The manager here does this taking up almost all the space in the freezer, yet she buys lunch everyday...so inconsiderate.
I was expecting something way worse than a open can of soda. I don't really have any issue with that other than it could spill if someone goes to grab something and bumps it by mistake.
I work with over 200 employees. We have a huge community fridge and when I say huge I mean it. It's supposed to get cleaned once a week but it really happens more like once a month. When they do clean it they do a half *** job, like they'll toss all the lunches but not anything that's in a box(like if someone one brings a box of frozen food) or any of the condiments. Sometimes they will clear out the lunches but not clean up the bottom of the fridge which will be nasty from things that were spilled inside of it. We have some community condiments left over from when we have employee lunches. One girl was eating a lot of salads and was using a spray salad dressing that was one of the community items, someone commented on how they wouldn't use any of the condiments because they are so old. She never bothered to look at the expiration date it was 2 going on 3 years past the expiration date! Lunches regularly get stolen it's very annoying, we even asked management to put cameras in the break room so we can find out who's doing it but they wont. I used to have my lunch stolen about once a week. However now that I'm eating healthy my lunch is no longer stolen so it's a unexpected fringe benefit of eating right lol.

I'm worried about standing out too much if I start bringing a lunch box and just leave it at my desk.
I usually bring food, tea or a soda, a "dessert", and a snack. I pile these things neatly into a corner of the fridge and usually keep everything in a paper bag. More than once someone has taken either my soda, dessert, or snack! Would it be too obvious if I brought an insulated lunchbox and left it under my desk?
I'm betting whoever this lunch thief is is also the person who used up ALL the creamer I brought in within one week!

Yup, tried it today. I'll need to get more of those icee packs because 1 doesn't keep lunch cold until noon!
Another suggestion I got was to use one of those cheapo cash boxes with a key, just take out the change tray. I feel that's overkill though

oh my goodness! There is a fridge locker product. essentially a little crate with a combo lock on the top. Lunch thieves really ARE a problem! That's pretty funny, but sad that we have to resort to a fridge locker!
there's only about 4-6 people in our office at a time. so thankfully we don't have a problem. but best believe if someone was stealing my food i WOULD find them :devil:
although i think a couple years ago i had some bags of cheesesticks in the fridge. i didn't particularly like them so i didn't notice they were dwindling until someone said "oh so and so is eating all your cheesesticks!" and i said i didn't care cause i did like them. then the person who told me left and i found out that more than likely it was HER that was eating them and just trying to get someone else in trouble.

so nope not a problem at all with our fridge! It's empty most of the time!
I don't think it would be obvious/draw attention if you did that. Make sure you get a lunch bag size ice pack to help keep your food cold. For a while I'd kept my lunch in my locker and found out quickly that with out them my lunch was already warm/room temp by the time I got to eat it.
