My boss ate my yoghurt

Penn

I had a yoghurt in the fridge which I was going to eat this morning. Turns out, when my boss was in on Saturday, he ate it. Just ate it. Went to get it about half an hour ago and it was gone. My boss is away for a few hours, so I checked his bin and there it was. The empty yoghurt pot.

A few months ago, he did the same thing. Ate two of my yoghurts, but that time, he said he thought they were his as he eats the same ones. Fair enough, simple mistake. Could happen to anyone (even if he does have a reputation around the office as a bit of a thief).

This time... there was no mistake. I now eat a different brand of yoghurt (not because of that, but they're healthier). I put them in the same place every time in the fridge. There is usually 4-5 of my yoghurts there. Been doing this for almost 2 months. There was no mistake. He knew it was my yoghurt, and he still ate it.

Since he's out, I was thinking of just placing the empty yoghurt pot right on his desk and saying nothing. See what he says.

What do you think I should do AH? But if your suggestion is "Forget about it", "It's only a yoghurt" etc, I'd rather not hear that. I'm mad as hell about this and need some form of retribution. He must pay for this insolence. I'm ****ing starving, and our wages for the month haven't gone through yet causing me to go into overdraft, but I'm mainly angry about the yoghurt!

Forget about it, its only a Yoghurt etc.














And get the fcuk back to work.

Eat his kids. That'll learn 'im.

A yogurt fills you up?!

You could be really passive aggressive about it and say something with a smile like "I was wondering if you wanted to go halves on a pack of yoghurts, since the wages haven't gone through yet and I know you usually like to share mine."

Worth it just to see his reaction!

All food in my office is thrown out at 5.30 on Friday unless someone takes it home.

Next time:

Buy 1 chocolate yogurt, eat MOST of yogurt,

leave about 2mm for a skin at the top,

Place some poop: your poop/dog poop (your choice) in yogurt pot, cover poop with 2mm skin of chocolate yogurt.

Seal yogurt, place yogurt in fridge,

Wait.

Laugh.








Pack your stuff, you're probably fired

Put your yogurts in a plastic bag, with a post-it with your name on the bag - it will deter him somewhat am sure.

Because no one steals a black mans yoghurt?

Put a note on the fridge asking whom ever took your yogurt to replace it.

human repellent

As stated I wouldn't make a massive deal, I mean 1-2 yoghurts every 2 months considering what he's paying you, seems like a healthy option considering how hard jobs are to come by these days.

what if he took offence, and started to get on your case and in a few months you find yourself down the dole queue, all because of a yoghurt.

If he has a rep, let someone else mention it, and remain safe in your job.

End him.

Damn right they don't, that would be racist!

No it wouldn't. It'd be the same f*cking scenario.

Super glue a yogurt to the fridge?

It's only a yogurt :O try not get so upset by something so minor, something major will happen one day and you'll be fcuked!

Wossack

This yogurt tyrant must be stopped! Today its just yogurts, but tomorrow it could be your milk he just helps himself to! Confront him and demand restitution!


Or not, whatever..

Thinking of something like that. Saying "It's okay, I don't mind. I thought it was quite funny actually" while keeping a completely serious face and staring directly at him without blinking. Possibly adding a twitch of the shoulder at the end

So the employee who is spending their time on Boards.ie wants to take the moral high ground over a yoghurt :rolleyes:

Photograph everything, bring it up at your next evaluation meeting.

Like I said, it's happened before, so it's not the first time he's done own me a yoghurt

starbelgrade

Did he spit or swallow?

chin_grin

Or you could go the other way.

Run at him holding a spoon shouting "YOGHURT". Pin him down, pry his mouth open and keep chanting "I want my yoplait goodness." Over and over and over.

Jaxxy

Just ask him if he ate your yogurt. Or do what I do and declare really loudly, "Yogurt's on you today!"

Though it's usually cakes people in here rob on me. My boss is partial to coffee slices so I usually just buy an extra one.

Just say to him 'are you going to replace my yoghurt'. Why wouldn't you just say it?

Finally...

Call the Gards. Or barge into his office, tie him up and say you're making a citizens arrest.

Or next time he comes near your desk, shoot him and say you were defending your property. After all, he's already stolen your yoghurt and could be after your favourite biro.

Open the lid of the yogurt a bit and put a post it on it saying "This is my yogurt. I spit in it earlier. Are you sure you want it now?"

Because in a small office where we don't even have a radio, that's just not funny enough

Fran1985

go in and say, "hey any sign of those wages you owe us? only i had a yogurt in the fridge and someone ate it. I was saving that for today cos i've no money to buy more food until i get paid"

Gets both things off your chest.

also do up your CV, not getting paid is not a good omen for the company

martic

Go out and buy one of those muller corners, enter the toilet with adult literature, peel back the corner part and put abit of your own natural ingredient into the summer fruit and mix well, re-glue the seal onto the pot and leave in the fridge, sit back and wait for the pleasure of seeing the next empty pot in the bin.

Sounds like you need to go Terry Tate on his yoghurt eating ass

*Just replace cake with yoghurt and you get the general idea

Take 2 of his yogurts next time he has them there

And do this every time he takes 1 of your's

Why does it have to be funny?

I thought you were pissed off he ate it. if so, just tell him to replace it.

A yoghurt for a yoghurt leaves the whole office hungry.

Anyone

Its a perk of the job, knuckle down, work hard, stop browsing boards during the day, and one day, maybe....you will be the yogurt eater.

By any chance OP, do you own a red Swingline stapler?

Look up, that's the reference flying over your head.

Right, fine I'll explain it. It was a play on Gandhis famous quote "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."

Probably a bit too obscure.

I knew that

But it was pointless as no 1 said take 1 for every 1 he takes

Maybe you should have said an eye for 2 eyes

Dress up as a giant yoghurt and go over and sit on his lap, ask would he like to eat you.

I'm not really pissed off about the yoghurt. This is all part of my cunning plan to start a thread on boards and get some amusing responses which may make me laugh.

He did really eat my yoghurt though. I wouldn't lie about something like that.
