Even so, It sounds like a whole bunch of bananas is more than a person is expected to take.
(and the furtive glance around appears to confirm that she knew it wasn’t right)
Shoot. I was about to suggest that you start sneaking up behind her and singing, “Ring ring ring ring ring ring ring bananathief!”
That’s how it starts. First it’s produce, then it escalates to flowers on the corporate card, and pretty soon it’s rolls of TP and Post-Its from the supply room, pens disappearing, and someone’s raising a mighty stink over his missing red Swingline.
It’s a good thing your boss caught on when he did and took appropriate action. Lives were saved, I tell you. 
A “communal fruit box” is what we in Canada describe in more politically correct terms as a homosexual orgy. If your office does not have one, you should contact Service Canada at http://www.servicecanada.gc.ca/
Can we stop the whole “banana-thief” hijack and get back to this Pornotube discussion?
I gave up porn for Lent. Can you wait a few weeks?
I think this is due to the bad storm they had in Australia last year. Banana trees destroyed, and sugar cane too.
Modular, podular, in your pocketodular!
Oh, and 49¢ per pound? Dang, that’s cheap. Right now, they’re on sale at Safeway for 79¢ a pound.
If there’s going to be a ‘good-bye’ party, may I suggest a sheet cake with banana filling between the layers?
PS- Was the OP tempted to chase after her to get the bananas back? If so, please listen to this link before you do. warning- sound file
Interesting. I gave up Lent for porn.
Let us know what turns up in her desk, when cleaned out. It’s very funny that you saw the banana snatch and then she gets fired for stealing.
Please tell me more about this “banana snatch.”
The fact that it’s there for everyone to share and she takes 6 of them to put in her handbag, thus depriving everyone else of the fruit. It’s just inappropriate. It’s meant to be consumed at work, and common decency is kind of you just take what you need to give everyone a shot.
And it’s a completely open plan office. I can see where you’re coming from but her actions are a little OTT.
Ice cream, whipped cream, and cherries, by any chance?
Her name is Pamela Anderson.
I may have been a little punchy when I posted that.
“Banana snatch.” Things that sound dirty but, well, probably are.
After Lent.
Not to change the topic from snatches…
In essence, the person was stealing from the other coworkers and was found stealing from the company. While management can look the other way when a coworker steals your lunch, you can bet your bippy they won’t when that same worker steals from the company.
I work with a guy who pocketed tips that were meant to be pooled. He also got nailed for fiddling with the clock during tournaments (the side effect is that the players don’t get what they pay for and he gets to deal more tournaments than other dealers and therefore make more money) He also never gets fills so that the dealer behind him has to, hence, slowing down their game.
In my mind, he’s a sneak, conniving thief and should be tossed off the building. But hey, he isn’t stealing from managment (that they know of, yet) so he’s kosher.
If you will do that sort of shit, you are that sort of person.
Who did you lend your porn to?
