    Huh. Here in NZ tea, (instant) coffee, milk (and usually Milo as well) are virtually always provided by an employer (only by social convention, as far as I can tell, not a legal requirement). I kinda assumed Britain would be the same since we must have got the custom from somewhere.

    In the US most employers used to provide coffee and some kind of creamer free for employees.

    About 25-30 years ago the capitalists realized their employees wouldn't quit over not having free coffee, so they stopped providing free coffee.

    Maybe you got the custom from them, but they have decivilized while y'all have maintained?

        I remember solving something similar using an opaque bottle with "GI supplements, don't drink" written in sharpie. Especially since the first time it was actually true and they didn't believe the warning.

          I literally had this argument with the coworker who would eat other people’s food:

          “ did you eat my fucking sandwich??”

          “Oh. It was yours?”

          “Why the fuck would you do that??”

          “Well i didn’t know it was yours”

          “But you knew for certain it wasn’t YOURS, since you didn’t make and bring it!”

          “People should label stuff if they don’t want it to get eaten”

          Most frustrating person i ever met. Laziest fuck ever too. This guy couldn’t walk without dragging his feet

          When I was in the Navy, a dude kept eating my fucking chips and salsa. It was a small work center, we all knew whose shit was whose in our tiny fridge. So one day I put really fucking hot hot sauce in my salsa and left it in the fridge. Motherfucker has the gall to get pissed at me like I'm the asshole. He didn't eat my salsa again after that.

            I had a roommate burn a bunch of shit from our garage because he didn't know who owned it.

            He's like, "I asked the other roommate and he said it wasn't his so I figured it was just here with the apartment."

            "Motherfucker there are 3 people that live here. If it's not yours, and it's not the other guy's, it's probably fucking mine and you should ask before you just light shit on fire."

            Normally I'd think it was because he just didn't like me, but after knowing the guy, he was just an actual idiot.

                    This picture makes my tummy hurt just looking at it. I have a bit of lactose intolerance, but even with lactose free milk.....I couldn't imagine just pounding down a tall glass of milk.

                      A more pertinent concern is having to work with the person whose behavior precipitated this reaction.

                      One person locking their milk makes them a weirdo. Three means someone else is.

                      I think that's the point if you read between the lines. I don't think this shit post is arguing that those who lock their milk aren't the victims here.

                      But on second reading idk

                        Then you run into the problem of people using excessive amounts of free milk leaving others without the chance to even get any. Better and safer to bring your own if you rely on it.

                        It works here. Every morning they go round the fridges (it's a big place) and bung another 4 pints in if it's getting low. The only time it didn't work was after a long weekend, when the bottle looked too full to replace but it was starting to go manky because it had been sitting too long after it was opened. I just went to another fridge with good milk.

                          Try A2 milk. It's from cows that produce milk without a specific protein that tends to bother lactose intolerant people.

                          Lactose free still bothers me to some degree, but A2 doesn't as much. The biggest issue it has is the sky high price.

                              Eh, I'm not a big enough fan of milk to really go out of my way to drink it. Mainly just lactose free milk for cooking/baking.

                                At one of my previous jobs it was the head of HR stealing people's food. Every time somebody complained he'd put up a sign and start "investigating", but nothing ever came of it despite having cameras pointed at the fridge. Eventually someone got tired of it, put up their own camera, and caught the head of HR on camera a couple times. Apparently the president of the company didn't care and brushed it off. I only found out because the guy with evidence blanket emailed the videos to the whole company. Of course he got written up for doing that.

                                    You know what, I wouldn't even bother if it happened once. I wouldn't like to be in the same situation, and while I would ask first, I understand we're not the same. The moment it happens the second time, though... Pure laxative with white food colouring.

                                        So I have to cook for my clients every day. Leftovers from most meals are kept in our staff fridge because the guys will absolutely gorge themselves on them if left alone.

                                        Every fucking morning, our old nurse would come in and head straight for the fridge to make a plate of those leftovers. Never once brought in her own breakfast or lunch. If the behaviorist didn't cook something for her for lunch when she was serving the guys, she'd go right back in the fridge.

                                        Say there was enough for a whole other meal and we planned to use it again, put a big label like "FOR FRIDAY'S DINNER." It didn't matter... You'd go in and there'd be a huge chunk missing. One day, she actually ate a half of a half-serving tray worth of meat. I went in the next day and flipped. "Oh, I didn't know it was for today." "IT HAS A LABEL ON IT THAT SAYS IT'S FOR DINNER! I HAVE NOTHING TO GIVE THEM NOW! YOU ATE HALF THE MEAT MEANT FOR 8 PEOPLE!" "Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know..."

                                        It didn't stop her, either... The worse part is that she was skinny as a twig.
