    I don’t get how the people here are offended by this. Entitlement? It’s so fun to bring something in to just to find out it’s gone before you even opened it. Even with a god damn name label. If I bought a carton of milk, I wouldn’t mind sharing some, but not the entire thing for one person to make porridge from. At that point you cunts can just buy your own shit.

      i don’t understand how companies don’t just… provide milk tbh… milk, cheap coffee and tea… it’s such an incredibly cheap way to make people feel slightly less like garbage

        I did an internship in an office where the company was keeping the fridge and cupboard in the rest area filled with snacks, drinks, ice cream, frozen pizza and premade meals for people who wanted to take lunch there.

      I’m offended because this is indicative of a much larger problem(distrust amongst coworkers) and I don’t think people should be so satisfied with this band-aid solution.

      This feels like a microcosm of society as a whole right now. 3 individuals taking individual action that won’t solve the root problem.

      And I can easily imagine the boss(or anyone with actual authority) having their own personal fridge and just ignoring the situation entirely no matter how often it’s brought up.

      You can feel fully justified in doing something and still hate having to do it.

        The scope of the problem is much much larger: the entire fucking culture IMO, assuming you are in the USA because I am and it sure sounds like you’re talking about this place.

        I think it goes beyond distrust though. It is a lack of respect for human dignity (which leads to lack of respect for oneself) and for just being decent to one another so we can all enjoy our time on Earth a little bit more.

        I have made a couple trips to Sweden of all places, and it’s wild seeing things like real glasses and silverware being available for any schmuck to use in a restaurant/airport/workplace. And then people put them in the dishwasher or return them to the kitchen when done! Little things like that seem so minor until you think about the deep seated issues it is revealing.

      Yeah, can you believe how some people are so entitled they *check notes* expect to be able to use the food they bought
