Don't steal people's lunches
This is hilarious... Someone is "DNA seasoning" their lunch.


__________________________________________
Wow… where to start on this one.

1. Posted in a law firm kitchen. Don’t those people make enough money?

2. Points for clever use of DNA. Bonus points for not making it clear exactly what he would be using as “seasoning”. Not knowing is always scarier.

3. Was this salad homemade or from a chain? I’m guessing it was homemade- because if you’re adding “DNA seasoning” to your lunchtime leftovers while at work, that is gross. And who steals homemade food out of the fridge anyway? You don’t know where that stuff came from, or how good a cook your co-worker is. If you are going to steal, stick to lunchtime leftovers from actual restaurants.

4. Finally, a tip for people with leftovers. Finish your damn food! Leftovers is never an issue with me…

1. We have had big problems with food being stolen here
Once somebody took our afternoon news anchor's entire Easter dinner from the freezer; he'd bought it then put it in the freezer while he was working, forgot to take it home, and it was gone the next day.

This is not a big place, everyone interacts with everyone else regularly. I can't imagine stealing someone's food in any case but how can you look someone in the eye knowing you took their food?

We've had things stolen out of mailboxes too. Money, headphones, things like that. It's ridiculous.

2. Nobody ever stole my lunches after I started putting habeneros in them.

3. Funny story:
When I was working as an intern somewhere in Zurich, I used to buy 'Luxemburgerli' from Sprüngli. http://www.spruengli.ch/Shop/geschenkideen-product.php?art_nr=12787

I just bought a huge pack of them and put them in the shared fridge. When I had a break, I enjoyed some of them with my coffee and cigarette, hearing a whole group of employees coming to the place as well. One said 'There's some Luxemburgerli,' and everyone was cheering. When they saw me, it was *crickets*. A CEO later found a bottle of very expensive Cognac she got from a client in this guy's drawer.

Ahh, the cheap living!

4. What does this cuff look like?
'Cause I'm not a fancy lawyer, but I thought things like that were cusps.
