      LOL, so I’m pretty sure her name really is Brenda. Years ago, we did a Pi(e) day thing. And one of the ladies, who complained to management about an optional employee lead event (myself and some other people just threw it together) where we offered food to people who didn’t participate, went to the fridge and was overheard saying how her husband and kid would like the pie and just stole a whole goddamn pie as she left.

    I kind of do. One of the managers hides supplies we need because we “use too much of it” or something and it affects the budget. We need to ask her for the supplies if we need it. So, I just stopped doing the work that requires those supplies. Her precious budget is safe.

      Totally agree. My guide is always if they don’t care then I don’t care. Want to make me jump through hoops to do my job. Fuck you.

      This woman is a nightmare, her name is Susan, and Susan recently started swallowing the supplies and we have to wait for her to poop them out if we want to use them. And as if that wasn’t bad enough she makes us talk her out for a walk whenever we want anything. Yesterday I took Susan for a walk and had to wait ten minutes for her to shit out a stapler.

    My job has the opposite problem. We have four refrigerators full of food that no one wants to eat. People bring in homemade meals in glass containers that end up rotting and growing mold. Every so often someone gets the courage to clean all the refrigerators out, but it doesn’t take long before they turn back into giant trash cans again.

    Why does one of the jugs have an infection warning on it? Are these bio samples at a lab and the locks are a safety measure?

    The wasted space bothers me more. If I am bringing milk for my own coffee, I decant it into a small container. If bringing lunch that needs refrigerated, I take it out of the insulated lunch bag before putting it in the refrigerator! I see huge insulated lunch bags in there, are you literally insulating it against refrigeration, and do you need to take up a cubic foot for your sandwich and apple?

    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 used to live in a shared house and made some hot honey. Bunch of chillis chopped and simmered in honey.

      I found a tiny amount on a pizza was good to add a hint of sweet and made it pretty spicy. Can’t imagine having it concentrated on toast goes down too well but that is what someone did when they stole it.

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

      Lol a guy at a shop I worked at did this. He had already given his two weeks notice, but he got fired anyways. People were sooo pissed. Lol there weren’t enough toilets for everyone who got it to use at once. I thought it was hilarious and well deserved, they actually gave me a talking to for laughing out loud about it.

      Question: I bring milk into the office laced with powerful psychedelics. It is clearly labeled with my name, saying “This is mine and for my consumption only. Do not drink”. Someone takes and drinks it.

      Is this illegal?

          Depends on how the law if formulated.

          For instance technically having psychedelics wouldn’t be illegal in Finland. VERY technically. Insofar that all drug crimes are defined as something being used, or being meant to be used, as an intoxicant.

          So like legally there’d theoretically be wiggle-room, since one might just have milk with psychedelics in it, without ever having any intention of consuming it, or offering any to anyone else. But it’s not your problem if someone goes and eats stuff not intended for consumption.

          Obviously it would never fly, but like… technically.

            Ok what about prescription medicine crushed up and put in the milk instead. Someone else drinks it by and they die because of an adverse reaction to the meds.

              Well both would obviously suffer from the fact that any reasonable person could expect someone to accidentally drink milk from the fridge. That being the reason to adulterate the milk to begin with.

                Ok, but there is a sign on the milk in bold letters that clearly states the milk contains prescription medication and is intended for the recipient only. It is the only way for the person to take their prescription, and they need to take it at work. There is only one fridge.

                Someone who doesn’t speak English drinks the milk and dies.

      This reminds me for some reason about the time I found a half-full can of vintage rat poison at an antique store. It was basically entirely arsenic.

    So glad I live 5 minutes from work and can go home for lunch. Mostly it’s to see the dog but it’s also nice not worrying about this crap.

    I only ever use our group’s mini fridge in our cubicle for a seltzer I drink at the end of the day. Even that is a chaotic fridge filled with rotting food and too many condiments and creamers. I just put a can in to cool in the morning and take it out to drink by the end of the day.

      What’s up with people who leave stuff in there for weeks knowing that they are never going to eat it but are just too lazy to throw it out?
