eating co-workers food!!!!!

I can not believe today a co worker around 60 yrs old took my yogurt that I put in our small fridge and ATE it IN FRONT of me! Theres only 5 of us in the clinical office. C'mon someones bound to notice that ITS NOT YOURS!!!!!!!! I couldnt say anything bc I felt like I would be yelling at my mother ; )
I guess i will continue to feed her daily!

What was the Ann Landers expression? No one can take advantage of you unless you let them. You need to say something to her. You don't have to yell, you just need to say "Excuse me, I think that's my yogurt" or label it clearly.

Thats a good idea to label it.

I had someone take my sandwich once. I had a pretty good idea who it was, but she wouldn't admit it. I was pi$$ed! The nerve of some people.

OOHH that gets me so mad! I usually pack my DH a lunch for work. A couple of months back someone was eating everyone's lunch. I was so annoyed that I felt like putting his name on his lunch the next day. I didn't though, but if you didn't bring the food and it's not your, don't eat it !!!

Re: eating co-workers food!!!!!

In our office, we started missing food out of the refrigerator and nothing could stop the food from disappearing...we found out later a homeless man was living in the empty office next door and sneaking in with the cleaning crew...He was eating, surfing the web and watching TV to his heart's delight!

As far as your coworker, I probably wouldn't say something unless it happens again. It may have just been an honest mistake.
