    Font - Posted by u/-Sathona- 5 hours ago I Undercooked my food to get back at a food thief. I started working at my new workplace 6 months ago, most of those here have been here for years (I'm one of 2 people that have been here less than 2 years.). There is an office food thief that will steal people's food and even throw away their Tupperware. She's been here 10+ years, and people have just adopted the mentality of "it is what it is, we can't do anything about it. She only takes 1 persons food

    Font - She took my food the last/first time i put it in the fridge resulting in me just not having food till 9pm. I've kept my food at my desk since, and stopped eating food that needs to be refrigerated, till I had an idea. I half cooked some food, made it look appetizing, but didn't make it even slightly edible. I left a typed up note on the food stating it wasnt fully cooked, but didn't leave my name on it.

    Font - She ate the food, and almost died, and had to spend 8 days in the hospital. The company can't figure out who's food it was, and now she's "Afraid to come to work, and thinks somebody wants to end her". It's been a couple of weeks since she returned, and she thinks everybody is out to get her and won't go near the kitchen, even brought her own mini-fridge for her desk area a few days ago.

    Font - Edit 1: It was my homemade chili, which has chicken and beef in it. I've had some people tell me that sounds gross, but everybody that has said that changed their mind after trying it. I basically made a full pot, got the idea before it was even close to properly cooked, scooped some into a Tupperware, then typed up/printed the note at home in a Tupperware that wasn't a part of my typical Tupperware set.

    Font - Edit 2.5: Quick note, if the food had been taken out of the container and cooked in a kettle for about 30ish minutes, till boiling really, it would have been safe to eat. But I usually slow cook my chili for half a day. If she hadn't have stolen it I would have likely used a workplace kettle and cooked it through fully to eat myself.

    Font - satanic-frijoles. 4 hr. ago At least she's staying out of the kitchen these days. Should this arise again, may I suggest ghost pepper sauce. You get an instant reaction! :D 494 Reply Share -Sathona- OP. 4 hr. ago Ghost chili pepper is the next step. If the behavior reboots. 502 Reply Share

    Font - Mirianda666 5 hr. ago Sounds like she lost her appetite for stolen goodies! People who steal other people's food deserve what they get. Reply Share 621 Lay-ZFair. 3 hr. ago It's not just the privileged attitude that I can eat someone else's food but also the lack of concern about leaving someone else with nothing to eat and no remorse for the cost of the food that they avoided by theft. 211 Reply Share

    Font - icantgetadecent- . 5 hr. ago You put food in the fridge that you knew needed to be properly cooked. You even put a note on it to remind yourself that it didn't just need reheating, it needed to be cooked. Nothing to see here. 530 Reply Share
