Might be time to find another job

Imagine working in an office where you need to do that? Who says to themselves, "gee, i didn't bring that thing so it must be OK for me to have some"? These kinds of tactics don't come from nowhere
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.

I don't get how the people here are offended by this. Entitlement? It's so fun to bring something in to just to find out it's gone before you even opened it. Even with a god damn name label. If I bought a carton of milk, I wouldn't mind sharing some, but not the entire thing for one person to make porridge from. At that point you cunts can just buy your own shit.
I'm offended because this is indicative of a much larger problem(distrust amongst coworkers) and I don't think people should be so satisfied with this band-aid solution.
This feels like a microcosm of society as a whole right now. 3 individuals taking individual action that won't solve the root problem.
And I can easily imagine the boss(or anyone with actual authority) having their own personal fridge and just ignoring the situation entirely no matter how often it's brought up.
You can feel fully justified in doing something and still hate having to do it.

If only there was a whey to revive it.

Duh, a sandwich left in the fridge is the kind of thing no one would ever expect being someone's personal lunch. You're obviously in the wrong to complain about it. Asshole.
I know, right? I often go shopping and buy ingredients and (sometimes) cook those ingredients, then slice them, assemble a sandwich, pack it, bring it to work, put it in the staff fridge and... then... do you know what... I just end up hoping someone will eat it so I don't have to. Why else would I just leave it sitting around in a lunchbox with my name on?

Just leave a decoy bottle laced with large amounts of sleep medication and laxatives. Sit back. Watch the shitshow unfold.

I think it's hilarious personally, but I always think calling people weird sickos for normal stuff is funny

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.
How does that work since lactose isn't a protein? Is it just that the affected people assumed they were intolerant of lactose, but it was actually the protein?

Why do they keep the glue in the fridge?

wrote on last edited by [email protected]It's just a joke about how weird human culture is. I wonder how you infer anything about me as a person because of one silly joke? Only super weird people can notice weird cultural things and make jokes about it? Genuinely curious about your reasoning here.
To me its much weirder that it's normalized to drink baby milk from another species, to the point that it seems completely normal, but each to their own.

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.
A guy was drinking and eating people's food at a job I had.
One day someone peed in a pepsi can and put it back in the fridge.
Later the guy comes out of the kitchen screaming he's gonna punch whoever did that.
The Big boss comes out of his office and asks him why he drank someone else open can? And when he almost got calm the boss told him to leave and never come back, since he said he would hit someone and that taking sips out of others drinks was unsanitary.
It was soooo funny to see him leave in rage, hit the store sign and hurt himself doing so.
The guy who peed in the can was scared to lose his job. The boss told him "next time to come to me before taking drastic actions" and all was swell.
In the end it was a beautiful day!

Likely that was her only food source.

Definitely not. She was salaried and made a little more than double what I do.

This guy couldn’t walk without dragging his feet
That fucking drives me up the wall. How did your parents fail so badly that they couldn't teach you to pick up your feet?
The inside corner of his shoes were warped and smashed because he’d just slip his feet into his shoes and wiggle em in. Dude was so lazy I was convinced he never washed his water bottle and had mono or something cause the dude even spoke slow, like Kevin from the office

Just start calling her The Food Thief in front of people at every opportunity. Public shaming can be powerful.

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've worked at engineering offices here in Australia that provided actual full on espresso machines. I don't get that now I'm in the public service.
