You should have stopped your children before it got to the point that someone had to say something to you. I've raised two children of my own and I have to tell you that if one of mine behaved like that when we went out to eat that I would slap them firmly across the rearend and tell them to knock it off or else. I used to get complimented on how well behaved my children were when we went out to public places. I was very proud of that, and still am. It's very aggravating to work hard all week and look forward to a nice quit, relaxing evening out and have to put with bratty children screaming, kicking, running up and down isles or sassing their parents in booth or table next to you. I feel that parents today need to get back to the basics of childrearing as well as many other aspects of their lives. This new philosophy of little or no discipline is creating a future generation of disrespectful brats and juvenile delinquents. My advice to you is to buy the book " Don't Be Afraid To Discipline". It's wonderful and has a lot of good old fashioned advice in it. Good Luck to you and your husband..... Tracy K,

At a job I no longer work at, I had decided to take my lunch with me to work I of course placed it in one of the kitchens. At lunch I went to get it (I also labeled mine with my name on it) and it was gone. But you see I have diabetes and depend on the way I plan my meals and was just lucky that I had brought some money. If the person was that hungry just ask I would have gave money or the sandwich but to steal food.. Some people just amaze me with the way they handle themselves.

She fixed the problem by baking a batch of brownies and adding a laxative to it. Maybe some of you ought to try something like that. Try lacing your sandwich with a thick layer of cayenne, or tabasco sauce in the salad. Of course you will need to pack a second lunch for yourself and hide it. Just don't cause any deaths or do anything illegal. My brother-in-law never had another lunch stolen.

Bring in something that looks yummy and tempting. Of course, it won't taste that way! Make it REALLY awful....tuna fish in some pudding, hot sauce on a sandwich so hot nobody could swallow it....you get the idea. Be sure to label these things as yours. Then maybe they would think twice before touching YOUR lunch! Sound mean? Naaaa! After all, it did have YOUR name on it, not theirs! Tracy, I have a solution to the food being eaten at work!

I used to work at a place that the cleaning lady would eat what ever she wanted of peoples lunches and put them back. Sometimes all of the food would be gone sometimes just parts of a lot of lunches!!!!!! So Nasty!!!! I believe what tracy wrote about people taking your food out of the refrigerator at work.

My Husband is a Corrections Officer and sometimes does double shifts (7 AM - 11 PM) and more than once (A LOT MORE THAN ONCE) his food has been taken. Let me tell you that after working with a bunch of whiney prisoners it is nice to sit down and eat a nice meal !! But NO, some moron thinks it is their given right to take what is NOT theirs!! I cook my Husbands meals and I must admit I do a damn good job. I do it for HIM because I love him not for some jerk who can't stop at micky d's on his (or her) way to work!!! When your food is in your lunch container YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO LABEL IT......It is called stealing!!!! Which is why there are prisons!!!!!! Stealing is against the law.

First of all, what do you think the kitchen at work is for!? You must be one of the individuals that steals everyone's food! I definitely agree with Tracy. I had an experience once, with someone taking my food, and it was labeled, Dawn. One day, my team had a meeting, which included a box lunch. Well, my direct team leader had saved me a lunch. She also wrote me a note " Hey Morgan, if you haven't already had lunch, here's is a lunch for you." So I put the boxed lunch in one of our kitchens, along with the note on top. Well, when I went to go get the lunch at the end of the day, the note was still on the boxed lunch, but the wrap sandwich was gone! Everything else was still there (fruit, salad, cookies), but the sandwich was missing! I thought someone was playing a joke on me, but when nobody confessed, I realized that it was for real. How disgusting is that!? Excuse me Dawn, but you’re annoying. First of all, what do you think the kitchen at work is for!? You must be one of the individuals that steals everyone’s food!

I cannot believe what Tracy wrote about people taking food from the refrigerator at work!!! Other than not putting your food in the refrigerator at work...I can think of only three ideas 1. Label your food clearly 2. Wrap it up so that people cannot get to it easily 3. Maybe...someone is making the food disappear by throwing it away. HOW ANNOYING! No Way!
