Nobody likes a food thief. Odds are, if you ask someone to try a bite of their food and you’re nice about it, they will give one to you. Most people don’t mind sharing a bit. The problem comes when you do it behind their back. Nobody likes being deceived. This is especially annoying when you are looking forward to eating something all day, especially at work when you don’t have much else to keep you entertained, and then you go to eat it and there’s nothing there. It can throw off your whole day. 

You then might have to spend more money to get more food or adjust your hunger levels for the rest of the day, which nobody wants to do. This all gets even more annoying when it happens day in and day out. This is a more common experience than you might think. Food stealing happens in offices all over the world, right under our noses.
