It's your property. | |

we had someone stealing food around here, too, and the person who had his lunch stolen sent a memo to all the staff that was totally sarcastic "...pizza is a special treat...I only eat it once a year...it was my birthday...next time let me know and I will buy you something, do you like Tuna fish? I will make it with celery..." it went on for a whole page, and at the bottom it said "...by the way you could be fired for this..."
So the whole staff (except those he worked closely with, and management, since they could not have done it!!) was accused of stealing his pizza.
It really boosted morale around here. My Legacy

They've planned it. Some people with health and heart problems cannot take certain laxatives. Also, it's like someone putting a mickey in your drink. That's assault, too. The situation should have been dealt with another way, even though it's nerve wrecking to have someone eat your food. [Edited 11/24/10 16:17pm] | |

I don't understand how a person could be prosecuted for adding "extras" to his or her own lunch. What if I happened to like dog shit on my sandwich but it didn't affect me and I could eat it like peanut butter? I take care and wrap it up carefully so it doesn't smell up the office. It's in a paper bag clearly imprinted with my name. It's on my desk, in my cubicle. Asshole steals the bag and eats my dogshit sandwich and gets sick. You mean to tell me I can be prosecuted? It's not like I made the sandwich for the theif and offered it to him knowing he would eat it. It's not like I deliberately put dog shit in his own food. I didn't even put the bag in the public fridge.
OK, another scenario. Mufuggah breaks in your house and decides to raid the fridge while he's there. You have a gallon of piss in there to take to your doctor for your 24 hour fasting blood sugar. Thief drinks it thinking it's lemonade or something. He gets caught but wants to sue you cause he drank your piss? Give me a fuggin break! [Edited 11/25/10 13:38pm] | |

It really pays to study and research the laws, especially where you live. Some laws are weird, but it saves you jail time. | |
