Default There's a food thief at work!

This has been going on for some time, and it's really starting to nark me off.

We have a fridge at work, which we all keep our own bits and pieces in, as once we are at work we are stuck here for 12 hours straight and cannot leave for lunch and other supplies.

It started off by large quantities of tea bags etc going missing, leaving you short when you come to work expecting them to still be there, then sugar etc.

Came in this morning to find hardly any milk left, there was nearly two pints when I left. Far more than if someone was just using it to make a few cups of tea if they had forgot theirs (which I wouldn't begrudge).

I left two sausages in the fridge in a sealed box, come in this morning to find ONE - how annoying is that?

So... enough's enough, I cant directly accuse anyone because it could be a choice of a few, so that leaves me with little choice other than to sabotage the milk, which is the most hit item.

I am thinking of spiking it with quite a powerful laxative, and then removing all trace of toilet paper from the building. Extremely childish I know but could be quite funny.

What do you think is this too much or well deserved?

I had to google that, but I like your style


Still not sure it would mix well with the milk, which is my intended target.

Cookie,

I had the same last year, and can tell you laxatives will do the trick.

I don't lose any more milk

Did you remove the toilet paper as well, or is that just OTT

You could lace the toilet paper with itching powder

I was thinking more of a trap - You said a sausage had gone missing. It should be fairly simple to devise a way of injecting a sausage with insanity sauce - Or a pasty or something like that.

If you get about a teaspoon in a concentrated area, they will wish thier tongue had never been born.

I once dabbed a bit on a my little finger and that me under the tap for 5 minutes.

The sausage was nowhere near as common as the milk.

Boogers - won't stop them but at least you'll have a sense of satisfaction.

We had someone nicking biscuits so when the tub was nearly done, we licked them all. Sure enough, a few were gone the next day and although the biccies were gone, it cheered everyone up

Ex-lax chocolate laxatives disguised as Cadburys bite-size chocolates will surely get their attention

I was thinking along those lines, maybe a small quantity of wee in the milk, or worse


But then again, I want them to suffer, and not be able to complain as they have taken someone else stuff

Why not just hold a staff meeting about it?

Say you know who it is, you've seen them. Your not going to take it any further as long as it stops, now.
I'm pretty sure after that it'll stop. You might even find out who it is. The one who looks guilty

I'm sorry but that's just far to a sensible solution for me

Hmmm I see your point.

OK. who about this then. Get 2 sticks of dynamite, some paint, and disguise the dynamite as a couple tasty Sausages. When the thief goes to get some free sausages for their tea........ Booooom

Problem solved

Bit of bluffing?

Leave a note in the fridge overnight "To whoever stole the milk last night, we urinated in it before leaving the office"

Set up a webcam to capture the reaction as well

Ex-Lax works everytime.....

leave a Mar's bar or similar in the fridge but first pop a hole in the bottom of the wrapper big enough to put a biro body through into the bar then break a few pieces of ex-lax and then insert right into the middle of the chocolate bar.

Then stand back and watch the increased activity near the loo's

You have upper class sausages? Do they have little crowns on them?

Milk.... Try "Pure Cap" instead. Though milk being fatty, tends to neutralise the effects of chillies. Of course, if it's fully skimmed or 1/2 skimmed....

Best used with people that think they are immune to spicy food.

It is hotter than you can possibly imagine, I mena like mind blowingly hot.

"The original Super Hot Sauce "Dave's Insanity Sauce" can now seem mild at 51,000 Scoville units (est.) when compared to some of the sauces in this category."
