Our cleaning lady threw away my bagel
Most of the women in our office are doing this 17 day diet (although I'm not following the diet itself...just the challenge). And the big joke today is that I gained two pounds in a week.
Well...I'm also poor and we have bagels at work today. So I figured I could have a bagel and then have my lunch for supper. Our cleaning lady saw me with the bagel, made me feel like a fat ass and then came in my cube while I was gone and threw away my bagel.
I'm not too impressed...and now I feel like sh!t about myself.
Re: Our cleaning lady threw away my bagel
First of all, you are not a fat ass and second the cleaning lady should be shot for touching anything in your cube that wasn't in the trash...Our cleaning lady keeps recycling my water bottle and each week I have to dig it out take it home and wash it...I have a "nalgene" type bottle but I don't like it as much as my 1L Poland spring bottle...
Wait- WTF?! She saw you eating a bagel, came into your cubicle while you weren't there and threw it out? Are you effing kidding me?! I don't care if you weighed 900lbs. (which you most certainly do not!), there is no justification for her coming into your space and throwing out your food. I would be beyond livid, diet challenge or not. Did you say anything to her?
And for the record, if I look even 1/3 as good as you do after giving birth, or really just in general, I would be thrilled- you look awesome and don't let any hosebeast make you feel like sh!t. Imma come over there and kick her square in the lady bits.

Something along these lines...
And if you're fat, then I'm the continent's largest mammal. What a biatch.
I agree! She must have broke some rules and that was your food to eat so you have energy to do your work. I also don't like that she made you feel bad. :-(
I cleaned offices and homes for about 7 years. We always dusted, polished, windexed, etc office workers' desks, phones computer screens, etc and sometimes straightened desks (depending on if they wanted us to).
However, I can safely say that I never would have thrown food away if a customer was there and especially if I saw them eating it earlier!!! That's insane! The only time I would throw food away in an office setting is if it was afterhours and the office staff had gone home and they had left opened food sitting on their desk.
SHe owes you a bagel...and a doughnut to go with it.
Are you in a huge office that you have cleaning people there while you are? Our cleaning lady comes only when no one is at work.
That's ummm really weird. You should make a fort of bagels around your desk in defiance.
