the office fridge

[beastieangel01]

I bring in a carton of soy milk for myself and it usually lasts around two weeks as I drink it every day and all. Well, I brought in a carton last week, and I wasn't here Friday, but I had one small glass everyday. There was MORE than half when I left it. I was out for the first two days this week. Yesterday I didn't have any, I go to get a glass today and there are TWO SIPS LEFT.

I swear to god. You KNOW you didn't bring it, WHY WOULD YOU USE IT WITHOUT ASKING FIRST!

FUCKERS.

Soy milk ain't cheap bitches :mad:

Anything I take to work which is community property and might be tempting, I just label it with my name. That takes care of it.

I don't trust the "if it ain't yours, don't eat it" sort of policies enough to not put my name on stuff.

[beastieangel01]

I just can't believe it's even an issue. They KNOW they didn't bring it, wtf? And labels would work I imagine, but we are all adults, we should know better. Meh.

We have message board at my work (on our server) that everyone checks every day and I made a post in regards to it. :p

[abcdefz]

I don't know what you folks' policy is, but, here, if something's not labelled and could be considered community stuff (milk, salsa, ketchup, a cake), then it's considered fair game.

[beastieangel01]

nothing is labeled at all. Mainly because I think we never really had this problem.

I swear it's the Sales team. Sales guys are the devil.

Glue a mousetrap to the back of the carton so when they grab the carton the trap goes "WHAM!" and the thief goes "OUCH!".

You should put a note on it like Queen Latifa's Juice in "Barbershop"

[QueenAdrock]

Just put a poisoned soy milk in the fridge for a week. After that, the perpetrator will be dead, and you can bring your real soy milk.

[beastieangel01]

WORD! (Save a few.)

Maybe you should also post the name of your doctor and the medicine you are taking for that new strain of herpes that you have;)

BRILLIANT.

This is giving me a great idea for a drawing too. Hrm. Not the herpes part. That'd work too, perhaps.

someone at my job eats off customers catering trays. that's pretty disrespectful, and it's theft.

i left a few frescas in one of our fridges, figuring i'd just drink em the next day. 12 hrs later they were gone. hey help yourself, i'm fucking loaded!

i told a guy i worked with and he wasn't surprised. he had a similar situation with some gatorades he had stored in there. his solution? he unscrewed the cap off one and added a few drops of visine. he said he was curious as to who was drinking all his stuff. well, he found out when a guy ran across the ramp, shitting his pants all over the place.

classy.

[Otis Driftwood]

Ask your bf to jizz some jizz in the soymilk. Tell the perp he has AIDS... (y)

[Lyman Zerga]

if i would steal something then it sure had to be something better than soy milk like ummm.... cow milk!

In all the offices I've ever worked in (and I've had a million jobs) I've found that putting your name on shit does absolutely nothing but tell the thief whose food their eating.

[abcdefz]

I guess I'm lucky, then.

And the flip side of it is: it does stop me. Like, if there's a pizza that's been sitting in the fridge for a couple days, I would assume it's anybody's, but if there's a name on it, I'll ask the person.

Same with something like, say, a pie or a bottle of ketchup or whatever. If something's clearly NOT a single-serve or a brown-bag item, it just looks like it was brought in for whoever wanted some. But put a name on it and there's no way I'd just sneak some of it.

[enree erzweglle]

There are often tiny mushroomy things growing up out of the drain in our work's kitchen. I don't even open the door to the work fridge.

Also, when I was pregnant, people stole the milk and veggies that I brought in and kept in the fridge. They knew that that stuff was mine and they stole it right from a pregnant woman. Soulless bastards. :)

word up! makes no sense to me. especially from adults.

Im digging the mouse trap idea.

Also...try the ole visine in the drink thing. I don't know if it actually works or not. but do it. i mean a whole bottle. its supposed to give em wicked shits or something.

Yeah...i would definitely do that.

[TimDoolan]

I know who took it.

Soy milk is nasty. The only people who would take it were the ones who would only use it in small amounts.... which would be.....

The Coffee drinkers!!!

Thats right, just go after the person that takes milk in his/her coffee and drinks alot of cups and you have got your thief.

[cosmo105]

Soy milk is nasty.
no it's not. i'd rather have it than puss-filled, bloody cow's excretion. they get rid of their toxins through that. we're not meant to be drinking milk, from another mammal, after infancy - no other animal does either of those things.


i swear i never do vegan rants like that


dr., visine does that? seriously? whoa.

I LOVE soy milk. Especially vanilla soy milk.

And the coffee drinkers? That's every single person in this office, then.

[The Notorious LOL]

I like soy milk on cereal :)


Its funny, everyone at my job steals stuff from the break room which is why I never bring in food. In fact, they have such intense distrust for the people that they employ that our break room TV is affixed to the cart it rests on to make sure no one makes off with a cheap ass off brand 19" TV and face termination and possible legal action.

[Lyman Zerga]

i was a half assed vegan for 2 months

but now i really cant see soy milk anymore


and i dont mind puss filled milk aslong as i cant taste/see it

[buddylee]

so he made one with canned dogfood .
that was the last of that kinda crap.

try lableing it breast milk.

That would be "E-V-E".




Back in my roommate days, we had friends over who would get drunk and eat our food the next morning while most of us were passed out.

Me and one of my roomies whipped up a nice batch of no-bake cookies with laxatives in them, and sure enough---they ate them.

I'm glad they left before our secret ingredient kicked in.
