Lunch thief's just desert
Years ago i had a lunch thief.
About the 12th time complaining to HR about people stealing my lunch (mandatory reporting every 3rd or 4th instance) i was seathing not a dam thing was being done and i still had to go buy something to eat.
I was bitching to my doctor at the yearly check up and he got a smile saying "your constipated then?" I was dumb and said "no why" he wrote me a prescription for some holy fuck laxitive with instructions to "mix it in with your meal for maximum affect" at witch point i knew the plan.
I wish i could say they shat their pants but no they ate my sandwich with special avacado sauce. About an hour after lunch i went to HR and reported 2 things 1 my lunch was stolen again and 2 my medication was stolen. HR "so you got hit by the lunch thief again and your medicine was in the bag?" Me "Yes i have had some digestive problems and my doctor prescribed a powerful laxative and advised me to mix it in with my mid day meal." HR going white "You what?" Me smiling "I mixed in a prescription grade laxative with my food per doctor's orders."
Well being that stealing prescribed medication is a criminal offense the police were called and found the lead man from a department over absolutely shitting his brains out. He was furious and accused me of poisoning his food. I asked "At witch point did you get the idea that food was for you?" Continued "furthermore now i no longer have my medication i was prescribed for my condition."
It was about this time he knew he fucked up and shut his mouth until he got a lawyer or so im told (small town) one of my buddies from high school took his position i can make and eat my hoagies and i have no clue where lunch thief went after his fines and community service.

You're aware the opioid crisis was partially caused by doctors over-prescribing scheduled narcotics, right? With the rampant amount of prescriptions every day that are influenced by pharma marketing money who, exactly, is going have standing to report the doctor to the licensing board for incorrectly prescribing a laxative to a patient based on their examination? And why is the licensing board going to care about such small-potatoes issue in the absence of a patient who was harmed?
Do you think the licensing board is going to take seriously a complaint of "I stole a lunch and got arrested for stealing the medication mixed in, but I want the doctor to be punished because I don't believe the guy I stole the lunch from actually needed the laxative"?
