To Catch a (lunch) Thief...

Asked by PandoraBoxx (18031points) January 19th, 2010

We have a shared lunch area on our floor. Two refrigerators, 120 people on the floor. Add to that, the employees that work on the floor that’s parallel to ours in an adjacent building (people work for the same company) have access to our lunch area. People generally gather/heat their lunch and eat in their cubes or offices.

Things have been disappearing from lunches. Not the whole lunch, but bits and pieces, as well as frozen entrees left in the freezer. One single person is not being singled out, and because of the number of people in different departments with access, it’s impossible to stop it by just sending out a memo.

It’s not that things are being left overnight and they’re being eaten. A lunch is brought in that morning and part of it has disappeared by noon.

What’s your best creative solution to either safeguard a lunch, or catch the thief?
