need suggestions....
So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.

No updates. I think it was the construction guys that don't work here... We did put laxatives in pepsi, the drink disappeared but no one said anything. I was hoping for an awesome outcome lol but construction is almost over. If anything starts being taken again I'll do the dye trick. It's hard to pin point when so many people are here.
to be continued. ....
Set up a camera lol! Even like blatantly in front of fridge. If this person works outside of office why is he in fridge to begin with? And if you see him go bear frudge and or turn camera around id place him guilty for the fact that he has no business in the fridge. Man people that are thiefs at work are the worse!
I worked at a clothing store and the head loss prevention guy would steal food out of the fridge all the time. The guy who catches people stealing was the guy stealing coworkers food. Everyone knew it and he was upfront about it. I thought it was messed up. Glad I always took my lunch and left it in my locker.
No we never found out who did it. We have some 24 hour teams in our building so it could have been someone there? We tried being detectives, analyzing the handwriting on the notes. The person wrote in all caps and looked like they were trying to change their handwriting. Both "victims" brought the note to their boss but not a whole lot the boss could do. An email went out to the building to be respectful of one another's things. Hasn't happened since the winter though.
Eta - we did suggest the camera in the room. Most of the building has cameras since its a secured building but nothing came of it.
No update. And our delivery driver is our cleaner. We have had construction crews in and out, it could be them. But as far as recording them, not sure how long the battery life is on the go pro, and I'm nervous someone will take it.
I'd be pissed, I think that is worse. Leaving the garbage in the fridge. Jesus, eating it was enough, but they had to put a note on it lolol man what a jerk!
We have someone at work that was taking frozen dinners and eating them then putting the empty box back in the freezer with a note on it mocking them. The one said -- mmmmm so yummy. It was really messed up. I thought my one co worker was going to lose her shat! I would too especially something so blatantly disrespectful. Any update OP?
Like a dang fool I over looked this post so many times lol. Definitely need the dye to catch them. But it would almost be funnier to do the laxatives on a can first because even if they didn't blame the drink it makes them suffer. Then the next one would be full of dye and you would have satisfaction of finding out who it is and that they got the s*** s before.
Nothing so far! Lol and I was thinking if they get 'sick' from the laxatives, would they tell anyone? Or be super embarrassed. And would they even think it was the drink?? Or something bad they ate? I think the only way to find out is vinegar and dye. Hmmm
My damn can if sprite is still in there. Mean while they took an opened pepsi from my Co worker! Ha tomorrow we are putting laxatives in a pepsi!
I don't share my food! Lol I'll eat my SO's food any day. Drinks and bites are all mine. I get grossed out if someone wants a 'swig' of my beer for taste testing lol NO. Nope, now way no how.
@ladrtron I'd be so grossed out if I knew someone took a bite of my food!! I'm never leaving any food or drinks in the work fridge ever again. Aren't you afraid of getting herpes? Lol
This is scary.
I'm superrude.... But when i see a good drink/food thats opened and just wait in the fridge without a name on it at work i'll grab a Quick bite/sip.
Yes i said it.... Sadly i also told my co-workers (i suck at keeping secrets?) so now its more of an inside joke. Damn, i was doing so well being rude.
Nothing yet ? and hot peppers is still there. I didn't anticipate it taking so long. Lolol
Oragel gone! Hot pepper still there... haven't heard any thing yet lol
Poke a small needle into the top near the rim then cut a small hole in the bottom. Drain drink out then fill with vinegar. Best results do it with lemon drinks. Fill from bottom of can then use hot glue gun to seal hole. Bam the thief will take a big swig of vinegar and probably be sick. Use a dye to catch them if you want.
So they were still there when I left work. I guess I'll have to check Monday! I'm bummed lol I wanted to find out today! Oh and I'm sure hot peppers and oragel won't stop them. Laxatives and mentos will be next lol
You know, my husband comes home today after being gone for a few weeks. Normally I shut my phone off and don't do BB while he's home for a couple of days.
Buuuuut.....I'm so goddamned invested in finding out what happens with this story! So I'm going to have to stick around.
On a side note I'm only slightly bummed that you didn't take my laxatives suggestion. ???
Mission officially started. Planted the drinks. I didn't have time to do the mentos trick but I put one in with oragel and one with a habenjero(sp?) pepper. Let's see how long it takes for it to be taken.
Ps I did write my name on them to be safe lol. I plan on doing the mentos thing still. I want to set up a go pro to record it ?
I saw a post on FB that a woman (must have been pumping at work) had a bottle of creamer in the fridge. She got back to it and it was empty so she taped a note to it saying something about whoever stole the "creamer" must have really enjoyed her breastmilk! So try something like that... Like if you get Starbucks add some bmilk or have a friend do it. After its gone either put a note on the fridge about what you did or tell everyone and see who's face goes into discuss and then you have your culprit! :)
I'm making my shopping list and I just added mentos lol
I think the mentos thing would be hilarious. I wish I worked somewhere that someone was stealing my drink just so I could soak them.. or turn them all sort of funny dyed colors. Seriously, do something to make them really not do this again, not just use a camera. Like make this an entertainment opportunity for the office.. but don't tell anyone because then it may not work.
I'd set up a camera or ask your boss if there's a security camera. Most places have zero tolerance for theft.
Get your hands on some methylene blue. It's a dye that turns urine BRIGHT BLUE, used in medical procedures to see if urine has leaked. Guarantee the thief will stop after Smurf-piss.
Had this problem once at work. Somebody brought in a bottle of that stuff you spray on stuff to keep animals from chewing on it. You can get it at a pet store I think it's called ick I've also seen it called bitter apples. Dude never touched anything else out of the fridge again. He tried whining to the boss who laughed at him partially due to the really funny faces he was making after he finished gagging in the bathroom. Boss then asked him if he was really sure he wanted to make a complaint for not liking the taste of a drink he stole from the fridge that was clearly labeled with someone else's name also reminded him of the zero tolerance policy on theft. He put in his two weeks.
I would tie a thread around a Mentos, put it in the lid of a bottle of pop, then close it up. Cut the thread off so he doesn't see it. When he opens it up the Mentos will fall into the pop and cause it to continuously fizz all over him. Or you could take the high road and add a case of drinks to the fridge with a note saying, to whomever is stealing our drinks, please help yourself to one of the refreshing beverages that don't belong to any of us, enjoy :)
My SO has a go pro.... I can set that up but have no clue about them lol anyone have tips? It's an older model.
It may be petty, but isn't taking a drink that you didn't pay for petty? Would it be ok if someone stole your lunch? What about your car? Say it was free game being parked in the street lol. Drink, lunch, car.. to me it's all the same. It's stealing. No matter how small, big or how much it cost. It is wrong.
A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
Religion Conspiracy/Theory
**This is not to bash peoples religion and beliefs but to talk about our own theories and ideas** I would like to discuss a certain topic that came to mind after talking to my SO. I know some of you ladies like a good conspiracy talk so i would like to have a good discussion and hear thoughts of others. So back story my SO friends got very offended when he mentioned not believing in god or religion and it got me thinking. Is religion a failing form of goverment cont...
My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
“You look too young to be a mom!”
Or how about …
“You have a BABY? No! You look like a baby yourself!”👶
Oh wait, here’s a good one …
“Are you the nanny, ooor … ?”
“No, yeah I’m his mom,” I’d reply. “Yes, I am young,” I’d agree.
Considering I got pregnant straight out of college, I was certainly on the younger end of the parenting spectrum. (No one was more surprised than me, I assure you.) And yet, I wasn’t exactly a teen mom. I wasn’t juggling school courses and motherhood, like so many s...

I've been wanting to catch someone! I'm invested lol we will see what happens. But can't do much when drinks aren't going missing. Maybe they did suffer from the lax. And that made them stop? Not sure. But I need a controlled environment if I'm going to capture the thief. Too many people are in and out of the building at the moment. He's brought in two big crews to do floors and paint. They want grand opening to start in September.
