Um, hee?

On our fridge at work someone posted a note a few weeks ago basically reading "Only eat YOUR food, don't use others' condiments without asking!" Late last week another note appeared, this one reading "Whoever took my 2-liter of Coke better replace it!" Just now I noticed a third note: "I put ½ of a tuna sandwich in the fridge last week or the week before. Whoever ate it, I will hunt you down. Then you will pay. Yes—you will PAY!" I'm thinking this is a joke. It better be a joke. Because if someone ate a week-old tuna sandwich, much less a TWO week old tuna sandwich, they've probably already paid their dues.

YOu know what? I can understand where this person is coming from. A looong time ago, back when I was dirt-fucking-poor, I had one thing to eat all day. A potato, for lunch. I'd stick it in the microwave, and melt my pat of butter, load it up with salt and pepper and chow the hell down.

Well, one day, my pat of butter is gone. GONE. Ever tried to eat a baked potato without butter? It's revolting. And this was the ONLY thing I'd be eating---for the whole day.

I'm sure my coworkers thought I was overreacting when I got all pissy and bitter. But being hungry sucks, and when you're counting on food to be there, and it isn't, and there's nothing you can do about it---it just sucks.

Heh, now I'm having flashes of Ross on Friends. "My *sandwich????"

Hopefully it's a joke, but I'm feeling all thankful now that my office has a mini fridge that I only share with one other person.

Ok it's gotta be a joke, because 2 *day* old tuna is bad news. (I love tuna, but I'm a same day kind of girl :)

...Or maybe the person noticed the sandwich was missing right away but forgot to leave the note until a week or two later?

Oh, man, I hate when people steal my ketchup. Not even kidding.

A co-worker keeps a tub of cream cheese in the fridge. She's licked the top, but won't put a note to that effect. Heh.
