We have been having a rash of robberies in the office recently. Software people order doesn’t arrive. Small items left on their desks go missing. This week Ross had a box of muesli nicked.
They may be thieves, but I suppose it’s good to know that they have a balanced diet of whole grains.

Not that I think that anyone would be silly enough to steal my ramblings, but in case you may be thinking about it. . . the very act of my writing this means that I own the copyright. Really. Look it up.
So, please don't plagiarize. It just ain't cool. And what I say just isn't that interesting. Trust me. Most of my friends don't even read this.
That being said, I do subscribe to the T.S. Eliot philosophy of "Immature poets borrow, mature poets steal." There is a difference between Stealing and stealing. . . This is not to say that I am mature. If anything. . . I'm rambling aren't I? That's what I do. I ramble. So, yeah. I'll shut up now.

Could it be the cleaning people?

A few years ago (while in London) I prepared Bananas Foster for a english friend. The day I leave, since I usually stay in a self catering property, instead of throwing it out, I usually give my friends any left over food I have.
Beer/Cokes/coffee/tea,milk/bagels etc.
My friend would take it to work, and put in the little kitchen shared with his team.
I had a bottle of brandy leftover, of which I’d only used 1/4 cup. I couldn’t give that thing away to anyone, but, I’d paid good money for it & didn’t want to just dump it. Finally, (as a joke and to shut me up) my friend decided to take it to work, and put it in the kitchen cabinet. We’d made a mental note how much was left in the bottle.
About a month later I asked..”hey, what ever happened to the bottle of brandy you took to work”?
He laughed, and said that about 2 weeks after I’d left, he was looking in the cabinet for sugar, and noticed there were about three drops left in the bottle. I thought it was pretty funny!
