Today, while on break from work, I went to the cafeteria and bought cheese cubes. One of my coworkers, who is usually very pleasant, asked to try some and I said yes. She ate all the cheddar cubes in the bowl, which are the only ones I like. I wasted $3 for someone else to eat my food. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to work. All day, all I wanted to eat was my favorite cheese, which was waiting for me at home. I came home and someone had eaten it, then put the empty wrapper back in the fridge. FML
Today, a neighbor came by while I was cooking. She asked for some of my cheese, so I gave her a big slice and told her I only had cheddar. She angrily refused to accept the slice, and made her way to my fridge. She then yelled at me for not having an assortment of cheeses. FML
Today, during lunch, my coworker offered me her food, claiming she was full. I was still quite hungry, so I accepted it. Halfway through eating the sandwiches, my boss walked in and started interrogating people over who took his lunch. I quickly realized I was the one eating it. FML
Today, while working, a woman complained that she didn't ask for sauce on her sandwich. After examining the sandwich, I realized it was just melted cheese. When I told her, she threw the sandwich at me. FML
Today, I stopped at a mini-mart and bought a family-size bag of potato chips, a tub of dip, a box of toaster pastries, and some snack cakes. The guy at the counter said, "Wow, someone's hungry!" I told him it wasn't all for me, paid, and left in a huff. It was all for me. I ate it all by that evening. FML
Today, I brought leftovers to work in a Tupperware container for my lunch. When I opened the container in the break room, it smelled so bad everyone stopped talking. Someone asked if something was spoiled. It wasn’t. It was just my lunch. I ate it anyway, alone. FML
Today, I went and bought lunch for all the people I work with. The only meal the place forgot was mine. FML
Today, a coworker threw my lunch in the trash. They'd just got back from holidays, and I use the same containers they do. My leftovers "looked like something they'd eat", so they thought it was something they'd forgotten before going on holidays. It was leftovers that I'd been spacing out, trying to make last till payday. FML
Today, I got home from work and was immediately greeted by my wife following me around, moaning and complaining endlessly. I got so fed up that I went into the fridge, cut some cheese, and gave it to her, saying, "Some cheese to go with the whine." She broke the plate over my head. It was worth it. FML
Today, I went to a grocery store and tried one of those free samples of a new type of cheese. When I went to throw the toothpick away, I dropped it in a large container of olive oil. Not realizing it was a “special” display, I casually tried to scoop out the toothpick with my hand... only to get shooed away by an employee. FML

Why would you buy a box of cheese cubes when you don't even like most of it?

Why couldn't you have just said "Sure. Leave me the cheddar ones and take as much of the others as you like."

Perhaps they really like the cheddar cubes.

That could have been avoided if you just simply told her which ones you liked?? Your food, your rules.

You should ask her if she can buy you a new bowl sometime, since she ate yours.

but it's only $3, why to be so mean?
DoomedGemini 38
If it's "only 3$" then it should be no issue for her to buy a new one.

Unless she stuffed her cheeks like a chipmunk all at once, you could have stopped her...

What is the big deal here? The person is now a better friend. You shared food with them. It was only three bucks. It will lead to good things.

3$ is a lot of money to the people who don't have a lot of them

The dollar sign goes before the number

But if you don't have much, why are you spending that $3 on cheese you don't like?

I'd rather not be friends with someone that rude and inconsiderate

@#14 maybe that poster is French. The French put the dollar sign after, and use commas instead of decimal points. 3,00$ is correct if you're French.

that kinda makes you sound like a push-over op, it's alright for you to say, -sure have some but leave me the cheddar ones, they're my fav too..- :) don't be afraid to say what you want, people can't read your mind, getting frustrated about people not doing what you want if you didn't tell them (nicely) what it is you want, is only harming yourself, OP..
Brandi_Faith 34
Couldn't agree more. Now there's the possibility of op liking that person less, being rude to her, or lashing out after having bottled up all these feelings for awhile. All of which is unfair to her friend because the friend has no idea she's even done anything wrong. Don't ruin this friendship op because you bottle everything up, never say what you're thinking and/or let people walk on you. People aren't mind readers, you have to tell them what you're thinking. Your friend probably left thinking you guys had a great lunch together.

I don't understand how anyone can see going through and picking out all of one thing without permission to be not rude.

A coworker doesn't automatically equal friend.

If she was just trying some why would she eat so many? That's rude
Brandi_Faith 34
For all we know, there were only 3 or 4 cheddar ones, and a whole bunch of other flavours. I don't think anyone but op is at fault here.
evilplatypus 39
Yeah, $3 probably only buys about 16 cubes, and if there are 3-4 types (cheddar, pepper jack, American, Swiss being a common combo I see in these mini platters) there's only a few of each.
DoomedGemini 38
It doesn't matter how many are there, you ask for what you want to take. Trying out a whole thing isn't the same as I want this specific thing, and taking all of one thing is extremely rude regardless unless you have specific permission to.

don't get bitter over $3
