It reminds me of a skit from The Young Ones - anyone here watch or remember that?? It's so funny, anyone who knows the show subsitute their accents in your head

Rik: Has anyone seen the plate I left in the fridge?
Vyvyan: Oh, was that the one that had the sticky label with `Rik' written on it?
Rik: YES
Vyvyan (very sarcastic): Oh, I'm sorry Rik. I didn't know and I've eaten it. Every last bit!'
Rik:

!!!

And later:

Vyvyan (inventorying the fridge) `....one plate with green glob on it'
Rik: Yes, and I've spat on that Vyvyan so I don't advise you eat it!'.

I was a huge fan...... sorry about that everyone.....

I love the Young Ones! They were great: the sun cracking in half and Neil saying "Morning broke".

Bruce I'm sorry that you lost your sandwich. I would follow up and see if the cleaning company is going to reimburse your boss. We have that problem around here, except its not the cleaning crew, but our own employees (the family). luckily I sit upstairs and there is a fridge here that they don't touch, so I never worry about them eating my food. I just don't envy the people who use the downstairs.

What has this world come to where people cannot even leave medication or food around, with their names on it, because someone WILL take it!!!!

If I saw the person who did it, even though an email was already sent to their boss, I'd confront them, tell them that what they did was WRONG, and let them know that I have not only contacted their supervisor, but am sending the security tape to the supervisor.

I just cannot imagine the gull of some people!! Maybe I was just raised better, lol.

How rude can someone be??? Good thing this guy is on tape-hopefully he will se it and be embarassed enough not to do it again. Too bad you couldn't get a clip of the tape and have a picture taken and post on the :censor::censor::censor::censor: as a warning to others.

catsrnmom · May 3, 2007

I think this would be grounds for "job termination" since it is theft, and was caught on tape...Very very RUDE....

gemlady · May 3, 2007

I lurk at another site and there was a thread about this. One day, a person who was tired of having their sandwich taken used wasabi instead of the usual mayo.

The culprit was found after screams were heard in the breakroom.

Anyway, as mentioned before, be sure you have something with you from now on.

For the past few years, I've been working in call centers and every one has lunch thieves. No one has ever stolen mine but, my friend Jen's Lean Cuisine sandwich was stolen a while back.

Around Christmas, I keep little baskets of mints on my desk and people are free to help themselves. About three years ago, not only did some cretin take all of the the mints, they snitched the basket AND a picture of my Dalmatian.

rockcat · May 3, 2007

I would be soooo steaming!

Call him at home and tell him to bring you a corned beef & swiss.

Someone on the other site said a co-worker brought in a batch of cookies (in a Tupperware container) and set them out with the sign help yourself. Someone took the container because they didn't want the cookies. That's what they said when they were found with the container.
As for taking the pic of your dog...

We have a women that leaves out a dish of candy, i have taken some from time to time, when my surger levels got a little low, but she said he knows when i takes some cause i always leave her money

i would really be upset over the dalmatian pic

katiemae1277 · May 3, 2007

OMG!! I can't believe they did that, Bruce!!! and then put it back?? what a maroon

I think that would be grounds for termination too, especially as you have proof- this wasn't a Sliman's corn beef was it? although those cost more than $3, they are enough for at least 3 meals

and they are sooooooo good!!

YEEOUCH! Bet they decided to bring their own lunch after that!

mcat · May 3, 2007

This really stinks. People are so incredibly annoying. I hope the guy gets in big trouble. Next time wire the food to give the thief a shock or something. I'm sorry you have to deal with this nastiness.

tavia'smom · May 3, 2007

How rude.

that's the best I can offer as far as beating them up for you.

But we have people that do that lot where I work at too and alot of them even steal from residents.

panther pride · May 5, 2007

If I were you sense you are deiabetic, there very little you can eat, and you do have proof, I would sneak out and get something to eat. If your boss catches you and tried to dock you just show him the chamra sense of the man eating your sandwhich, tell him your dieabetic and cannopt go very long with food. see what happens.

Hopefully that lowlife will get fired and you will get pity from your boss

icklemiss21 · May 5, 2007

I feel your pain, the "management" (I use that term loosely) at work steals everyone's food and never replaces it and are obvious about it. They will walk right past you and tell you it tastes good.

I used to be the candy dish person at work. Still have the dish on my counter. But when they started taking the money that people left in another dish to help buy candy, I gave it up.

I keep the chocolate in my desk drawer and take it home at night. Friends know where to come, when they need a "fix" but they don't abuse it. A lot of us share snacks around the office and it all evens out.

icklemiss21 · May 5, 2007

We also 'share' snacks between the office staff like that Cindy but we still ask even though we would not say no to each other, it is just polite

but to eat someone's lunch/dinner is just rude

swampwitch · May 5, 2007

Wow, that's AWFUL! I despise thieves. There's no excuse.

Next time, tell your co-workers to write "soy meat" on the box. That'll keep most people away.

it would keep my away also.

any the bad news is they fired the guy, it seems someone had also been reporting money being taken out of the candy dish(like in neet post) . So even if he did not do the money it made him look bad getting caught stealing food.

now i do feel bad, i did not want someone to lose a job,

ok now i am mad
