They were all but guaranteed to be thrown out and wasted, so after asking if anyone else wanted any, I took them home in a ziploc for me and my friend.

Apparently didn’t sit right with someone, and walked in today and got scolded/job threatened over it. Over some leftover BBQ chips.

Lack of solidarity and brown nosing management man…sucks. Just feel disappointed and let down.

Edit: Thank you all for the support and sympathetic comments, they helped me feel better than I did. I was pretty shaken at the time, but have calmed significantly since (albeit quite tired mentally and emotionally). I’m going to try and move on from the experience, though I may have an idea who the culprit is due to circumstantial evidence. I’ll just be more cautious around them and the majority of my coworkers from now on. Wish I didn’t have to be, but thems the breaks. Thx again <3

Just take solace in the fact that you will never be anywhere near as much of a monumental loser as this clown who went and reported you to management over potato chips

And that management will throw them under the bus at the first opportunity.

Imagine how much of a bootlicker you would have to be to report someone for STEALING TRASH.

Not even “my garbage” but rather “The hardworking job-creating boss’s garbage”

One thing I’ve learned working my first job: Don’t tell anyone anything, because they’ll tell someone else eventually.

No friends at work. No trust — just business.

You can even like your coworkers, but do not mistake a coworker for a real friend.

When one of you quits etc then you can start a real friendship, which is nice. But otherwise keep it cordial and don’t get too personal. And don’t gossip for the love of god.

I can’t even imagine what the fuck leads people to do shit like that. I’ve dealt with some serious rat coworkers and it never makes any sense to me. Like something that comes up at some point with almost every coworker I’ve been alone/unsupervised with has been some variation of “hey if i see you do some shit you’re not supposed to do, no i didnt”

but some of these fuckers either snitch over dumb shit or straight up make up bullshit to snitch about. i dont get it. no benefit. crabs in a bucket.
