Someone stole my book!

Lando Griffin

I enjoy reading and left my book Alan Sugars autobiography “What You See Is What You Get” behind the cistern in the toilet at work.
I went in this morning and had a good read, but when I went in a few minutes ago it was gone.
Who in their right mind would steel a book knowing that it belonged to someone else?
Have you ever been the victim of theft at work?

Cookie_Monster

maybe they used it as toilet paper, Alan sugar is not much good for anything else these days

Princess Consuela Bananahammock

WHo in their right mind would read Alan Sugar?

You're right to leave that book in the toilet.

It' sh*t.

Get the fire axe and start chopping desks in half until someone owns up, screaming is really helpful at encouraging a response from a group of people.

Someone did you a favour.

chin_grin

OP they did you a favour.

Protip: Buy better books and don't leave them in the jacks.

We have a policy that personal items are not to be left in the bathrooms.
Maybe it's the same in your place.

Recent enough title, will make a nice Christmas present for somebody!
Times are tough.

Great book! Did you get to the part where Alan Sugar is a cúnt?

He is a hero of mine, he came from nothing and worked his way to the top, something I may try to emulate.

Every time I leave a book in a public toilet I tear out the last page and keep it in my pocket...just in case somebody does steal it.

Rookie mistake OP.

I presume you have actually read the book, or met the man?

Canis Lupus

I had a small towel that I used to stand on after showering downstairs. Someone swiped that the other day.

If you leave a book just lying around somewhere. You're asking to have it stolen/taken from you, tbh. Maybe a cleaner mistook it for a lost item, so he/she took it.

And now "What They Saw Is What They Got".

I'd say the book taught them well.

I have read the book and it's very good..in my opinion of course. Lots of good reviews on Amazon too.

If you haven't read it and are just judging from TV then realy, you can't comment on the OP's choice of books

Anyway OP, go mad in work and issue threats until somebody admits it

How is dossing off work & sitting on the crapper reading books emulating someone who worked their way to the top?

Wow! Tell me more!

Let me guess. Young c*nt grows up to be bigger meaner c*nt by kicking the little guy in the face. Repeatedly.

Now since he's reviewed some of his accounts he needs a little more income so he decides to be a c*nt on telly and point his c*nty finger whilst growling out "you're fired" from his whorish mouth.

That sum it up?

mikemac

Not at all

Maybe read the book

Still won't change the fact that he's a c*nt.

No it is much better than that actually.

Hint of jealously from your remarks perhaps.

Well there are a lot of people you can take a disliking to without having met them and of course many people whose autobiographies you would only read on pain of death. I've never met Piers Morgan but I still think he's a cúnt.

I'm jealous I'm not a c*nt? I could be a c*nt! Anybody could be a c*nt.

Actually that's what he should've renamed his book to.

I highly doubt it but if you're sure...

I've nothing to add, I just wanted to join in.

Thankswhore ^^^^

I'm interested in your views on personal hygiene, seeing as you leave a book in a public toilet.

Lando Griffin

Well Maxwell, I only read up to the point where I have to use toilet paper, so I am 99.9% sure the book does not get contaminated by deadly germs that can cause E-coli and and the flu virus .

This is AH, everyone is a c*nt apparently.

When you poop, traces of fecal matter become airborne, as they also do when you flush. Trufax!

And your alternative is to stay at the bottom? Fair enough.

Indeed they do, it's happening all the time across all species on earth, it's common and standard that you come into contact with this kind of stuff on a daily basis, in some ways it's a good thing.

Bathrooms with a good cleaning schedule would not be much of a worry for most people. Germs aren't nearly as dangerous as domestos would make them out to be.

All personal items?

Kinda defeats the purpose I would have thought.

Capt'n Midnight

Just wait till Micro Men is on BBC 4 again, same sort of stuff.

Who still uses books, what is this the 1800s?




Get an iPad or GTFO.

You should write a letter to baroness sugar or maybe to his side kick the lad with white hair and glasses. You can explain the tragic toilet episode and appeal to his millions of pounds and caring nature - to give you a book. Or at least recount some of his drivel in an e mail maybe, some of the chapters you haven't read yet. Whatever you do, don't mention the fact that he is cvnt. He might take you up wrong.

It looks like you're about half way there then

maxwell smart

Or even worse, someone else has read it on you. It's now been used and discarded by someone else. Dumped in the jacks for somebody else to take? Or in the hope you hadn't missed it?

You should ask if anyone else in the office has read the book at the Christmas party!

Cheap Thrills!

Hang on a minute. That's from the "what was the last thing you stole thread".

Someone found a copy of Alan Sugars book behind a cistern and swiped it.

Johro

You're fired.
