Don't mess with another's food or drink, office etiquette.

[jipped genes]

Got up to check my inbox at work, left my coffee on my desk. came back there were sunflower seeds floating around in it and a co worker laughing like he pulled a great prank. I looked up and called him a ....ing dumbass. He got offended.

Dumped it and got a new cup.

There is an unwritten office law that you do not mess with another person's food or beverage........especially not coffee in the morning.

put tape over the optical thingy on my mouse, funny.

flip the screen on my monitor, not really funny but in bounds.

rubber snake in the drawer, funny.

but do not touch consumables!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what are your office peeves? ever had some bastard steal your lunch out of the breakroom fridge? (that is unforgivable)

I had left over Thai food in there, dude ate it and I found out who. I printed out a "honk if you are gay like me" bumper sticker. cut it out and taped it to his bumper (he is a homophobe)

Re: Don't mess with another's food or drink, office etiquette.

i only worked in an office during my time running an instructor cadre. so my experience is very limited with this topic but we did pull our share of messed up pranks. but like you said no one ever messed with another man's food or drinks ever. those are grounds for a serious ass beating by the entire crew.

i got a funny story for you jipped about coffee. i had a platoon commander that i was his platoon sgt. i tried to reason with this dude for months that he was an idiot and needed to listen and learn. he was new of course and we went on a combat deployment with this ass hat. i knew he most likely would end up getting someone hurt really bad or even killed. so long story short after 3 or 4 close calls my marines took it into their own hands. they would put viagra they got from the parm in town into his coffee. the put pharm grade laxitives into his coffee also. the even went so far as to cut his boot laces so they would pop on him when he tried to walk. they even cut gear straps so his equipment failed.
anyway, so one of our teams got hit and was in contact and called for us to come assist. we captain america decided he wanted to roll out with us. well low and behold he had been laxed earlier in the morning by one of my team leaders. as he was running out to the vehicle he stopped grabbed his stomach and then did an ass holding waldling back to the shitter. haha, that's when you mess with someone's food and drink. i also need to note that i told those guys to knock it off and they could kill him and i didnt want to hear or see any of it going on. that's my disclaimer but i knew what was going on haha

Re: Don't mess with another's food or drink, office etiquette.

when I was a bit younger there may of been a few jokes pulled from or against me.

1. yup the I love boys or rainbow stickers.. simple but effective
2. Crisco under the door handle of the vehicle.. pisses you off trust me.
3. zip ties on the drive shaft.
4. tying and hiding a bunch of caution tape under your back bumper so the ride home has a bunch of streamers.
once a guy jacked up some dudes car and put blocks under it just raising the car an inch or so .. that went over like a turd in the punch bowl.. and well a was around for a few less than port a potty incidents to say the least

these things don't happen much anymore with the way PC shit has become. some was over the top but others deserved it
