The Chocolate Thief

I hate the Chocolate Thief.

Every single day, I come to the office with a box of sweets. I don’t remember how I started this habit but it has been in effect for so long, people actually go bitter (no pun intended) if they don’t get their daily dose of sweets.

Today I actually got fruits for a change and they literally threw fits. I had to buy a big box of GuyLian to shut them up LoL!!!

 The Chocolate Thief
But there is this One Guy that I totally hate. Not that he is a bad person, not that I have anything against him professionally or otherwise. In fact I only know his name, and I know how he looks, and everyone in the office knows I call him That Chocolate Thief.

The box of chocolates, every day, is always next to me on the desk. After lunch, I offer chocolates to everyone and people during the day randomly show up to get their fix. He, on the other hand, actually PREYS silently.

He first hovers around my desk PRETENDING to talk on the phone. He assesses the quality of the chocolate as well as how much time he has to strike before the chocolate box empties.

The imbecile, what he does is, that when I go to pray, he strikes! He literally takes so much chocolate it amounts to like 1/4th of the box! THE GUY IS INSANE!

The other day there was in the box 12 pieces. I ate one and gave away some and there were only 5 left. He took 4!!! I couldn’t believe it!

Eye witnesses told me who he was. They said he swooped in several times, eating chocolate then taking some back to his stupid desk. I went insane! I mean, I have nothing against giving the guy some chocolate, but for him to wait for me to go pray so he can swoop in? What kind of manners do PROJECT MANAGERS have these days!

It happened several times. But not today.

Not with the expensive GuyLian. He took away my 85% cocoa Lindt the other day. But he won’t take my GuyLian sea shells.

No he won’t.

I SAW HIM hover behind me, pretending to talk on the phone. I was actually getting up to go to the toilet, which is when he started his phone call. BUT NO. I didn’t go, I remained! He remained, too, pretending to talk, walking back and forth BEHIND ME!

He then gave up and went back.

The imbecile!

LOL, dang you have rather “unique” colleagues!

But, you must spend quite a lot on chocolates alone each month, NO?
Do you buy in bulk or does your friend own a chocolate shop? :P

I agree with za3tar-you sound like a blogger I know in Amman too.
@za3tar-maybe it’s the same person? they have the same initials

omg-my elder sister will love you forever. She’s a complete chocolate junkie, while one a month is fine for me-ok, maybe two.
There are Belgian chocoltes which look identical (must be the shell shape) to Gyulain, but they have a different name. I love them.
Lindt is divine-pistachio is best. But I don’t like the very dark chocolate

As for colleague, my word-I can’t stand people like this. Someody should catch him & say ‘if you want you can ask’ Or you should loudly say “I don’t know who’s the choc thief.How rude’ Hopefully he’ll get the point. Or you can just confront him.
