We all get hangry around lunch time in the workplace. Clients are tedious, your boss is on your back, and you've been dreaming about your leftovers in the fridge all morning. That's when ultimate disappointment and betrayal comes and hits you like a hangry slap in the face– your lunch was stolen. 

Prepping your lunch in the morning before work is arduous. Most of us would rather get take-out every day, watching Doordash roll up to the office with some piping hot food, but instead, frugal folks wake up early to scrounge together some pathetic sandwich at 6am, hoping that'll get them through the day. It never quite hits the spot, but we're still always looking forward to our lunch break. So even though you're not that excited about our meager lunch, it's still YOUR lunch; if a thieving little raccoon sneaks into the communal fridge every day to steal your snack, they'll likely see the flip side of your hangry rage.

Scroll onward for this insane work story of a man who gets the ultimate payback against a serial lunch thief by giving him a taste of some gnarly medicine– laxatives that is… For more stories of petty revenge, check out this story of a barista who gives a coffee shop Karen a taste of her own medicine when she finds out she works at a shoe store across the street.
