Who stole my bloody sandwich?

Try this one-put an opened, nearly full pint of milk in the fridge, after 1 week, itl be nearly empty, but no one will take the last drop. For some reason people think its ok to take it for tea/coffee.

Everyone who's posted - Thank you, you've brightened up my morning no end :rotfl:

OP I hope you catch the culprit. I agree with those who recommend a fiendishly nasty/hot filling next time.

You will be avenged

The Laxative idea is good but slow working. What you need is a good layer of v.strong chilli powder.

The one coughing, spluttering & gagging is the guilty one.

Surely a sandwich doesn't have to be in the fridge in this weather? Keep it on your desk!

Poor you. Our office is heated/air conditioned so the outside temp has little bearing on the inside temp.

Hubby tells similar story when working in an office some years ago. A notice went up after lunchtime one day saying, "Congratulations to the sandwich thief! Today you have had kitekat corners, pedigree chum parcels and bonzo baps!" Yes, they were so fed up they really did make up pet food sarnies. :eek: Just hope the poor thief wasn't some debt ridden starvation case

that is just mean... similar story but my ex used to work somehwere where there was a bloke who always took the biggest cake on peoples, birthdays, never bought a round, went round the offices pinching biscuits, etc but always took the day off on his birthday so he didnt have to buy any.. so on his birthday he bought a choccie cake and grated laxative chocolate on the biggest slice knowing full well that is the one he would take.. true to form he did and ended up being off work for a few days.. he even missed an important sports event he was playing in.. he came in and someone let slip what had happened and he went MAD.. but served him right IMO...

he's fair game in that case.

my old man works as a solicitor for a local authority and one of his colleagues there once spent 45 minutes in the kitchen deliberating to an imaginary courtroom about the great milk theft of '09, calling people to witness as they came in to make a brew.

the best part?

he (and the 'court') correctly worked out who stole the milk

This happened to me some time ago so I put a message on the Internal Bulletin Board marked Urgent and advising whoever had inadvertently taken my sandwich to contact casualty immediately as my sandwich contained my medication which could be extremely dangerous if taken without a corresponding tablet. I never had a response but never lost another sandwich either

My father had the same trouble happening. One day the culprit was found out after he suffered a bad coughing attack from behind his desk.
Dad put a layer of chilli powder inbetween the cheese and pickle....never happened again

We had a problem with one guy stealing milk, food and plates / bowls when I was in halls at university - we spiked a pint of milk with very strong laxatives - about half a packets worth (we ground the tablets up and it seemed to dissolve ok)l The thief ended up spending most of the weekend on the toilet and we never had any problems with milk or food being stolen again.
