What was I supposed to do? HR won’t help, and I sure as hell won’t put laxatives or ghost peppers in the food as a trap for the thief like some people on the internet proclaim to do since this is a potential felony charge. Besides, I get to eat a warm lunch every day without needing to worry about a thief. Good enough for me…

Happened to me too. Didn’t know who it was. I ended up keeping my lunch in my backpack (thermally insulated container), and no one stole my lunch after that.
