Inverness,
I have just recently spent 130 minutes in a call, fixing a rather akward issue. I am exhausted mentally and physically because of this call and decide that
"now would be a good tima as any to go for my lunch"
with this thought in mind I proceed with joy and anticipation to the fridge that work has kindly provided. The thought of eating my home made garlic chicken, veg and rice before having a nice tasy muller corner was in the forefront of my mind.

I make my way to the fridge anticipating the lunch I had prepared myself. I arrive there and open the fridge door. To my horror the yoghurt was missing, not there, gone!!! I search high and low, nothing !!! some ******* has nicked it. grrrrrr

so not happy now, I was actually looking forward to my muller corner :(

anyone else here had a similar experience, :mad:

I feel this loss must be avenged, the guilty party brought before me to make some sort of pennance.

Don't put stuff in the staff fridge? Or you could go all hulk on them and smash the office up till someone admits to taking it.

Did you call your yoghurt porushinobu, I hear it helps to give them name tags.

Someone did that once, I left a note on the fridge to return what had been taken. The next day I had an envelope with a sorry note and some cash left on my desk. :)

It doesn't bother me as long as people own up and apologise, as mistakes happen.

Passive aggressive is the way to go in this instance.

Lol and I was all about guarding the fridge with a 12 guage for an entire day tomorrow :D

Now put a note on the fridge saying:

"To whomever ate the "cultures" I was keeping in the Muller corner port, you should probably seek urgent medical assistance. That pot contained a high contagious strain of the ebola virus that I had planned to use in an elaborate prank.

However, if you ate it joke's on you."

Now this would be perfect if I wasnt in a government job. would probably have MI5 on my ass in minutes :D

In an old place of work they actually put a sign on the fridge saying that taking of other people's food was a criminal offence as it was tantamount to theft, and that disciplinary action would take place! Didn't stop it happening though - mistakes do happen.

well... a mistake implies that they had their own muller corner in the fridge, meaning there would be a muller pot waiting for me whether it was mine or not.

Oooh! Another pro tip

Dont put your food items loose in the fridge, put them in in a carrier bag all together

That also seems to stop people from filching food.

You never know the person might have genuinely thought it was there corner, so having all your food together in a carrier bag will prevent cases of mistaken cultures

Edit: beaten to it :/

it was ontop of my lunch :( I was short on lpatic bags this time though. I still think a 12 guage or the explosive in the yoghurt is the best choice.

Fixed that for you.

Anyway, no, never at work. House sharing someone kept drinking my milk so I put eyedrops in it, no one stole my milk again.

OP have you considered it fell out of the fridge and smashed?

would have left a stain as peoples cleaning skill are poor in here :D:D
 
randal said:
Did you consider they were using your milk to nurse a sweet but poorly innocent kitten back to health?

Monster.

in that instance you would think they would leave a not to say,
"this culture muller pot was appropriated to nurse a poor kitten back to health, apologies"
:D

I used to enjoy a beef and onion pie for dinner but when placed in the work fridge they would often get nicked.
So I purchased said pie and left it on my parcel shelf in the car for 5 days, made sure any mold was removed and placed pie in the works fridge.
The chap who stole the pie suffered diarrhea of epic proportions and took a week off work.
My pie never got nicked again. :)
He was a greedy and justice was done.

*rubs hand together and places an evil contemplative expression on his face smiling*

I think I may do this, although the cat food one is tempting

I'm intrigued by the way this thread is going. I predict that another 2 pages will see someone suggesting a course of action that is technically cannibalism.

How do you accidentally take a yoghurt that you didn't put in the fridge? :p

Someone was just hungry and being opportunistic.

Not work but, I stayed in a crap B&B once and shared a bungalow with some woman, seperate rooms, lockable doors, but a shared kitchen and fridge.

I was trying to sleep, but she had her door open and kept talking on skype, talking to her cat, playing music, and loudly performing acts upon her person... I politely asked her to keep it down and was met with violent threats. In the morning I found that she had eaten 2 of the 4 donuts I had left in the fridge, so before I left I replaced the contents of her toothpaste tube with hand soap. :D
