This Is So Mean….

But I wouldn’t blame someone for doing it.

I don't think I'd ever do that, but have heard some real upsets about people taking other's food. I don't know... maybe I'd bring two meals and see what happens. lol
I often wonder what reasons people have to take food they know isn't theirs....

@SW-User some are lazy and others spending their money for fast food & junk food & then running out of money way before payday to buy groceries. Mismanagement of money. The woman that put Ex-lax in her brownies & put them in her desk drawer had suffered for a year with little money because her daughter had divorced her deadbeat husband & had 2 grandchildren living there so it created a hardship. She told me much later that she made sure her daughter & granddaughters had plenty of food. I remember seeing her eat soda crackers with mayo on them one day at lunch and she told me she liked them like that. It was because she had no money for herself and the groceries at home were getting low. I felt like crying and told her if she had only spoken up I would have brought something to share with her because I had plenty. She never took anything that wasn’t hers out of the refrigerator.

@cherokeepatti Everyone of us has a story to tell... even if we keep it to ourselves.
We just never know what is going on with others.

@SW-User I just wish there was a way to tell when someone is really needing help so we could share with them. It wouldn’t have hurt me one bit to have brought extra food or given her a few groceries.
