On Tuesday I bought some delicious Babybel cheese for a snack at work. Each package comes with six adorably small cheeses. I ate one and then left the rest in the fridge at work for future consumption... Well, the following day I went to enjoy some more of my tasty cheese, and lo and behold, some thieving jerk had eaten 3 of my cheesy treats! I left a post-it on the fridge with this note:Dear cheese thief. YOU STINK! Buy your own food. -M
I bought some more little cheeses today and put them in a container with a note just in case someone breached my not-too-secure system:
Dear cheese thief. Don't you dare steal food from a pregnant lady! -M
I am curious if I'll have any cheese tomorrow! Maybe this person will rub their butt on my keyboard or something to get back at me for, um, not appreciating them stealing from me... Anyway, it reminded me of a new book, Passive Aggressive Notes. Check out the website for some reader-submitted notes, and if you spot any good ones send them in! Here's a snippet from the site:
Good to know that so many people experience the bitter pain of food thievery! And if you see anyone with cheese breath, let me know!

That was a hilarious story of your dilemma well told, it had us in stitches!! I'm glad you still like Baby Bells!
Thanks Mom. So far no more cheese thievery, but we'll see. I suspect it's the office cleaners. Someone stole my sunglasses a year back and also my "WTF" George Bush bumper sticker magnet, which I'll never forgive them for.
My idea would be for you to get a "Nanny Cam" try it out on the cleaners. Leave some really tempting merchandise on your desk like...DVDs of "Hot Rod", then turn on the Nanny Cam and catch the thieves red handed.
