Where I work they clean out the fridge/freezer every night, but you'd probably know if your company had a policy like that.

(Lean Cuisine man? It's like eating air.)

srsly dude, it takes 2-3 to get full.

It's trash though. Healthy Choice actually TASTES good and is relatively healthy.

Just send out an e-mail to the department saying that the lean cusine you left in the frig had rat droppings in them because you had a rat problem at home.

I shared this advice with another poster who was complaining that a coworker had borrowed $7.00 from him and not paid him back, but I think it will help in your situation as well (I know it's helped me out of a number of jams).

When disposing of a human corpse, cutting the body into six pieces (head, arms, legs and torso) will make it more easily transportable and compact. Make sure the cutting of the body is done over large sheets of plastic to reduce the risk of blood staining anything in your house. While it is generally adviseable to bury the remains in plastic bags, if there is a wetlands or swamp that you can take the remains to, simply scattering them about will attract predators who will consume the remains much more quickly than simply leaving them to decompose. Wetlands are not typically frequented by people, so this can be an easy way to dispose of bodies without worrying about the remains being discovered.
Cheers.

Alternatively you can feed him to the pigs.

Be glad this thief didn't do the same as the mouse who ate those Gobstoppers and leave a big steaming shit behind in the freezer.

Wait till the offender brings something to work and puts it in the fridge. Immediately take it out, eat it in front of them and comment loudly on how great it tastes, then put it back in half-eaten. I think he'll get the point.

Obviously you must find and kill the thief to prevent them from committing future atrocities.

I have a hybrid man card

A hybrid man card? I think that the cast of Queer Eye have those as well... Except for Ted Allen, anyway. That guy has enough taste to avoid eating something as bad as a Lean Quisine. Ick.

I hate to admit this, but I used to work in a downtown office high-rise, and well, the area was ntorious for business professionals getting mugged/jacked after like 9pm at night.

Sometimes I would think I was leaving around 6pm and by the time I knew it I had been asked to work til 11pm or later.

So starving and not wanting to get mugged - I would scour the freezers on the various floors and find myself a microwavable entree.

I'd gladly give the person back their $2 if I knew who they were........

Put money in an envelope in freezer labeled "Thanks for the frozen xyz".

I realize this is a joke, but...

Did you think it found its way into the freezer on its own? lol

Pee in his cubicle. :D

It's fun to think about putting stuff in your food to catch the thief, but what if a co-worker tampers with your food and then YOU eat it? :Q

We have a sign on the fridge where I work saying that taking someone elses food will get you fired. Someone added that if caught in the act, you will be shot. I think its a good policy.

I put some tape on mine with my name and date on it. I try not to leave a whole lot in the fridge here...I keep my lunch in my lunch box.

Buy a Lean Cruisne with some kind of sauce (like sweet and sour)
let thaw and carefully lift film and add some syrup of ipec.
replace film, re-freeze and place bait in work freezer and sit
back and watch the fun!!

Somebody still at my work will put boogers on the wall in the urinal. I was at a bank and one of the men would consistently put TOILET PAPER in the fvcking urinal. I don't get it, either. It just amplifies the fact to me and the reality that I live in a world of asshats and sometimes they blend in well. Always gotta be on the lookout.
