2. No, the fridge is neutral territory.
The counter and table, however, are another matter altogether.:evilgrin:

4. No. If its not mine then I dont eat it.
A co-worker of mine would always eat other people's food.
One night I got a burrito and a taco. Ate the taco and was full so I taped a piece of paper on my burrito with my name, the date and a big "DO NOT EAT THIS! PROPERTY OF J***S!". So the next night I come in and its gone. Then this co-worker tells me that she ate it because she was too lazy to get her own burrito, and a big thanks. WTF! Was it not clear that I didnt want anyone else to eat my damn food, that I paid for? I told her that she has to replace what she took and she casually said No and sauntered off.
Asshole!!!

5. LOL..the nerve of some people. I've never had it happen or did that
but I hear about it all the time at work. I can't believe people eat other people's food, it cracks me up.

16. Nope. She feels entitled to food left in the fridge.
She never brings her own lunch. Just steals and mooches from everyone else.

10. It happened to someone at my work just about every day
His Sandwich would be taken at least 2 or 3 times a week. So he got really pissed and make a "special" sandwich. He wouldn't tell anyone what he did to it. But whatever he did worked, whoever was stealing his food stopped after that.

I can't get him to tell me what he did to it, but maybe I don't want to know :scared:

11. Hell no. I treat others food with the utmost respect.
It's just not right to steal someone else's food. It's a low thing to do.

15. No way.
Happened to me a few times back when I worked retail and we had a shared fridge in the break room. Finally I brought in a big piece of coffee cake on a paper plate and left it in there. On the plate I had written "stealing a pregnant woman's lunch is really low" then covered it with the cake. I guess the lunch snatcher saw it because it never happened again.

17. A guy I worked with had a block of cheddar cheese in the fridge
and found huge teeth marks in it. What kind of person would bite a chunk out of someone else's cheese?
