Work tension rose to a boiling point when this parent realized that their kid's birthday cake had been eaten by a coworker. And with nobody to claim their crime, the allegations and accusations went flying around the office, rightfully making everyone feel terrible about the entitled cake theft.

Planning your child's birthday can be stressful. You have to consider what new theme they're interested in at the moment, there's a ton of pressure to find the perfect gift, and you're always secretly nervous that none of their friends will show up.

After their daughter had survived a harrowing year, all this parent wanted to do was make them feel special for their birthday.

But after picking up the sheet cake for the big day, the original poster (OP) of this story had to go in to work for a few hours, storing the cake in the communal office fridge, which is where their parental patience was pushed far past its threshold. Scroll for the well-earned work scolding that took place when this parent's dreams of the perfect birthday party were shattered by one coworker's selfish dessert cravings.
