Outrage in the office. A note at the scene of the crime, the fridge:
Further investigation revealed that in fact two victims had had their yoghurt go missing. It seems there is a serial yoghurt thief among us.

Time to install a webcam pointing at the fridge.
Lovely to have a fridge to share, but not nice when people nick your lunch! Love to hear the follow up story of the thief caught red handed
I went to my company’s Los Angeles office a year or so ago and got talking to the company’s security manager. They had a seriel lunch thief in their midst and had secretly installed a CCTV camera.
They were checking the tape everyday to ensure that all those that “took from the fridge” had in fact “deposited in the fridge that morning”
After a few days, they had narrowed their suspicions down to three staff members…
I had to laugh, they were taking it sooooo seriously!
Daniel,
Yeah, someone in our office was repeatedly swiping the Weetbix. We are looking for a cereal offender. (apologies to the Two Ronnies).
Rog.
If theft from the fridge is a problem is a problem, then why not try this:

The large 1KG tubs of yoghurt are the easiest to padock, but you will need two padlocks (one for each end). Pass that on to whoevers yoghurt it is that is being stolen.
All you need is a petty cash tin as a lunchbox … things will cool just fine, but can’t be gotten to … and
it sure sends a message … :)
I had my pizza stolen at work once and was really hungry the rest of the day. The boss apologized–I was hoping he’d buy me a new pizza. No such luck. Next time I bought pizza, I took a bite out of every piece before I put it in the fridge. I also stuck it in a large paper bag, stapled it shut, wrote my name on it and the fact that I had taken a bite out of every piece. Overkill, yes, but my pizza was there when I wanted it. People laughed at me, shook their heads. Darn pizza thieves….
Amy, That didn’t help me when a big carrot cake with cream cheese frosting muffin went missing. I had saved it for the following morning for breakfast. But I had ALSO EATEN a big bite out of it in the afternoon with the munchies hit. Didn’t stop someone from taking it, eating it and dumping the box in the trash! Even with a bite out of it. I found out it was our Department HEAD!!!
PS Daniel, what happened to the photo of the frig???
Nancy
