TOtally OT: A morality issue to argue about
Brendabythebay
be a good place to throw out this morality question that came up yesterday
for me.
I have a friend across the country who just told me yesterday the following:
This week, she brought her lunch to work (a salad, some dressing, and a
roll) and she put it in the fridge in the employees lunch. That day she
went out for lunch instead, so like the next day she went to get her lunch
and someone had stolen the salad and left the dressing and the roll. she
told her boss what had happened, and it turns out someones been stealing
food from his private office fridge too. He's been guessing it is the
cleaning people. SO my friend is planning to spike a lunch sandwich or
something with Senecal and laxatives and get the thief back in her own wierd
sort of revenge.
I was shocked and said that was a negative karma thing to do and that that
is intentionally poisoning someone. In the big picture of things, sure it
sucks that you're hungry and you are bummed when you discover someone took
the food you brought for your lunch, but hey - its not the end of the world.
Its kind of a small issue to fester about for days and plan to poison
someone over it. Imagine how it feels to be making minimum wages and
struggling to get by, maybe supporting kids, that you go without food so
your kids can eat better and you are so hungry you resort to stealing food
as you work your second job cleaning offices. I mean, its not right, but in
the scheme of things its not a capital crime. Its sad. Its karmically
wrong to stoop to a lower level, intentional bodily harm, than petty theft.
She says karma is bullshit, she told her boss her plans and he's all for it.
She says its not poisoning someone cuz they wont die. I say how do you know
they are not on some prescription or something that would react, and that
its intentionally causing bodily harm if someone dies, its gotta be some
kinda manslaughter charge.
What do you think?
Brenda
Carolynn's Mom!
I'm nervous to be the first one to respond to this as I would bet that
my take on it will be different than most... ;o)
First off, if that first drug you mentioned is Xenical (can find nothing
on senecal, so I'm guessing that this is the drug...) then it would be
completely out of line to do that. This particular drug is to fight obesity
and there are some real side effects involved although I'm sure those come
along with prolonged use...
As for the Laxitives though... I don't see a problem. Sorry, but I'm
looking at this from the point of view of someone who doesn't have a pot to
piss in and often don't have anything to take with me for lunch. I would
NEVER think of taking someone else's lunch. The very idea of stealing from
someone else is repulsive to me. Stealing is wrong and a lesson needs to be
learned here. Aside from setting up hidden cameras to catch the thief at
work, spiking their booty is the next best retalliation.
As far as I know, laxitives are pretty innocuous. The theif will have
the shits for a day, but they will recover and maybe think twice about
stealing food again.
I hope that doesn't lable me a bad person, but I can definately see your
friend's point of view.

started working there. The people would put their lunches in the
fridge, come back at break time, and find half their lunches eaten. I
don't know if he was fired, or if he quit, but I don't think anybody did
anything. I wouldn't spike my food to make someone who was stealing it
sick. I think that's illegal anyways, but the way I see it, if someone
is hungry enough to steal my food, he can have it. Next time I'll just
put it in my locker. I'm almost postive that your friend could be
arrested for knowingly harming someone else. Stealing the food is
wrong, and the person who is doing it should be confronted. But putting
something in her food to harm someone else (who knows, he may have a bad
reaction to whatever it is she's giving him. Then how would she feel?
If he has a bad allergic reaction and dies, she's charged with
manslaughter. Then what?)

from the company fridge. They made what they called a "Dog Mess Sandwich",
which was basically dog food and ground up laxatives made to look like a
manwich. It worked. The culprit was identified, had the runs and squirts for
days, stomach aches....and I never stole food from the fridge again.
My advice: go for it.

is being used is a laxative and the theif gets the runs for a day or so, do
you really think this person is going to say, "I have been stealing from my
coworkers and to get back at me they put exlax in their sandwhich and now I
have the shits"?
I would certainly NEVER consider anything stronger than that however. When
you are looking at chemicals that could actually do some harm to the
individual, then you are crossing a line, but some metamucil in the chowder
I really don't think is a big deal.

But... but... taking medicine if you're not sick cant be good and if someone
had a bad reaction, or say it caused permanent liver damage or colon damage
or something, that is just plain intentionally causing bodily harm as
punishment for petty theft. Punishment seems a little too severe for the
crime to me. I liked someone's idea about the note.

A little laxative won't hurt someone, anything stronger would not be a good
idea.
It is a sad thing when a person does not have enough money to feed their
family, but I would not buy into that excuse--it is a cop out. There is
always someplace someone can go if they fall short in the food department,
many caring people have put together outreach programs. Stealing is NEVER
excusable. JMHO

Big surprise... I think it's wholly inappropriate.
I might find some other way to nail the guy, because I can conceive of too many
ways this could backfire...
A.) The guy stealing the food is sharing it with friends who have no idea he's
stealing... Yet *they* get the punishment for his actions.
B.) Guy gets *really* angry after getting nailed, and starts urinating or
whatever on *your* food in retaliation... but of course, tells you nothing
about it.
C.) Guy has a heart condition or high blood pressure... maybe even a spastic
colon or Crohn's disease... and ends up in the ER.
D.) Guy just happened to have taken some laxative on his own earlier... and
ends up with a larger dose.
E.) Guy has a colostomy or ileostomy stoma (which makes diarrhea *really*
painful... potentially life threatening)
F.) Manager being aware of it leads to a potential lawsuit against the company.
I'd probably nail the guy with a video camera or something, then confront him.

I read all the answers to this before I finally saw the question. I'm with you
Brenda. I think it would be totally immoral to do such a thing.
Also, after having been in commercial property management, I find it is always
the cleaning staff to be accused of theft when in fact they are probably the
last ones to suspect. Remember, their jobs are dependent on their honesty.
And, as someone else mentioned, if someone needs that food so badly as to have
to steal it, I'd be happy to provide it for them.
I'd try this: Put a mouse trap in the bag set to go off if the content's are
disturbed. That way, if someone is taking it during the day, somebody should
hear it spring. Voila! You have your thief. Then that person should be dealt
with as any other thief would be.

Maybe a laxative in and of itself may not be harmfull but consider that the
person may be taking another type of medication that the laxative would
counteract! There are many things to consider here. I think it's as immoral
to do as the person stealing the food. Remember, two wrongs don't make a
right.
Just Bonbon
Carolynn's Mom!
definately have a lot of considering to do about my initial reaction. I
really never considered laxatives to be dangerous until I read some of the
other posts here. My initial reaction was simply based on my own feelings
about theft I suppose...
I like your idea about the mousetrap, except that I would be the one that
would forget it was in the bag and then... *SNAP!* LOL! Owie, owie,owie!
And, I'm not entirely sure that a mousetrap couldn't actually break a
finger.
It seems that most folks here are supportive of a hidden camera. Maybe a
note inside the food that says, "Smile, you're on candid camera"... LOL

I have to respond again. What if a person had peanuts on their salad, cut
into tiny bits mixed in with the dressing and the person didn't know, ate it
and died. You know, because some people can't eat peanut products. It wouldn't
be poisening the food.
Carolynn's Mom!
real difference I think being argued here is intent. (Don't get me wrong, I
still think no matter what the arguements have been - and they have been
very convincing - I would still use the laxative...) but the intent to cause
at least discomfort is definately there when you put laxative in food.
Of course, I'm also of the opinion that if you put peanuts in your salad and
a theif with a peanut allergy eats it and gets very ill, They deserve what
they get. Someone else pointed out that there are many different agencies
out there to help people in need and I agree. There is NEVER a good reason
to steal. Period.

A little note such as, "Go ahead and eat *this* lunch. BUT, here is a
list of phone numbers for you as you obviously can not afford to feed

TrekNoid
You know, given some time to think about it, Cleo, I think you're *on* to the
right approach to this...
I remember someone stealing a Bible from our church once, and my pastor
remarking that if someone needed a Bible bad enough to steal one, then they
needed one more than anyone...
Taking your idea and putting that principle into motion, I think you can solve
this problem one way or the other with a totally non-confrontational
approach...
Get a group of people together and take turns each day *making an extra lunch*
and put the guy's name on it and put it in the fridge.. spread it out where
each person only gets the job once a month...
One of two things will happen... He'll either be very appreciative, and you'll
all feel like you're helping someone out... or he'll get so embarrassed that
he'll stop...
Either way, the lunches stop disappearing... It's *very* important that his
name be on the bag, though... so be sure you've got the right guy...
Something else you could do... Stop by your local $1 store and pick up some
crackers and/or candy bars and leave them on him desk... anonymously... make
sure to leave them at him desk when he's not around to see who's doing it... If
the lunches stop dissappearing, then you've got the right guy... If not, it's
either the wrong guy, or the food's not really the issue.
Incidentally, I'm shocked that the manager has taken no actions on this guy...
By doing nothing (and even inviting retaliation on the guy) he's setting the
company up for a lawsuit...
Icebreaker
for that. Seeing as how we're not in Saudi Arabia, the next best suggestion
is to make a Dog Mess Sandwich> Go get yourself a sesame seed bun, Alpo,
Manwich sauce and mix it all toghther. Garnish the Dog Mess sandwich with a
pickle and chips.
Now, here's the catch: you aren't poisioning anyone. That's YOUR meal. If
they steal it, they get what they deserve.

Oh, now that would be priceless. Especially if you could get it on tape.
I have had my lunch taken a couple of times at work and even though it made me

But what about if the thief is diabetic? The candy bar could make his

spaghetti or soy milk on his desk. It's a healthy alternative for the

Look, we're really missing the big issue here. This person has a job. They
can afford to grocery shop. Most likely it is a male, over 40, too lazy to
cook, doesn't like what his wife makes, or she doesn't cook either. There's
a phone. He can call Dominos.
The bottom line is that whoever started this thread has every right to put

>part is solved.
Ah... okay... guess I missed that part...
I went back and read it again, and as I understand it, the lunch was left
overnight, and then a portion was missing the next day.
I can tell you... *that* would change the offense somewhat around here :)
Third shift people have made no bones about the fact that if you leave
something overnight, it's fair game :)
They don't have the luxury of going out and buying a candy bar or something
(like we do)... They're stuck here and can't leave the building... I've often
brought donuts in when I get called in at night because they never get the
chance to participate with the rest of us.
I do still think, though, that the manager knowingly encouraging an employee to
seek 'street justice' against the offender (whoever it turns out to be) is a
huge lawsuit waiting to happen...
Icebreaker
the refridgerator, by extension of some of the logic i've seen in this
thread, it's the fault of the person for making that pie so darn delicious
that it entrapped the thief. This is stupid! This is a free country! If
someone wants to eat a cow pie sandwich no one can stop them. What's next?
Where will it end? Chitlins? Mountain oysters? Baby seals? All this
political correctness has got to stop.
I don't know who started this thread, but pay no attention to anyone but me.
Now listen, here's what you do: make an Alpo sandwich. Take a huge can of
Alpo and mix it with Manwich sauce and spread it lovingly on a sesame seed
hamburger bun. Garnish with a big pickle, chips and a slice of double
chocolate fudge cake.
See who doesn't come in the next day because of diahrrea.
Look at it this way, you are performing a loving kindness. You are helping
someone cure their kleptomania.

And probably a good case of E-coli along with it. Anybody that couldn't smell
a dog pile sandwich before they bit into it needs to have their nose
investigated.
I will, however, go along with the Alpo sandwich. There's nothing that could
hurt you in there. I'd spice it up with a couple of good shakes of hot sauce
too.

That's for courts... Revenge is punishable by law... You know that if you booby

Are you KIDDING? The last time I opened a can of Alpo, I found a huge hunk of
arterial in that can when I poured it out.

Once my uncle put laxatives in his own food at work because there was a man
who always reached over and took people's food off their plates right in front
of them. Let's just say the man put on a show!

What in the heck is 'arterial?' In this context I mean. (We should probably
be doinging this IM.)
I've never fed my dogs Alpo but I used to feed my dog (in the 60s) Primetime.
Don't know if anyone remembers it but it came in little squares in a cello bag.
I was visiting my mom and left a bag on the kitchen counter. She came home
from work, tore open the bag, popped one in her mouth and said, "Oh, good,
coconut candy!" Boy, was she mad! :o)

I don't know. I just made up the word. ;^) You know, a huge chunk of what
was once an artery. I initially wrote "arterial wall" and then proceeded to
delete "wall" and mistakenly left "arterial."

as the spaghetti eating scene. :-)))
When Bridget my dog was eating canned dog food it made
me sooo sick every time I had to spoon out that congealing
disgusting mess.
Thankfully, she decided she liked Moist and Meaty better. :)

like *my* Bridget? :o)
Her full name is Bridget Killian Brady. We were thinking
of Psycho or Killer or Spike (seriously!) but we decided
with her sweet face she just needed a nice Irish name. ;-)
Of course, now we call her Puppy all the time. My son
calls her Puh-tee.

My dogs eat dry dog food and I have to hold my breath when I pour it into their
dish it smells so bad. I'll gag if I don't. Not to get too gross but to me is
smells the same going in and coming out. (It's Iam's lamb and rice.)

Really? I didn't know that. Maybe I'll try switching to a chicken and rice
food. Thanks.

but we learned our lesson after Thanksgiving two years
ago. NEVER again. :)
We had to tell everyone at Christmas dinner last year to
keep all turkey out of Bridget's reach. You know how people
are. They don't listen to you about your dog. They think they
know better. We told them whoever gave Bridget turkey had
to take her and her butt home with them. it worked. ;-)
