Title: Office Lunch Thieves
Post by: AppleJack on May 26, 2011, 08:55:31 AM
I love these people. I wonder if they are afraid of getting caught, or just don't give a eff? Either way it takes some balls. It's only happened to me once and it was glorious. The best was when my boss had clients in for an afternoon meeting - she got a giant cookie/treat platter for the guests and kept it in one of the fridges. Someone had taken it out of the fridge and placed the platter on one of the tables (free game). That crap was destroyed by the time the meeting rolled around. It was pretty neat.

My old job used to have a full fledged training classroom type area.  They would cater every training session.  food would be delivered 15-30 min early and was usually pretty high end.

Was never enough left for those in training by the time the training broke for lunch.

Got free bbq, lydias, etc like once a week.

Sometimes I use the BBQ sauce or hot sauce people leave in the fridge in the break room.  Is that wrong? 

We have mini-fridges all over the office. Many stocked with beer. (we can drink at our desk after 4:30 every day) I saw a mini-keg of new castle in the fridge behind me. I don't know whose it is but I want it.  Maybe I should find it tonight when I leave.

we have a notorious bag and tag'r in our building. Always loads up plates of the food leftovers after meetings and claims it. I want to steal that crap everyday. Really pisses me off when she leaves it in the fridge and forgets about it. :flush:

Let me get this straight - this chick in your office bags leftovers from meetings and puts them in the fridge with her name on it for later? Holy crap she should be fired on the spot. You and your coworkers should not stand for such lunacy.

Or you could just take the food she bagged, then eat it right in front of her.  If she says something about it, tell her that you'll reimburse her whatever she paid for it.

My former secretary was just like this.  Literally hovered around any meeting so she could load up a dinner plate with Jackstack the second it adjourned.  She would take 2-3 plates. 

In our cafeteria we had vending machines that are free.  So soda, gatorade, vitamin water there for the taking.  The day she gave 2 weeks, we told her no, just go ahead and leave now, she packed up her belongings and one of our HR ladies caught her trying to load a banker's box with free pop on the way out the door.

That sounds like a good idea, but eventually, meat goats would be loved by weirdos as much as horses are and people would look down on us for enjoying our tasty meat goat meat.

I can't read goEMAW hungry anymore. All of our threads just drift toward the topic of meat goats. And then I get hungry and start craving goat and start salivating everywhere. I really want K-State's meat goat facilities to thrive and all, but I'm just going to end up stealing all the meat goats due to unquenchable cravings if this doesn't stop.

my absolute favorite story here is when a chick here brought her soup in a tupperware thingy. someone jammed out on the soup, washed the tupperware bowl out, and THEN put the clean tupperware thingy back in the fridge.

AJ-

Great story for ya.  I was bringing frozen burritas for lunch for awhile.  I had them in a Dillon's bag in the freezer.  I didn't eat any for awhile as I think I had run out, but I went to check and WHAT? there is a Dillon's bag with like 6 burritas in here!  SCORE!  So I went with a burrita at lunch that day.  I had another the next day and all of a sudden some woman confronted me in front of like 15 other people and asked me "Where did you get that burrita?"  I told her I got it at Dillon's and that this brand is pretty good and that she should try it because it is p. good.  She said "No, where did you get that burrita?  Out of a Dillon's bag in the freezer?"  And then I knew that there was a problem and all 15 other people were watching and I was caught. 

An accidental, failed work freezer burrita thief.
