Strange Thing
The strange trend of labeling people’s food in the office was born out of a real, pressing need, and we can’t help but think of Ross Geller and his special Thanksgiving turkey sandwich that was mistakenly eaten by another co-worker and caused him to have a nervous breakdown. Anyone who works at an office and had something similar happen to them can probably relate.
Perhaps it’s time to neglect this food-labeling method, since it doesn’t seem to work too well; people keep eating other people’s food, and it doesn’t seem as if putting on passive-aggressive notes for these food thieves is of any help. Perhaps we’re being too negative, but it seems as if the answer is to stop bringing lunch boxes to work altogether.
