Dude you stole her food....and here you are complaining...

-_-

Even if we set that matter aside, they fired me for supposedly *continuing* to steal stuff, which i can honestly say did not happen. Most i ever did was borrow staple-removers when someone wasn't around.

And the food was on an inconsequential level. Unless she had an eidetic memory, she would not have noticed it missing. What, i imagine, really bothered her, was unplugging the CD player.

I just dont think you should have ever touched anybody elses stuff.

If her shit was all over your desk then just move it over to hers and leave it at that. But actually eating someone elses food, whether once or twice, doesnt actually matter. People in the workplace can be seriously messed up...you really dont wana piss off the wrong people. So keep it simple.

And btw didnt you make threads about how hard it was to find a job after you graduated or something like that? Or posts? I would think you would value your job more than one cracker or staples or whatever.

Thats just my opinion but i also know how nuts other people can be at the workplace and maybe you are justified. Who knows.

No, you're quite right. I underestimated how seriously people take some things. I mean, i know not to take people's stuff, but the definition of "stuff that is mine that you shouldn't touch" versus "general stuff" seems to elude me. Though it was basically "our" desk, she had been moved there temporarily due to recarpeting, and as a new trainee, i had been told "we don't have desks for you, just pick somewhere to sit." We were on different shifts that overlapped (at the time) by 90 minutes, so 90 minutes after i arrived, she left and i would sit at her desk.

I really didn't think i was risking my job doing any of this, especially since i thought the matter was closed after they spoke to me about what happened the first time (the yelling, desk-sharing, and CD player)
