In my work cafeteria this morning, I noticed someone had brought cereal from home in a tupperware container. Instead of buying a small carton of milk from the caf, the person just went to the coffee station and poured themselves a healthy amount from one of the large milk containers designated for coffee.
This is theft. Should I have said something to him?

ReplyDeleteNo. You should do it too. Then everyone will do it. Eventually the cafeteria will take away the milk and make people pay for it. That's the way Australia is. The don't put ketchup on the table. You have to pay for sachets of ketchup, sometimes as much as fifty cents. Starbucks here don't put out the milk jugs either. That guy with the cereal is trying to turn Canada into Australia. Don't let him get away with it.
ReplyDeletePut a stop to it now before you start driving on the left and can't find shirts with sleeves in the summer.
Next time, wait until he's done pouring the milk in his cereal, then grab his bowl of cereal and start pouring into a bowl of your own. When he asks what you're doing, say "I thought we could just take whatever we wanted in here." He'll most likely understand what you mean and admit that what he did was wrong. You'll probably make a great friend that day. Maybe even a lover.
ReplyDelete@Blin. This makes sense, given the fact that the Australian population has descended from criminals thanks to the British government.
ReplyDelete@Clefto. Maybe I'll make a joke next time I see him in a passive aggressive manner. Educate him through comedy. I do this when I need to make a point to my bosses at work, why not this chump too? It's just really sad that I need to go to all that effort in the first place.
