Just had to share...

My coworkers were always trying to sabotage my eating habits. Quite often, there were donuts for everybody in the morning which I would pass on. One guy in particular liked to place a donut on my desk and then check back with me later just to "see if there were any crumbs or powdered sugar on my shirt". I took it good naturedly and it became a joke between us.
I recently switched jobs, and after only a few days on the new job, I received a package from my old office. Inside was a donut!! I packaged it back up and returned it with a note inside stating..."nice try, but there are still no crumbs on my shirt!!"

Here's to all of us keeping the crumbs off of our shirts!!

    I like those crumbs on my shirt; I eat them as part of my afternoon snack.

    That was actually very thoughtful of them to think of you and to go to that trouble. You must have been missed! :smooched:

    Awesome. Way to stay good-natured about it! I hear a lot of people getting really pissy over a light jabs like that in the workplace, especially when it involves dieting and food.

    The four of us can get together and eat them off each other's shirts.

    Am I the only one wondering if that donut was stale by the time it got mailed back, and whether or not it got thrown away? I'd hate to see a good donut go to waste...
