If someone else brought them in, I'd never take more than 1 even if there were some left in the afternoon. If I had brought them I'd take one in the morning and grab a second if there were leftovers after lunch.

There were people who took 1/2 a donut. So, now the box has mangled donuts.

Ugh, I hate that shit. Makes it look like mice got into the box or something.

The other day I brought in a dozen bagels from the local bagel shop, fresh out of the oven, these things were fucking spectacular. Real traditional NY style bagles. I also grabbed a dozen doughnuts from Dunkin Donuts, which I consider to be the worst doughnuts you can buy (I don't live near a Krispy Kreme or a small bakery).

The doughnuts were all eaten, less than half the bagels were. o_O

The bacon donut rules them all.

I always found local donut shops to be far better than Krispy Kreme, but I wouldn't turn either down pretty much ever.

More than one fully realizing there isnt enough for all. I would then go "hurr durr sory i didnt realize!" if questioned about it. :cool:

Donuts are my weakness, its your fault for bringing them near me.

I work in a large office. There's no way I'm bringing enough for everyone. I offer them to others that show up early. First come, first serve.

Agreed but come on when you work with 30 people and bring 24 doughnuts that is stupid unless you know for a fact there are people who don't want them or out of work.

If I notice anyone refusing to eat the public food, I go find their lunch in the fridge and spit in it.

I wish I could. Sigh, being a former fatty sucks. :(

0, but not because I don't like donuts.

If I'm the first one, I'd take one. If I noticed someone else had already taken one, I'd take none because of filthy human hands reasons.

Whoever brought them in should have brought enough for everyone to have at least one, total fail to short the office, he/she would have been better off bringing in none.

People need to bring good stuff instead of donuts. Deviled eggs would be good.

Grab one. Come back an hour later and grab another if there are any good ones left.

Out of those 30 people, only half of them will probably want a donut.

I take one as quickly as possible. Even if I don't want or like what is being offered. If there isn't enough, I certainly don't want to be one of the "have nots".

Most likely I would not take one. Replace with bagels and I'd take 1 and then if some are still left about 3 hours later I'd take another.
