• This is how one young woman felt after her colleague repeatedly ate half or more of the lunches she had meal-prepped and left in the office refrigerator. She had labelled them as her own, and the coworker freely admitted to her that he had helped himself after she expressed confusion that her food seemed to be disappearing.

  She had added to the label on her container, specifying that it was not to be touched. He continued eating and told her not to take it so seriously when she brought it up again. It had got to a point where she was considering storing her food in a cool box on her desk, but she wondered if that would be taking things too far.

• Would I be wrong if I stopped letting my coworker "borrow" my lunch from the office fridge?
