How pathetic
In the office there appears to be several rival tea-clubs. I've just been caught 'stealing' a drop of milk for my mid-morning cuppa from another clubs milk supplies as ours had run out. I wasn't given the chance to apologise and explain, or even counter-accuse as I know for a fact that they nick our occasionally when they've run out. The woman was so rude in what she said, and the way she said it, I can feel the hairs on the back of my neck standing up! She went straigh down and
told the rest of 'her club', and I heard several exclamations of 'You're Joking' etc.
How pathetic!
P.S:
We have milk delivered at home for about 38p/pint, and I reckon a 'serving' for tea is about 20ml, so that's about 30 servings per pint, approx 1.5p/serving. Bearing in mind tea-club milk comes in 2pt or 4 pt bottles from teh supermarket or corner shop, do you think I ought to off her 3p/2p/1p/nothing?

There are no tea clubs here as the company buys all tea and coffee- it's cheaper than having vending machines.
There is a conflict because we've all been brought together in one shiny new building with one eating area- in my office there was a margerine club. Actually because it was situated over a Netto, people just bought the same marge, and ate whatever was open and then went and bought some more when it had run out. A bit haphazard but it works. Now we get complaints of people using other peoples personal stuff.
PS there is gossip but I can't blog about it right now.
Try Green Tea...you don't need milk! Green tea with lemon is nice too, although it smells of Lemsip!
Or just drink stuff Black! I'm one of 2 black coffee drinkers (hmm the other is my big boss who is also a taurean... ). The rest of the blokes who do use milk have a bit of a rota on who buys the milk. I.e. if you're organised you buy it cheaper in the supermarket and bring in/ or if not you pop out to the spar next door.
