Food Theft At Work: Rockford’s Hilarious Revenge Tactics

We all have that coworker.  You know who I'm talking about.  The one who thinks your lunch is their lunch.  They're always waiting to make their move in the breakroom.

It sucks when you pack a lunch, bring it to work, throw it in the fridge for later, and when you're really looking forward to eating it—it's gone.  Nowhere to be found.  Vanished like you never put it in the fridge.  Where did it go?

In someone else's stomach, probably.

While most people would just deal with snack stealin' thieves by confronting their coworkers, asking for a repayment, or labeling your food going forward, Rockford locals don't back down easily.  It might be super petty, but it's kinda brilliant.

The #1 Petty Way Rockford Locals Deal with Office Food Thieves

I would just move my food into a drawer at my desk and take the loss, honestly.  I'm not the kind of person to confront anyone over anything.  It's never that serious.

For other Rockfordians, they're on a whole different level of petty.  The #1 revenge move?  Laxatives.

I don't suggest this, but adding a little surprise in your "decoy" snack might be the funniest way I've heard of getting back at someone for stealing your food.

Leave it in the fridge, wait a couple hours, and the lunch bandit will eventually strike again.  This time, it'll teach them to not touch what's not theirs.  The lesson will hit them in no time—literally.

Petty?  Definitely.  Effective?  Also definitely.

Would I recommend this?  No.

So, next time you're tempted to swipe someone's lunch at work, just remember—this is Rockford.  The revenge might be waiting in that Tupperware.
