  • (TW: BUGS) This is the first time I premeditated my revenge, and I am so glad I did.
  • I am currently doing an internship as a lab assistant. Every day, I make myself something light to eat (mostly sandwiches), as I don't stay there long enough to have to pack lunch.

  • Since we are not allowed to carry bags inside the lab, we take our mobile phones and wallets with us and leave the bags outside.

  • After looking around, we discovered the empty boxes in the bin. We talked to our supervisor about it, and she sort of shrugged it off and wasn't of any help.

  • On day four, I tried to hide my bag under someone else's bag, hoping my food would be safe.

  • I also carried it in a paper bag just to be extra careful, and it did work that day, but unfortunately, it started going missing the next day again.

  • The next day I tried something different, I took a bite out of my food from both ends, but sadly that didnt work and I ended up finding the bitten parts in the bin along with the paper bag.

  • Now, one or two days would have been fine, but this has been going on consistently for more than a week, and I finally reached my breaking point.

  • Now, I have a lot of pets, mostly reptiles, and any reptile owner would know that a reptilian diet consists of DELICIOUS bugs.

  • So I devised my petty revenge today. I woke up an hour earlier than usual and prepared the best-looking sub sandwich I've ever prepared.

  • I seared the buns, grilled the chicken, and prepared the sauces by hand. I placed each layer carefully on top of the other.

  • Then, the fun part, I gouged a hole perfectly at the point where half of the first bite and half of the second bite would be.

  • I took out the filling and scooped some bread out to make just a big enough hole.

  • Then, I took a handful of Fluker's gourmet-style insect mix (crickets, mealworms, waxworms, and Dubia roaches are generally safe for human consumption, as they are raised specifically for food) and stuffed it inside.

  • I added a layer of shredded vegetable toppings and condiments, then placed the top bun and made sure it looked completely not sus.
    via No-Relationship6242
  • And it did not, it looked so good that I was tempted to take a bite( dw I didn't.) I went to the lab and placed the bag exactly where I usually do.

  • I was so excited the entire day I couldn't focus on work. After work, | opened my bag and, sure enough, my food was gone again.

  • I checked the bin, and there it was, my delicious sub sandwich, with bugs oozing out of one end.
    via No-Relationship6242
  • That made my whole day, maybe even my whole week. I can confidently say they won't be taking my or probably anybody's food again tomorrow, but just in case they do, I might make a worm version of the sandwich the next day.
