Anyone who has worked in a shared office space surely has experienced someone stealing something of theirs, especially when it comes to food and drinks.
For some reason, there are people out there who see an item in the workplace's fridge and think, "Free food!"
Well, TikToker @they_love_lulu_2 was having none of that when it came to her expensive Starbucks-brand non-dairy creamer that her coworkers kept drinking.
At the beginning of the video, she held up an empty non-dairy creamer bottle, stating that she had "just bought this"—and then she got into her revenge plan.
The woman used that empty creamer bottle, poured in an entire bottle of milk of magnesia, and then "just a splash" of magnesium citrate, both of which would cause a person to quickly need to use the restroom.
For flavor, she topped off the creamer bottle with a glass bottle of Starbucks Vanilla Chilled Coffee Drink, and then gave the mixture a good shake.
She then held the bottle up and cheerfully said:
"Fresh creamer! Non-dairy! There you go! Enjoy!"

Others were concerned at the trouble she might be in, however.

In a part 2 video, the TikToker showed the break room at her workplace, which features a wide variety of free stuff—from coffee pods to coffee creamers to sodas.
Then she showed the two fridges in the break room—one of which is a "community" fridge that anyone could use and the other of which is a "private" fridge for people like @they_love_lulu_2 to put their personal coffee creamers and lunch containers.
"Instead of being upset with the people who touch my property...It's insanity. It's the principle. It's the audacity and the entitlement for me."

@they_love_lulu_2 The amount of ppl in my comments who CONDONE STEALING is mind baffling ‼️‼️‼️ #nondairycreamer #part2 #laxativecreamer
She followed up at the end of the video to reveal that, so far, no one had touched the contaminated coffee creamer, though she pointed out it was still early in the day.
Since there hasn't been another update in the past few days, it's hard to tell if someone used the creamer without the TikToker knowing, or if she was reprimanded in some way for the video.
But this is a great reminder to only use things that are publicly available to you, not someone's private property.
Just because someone brings their private things to a shared space like the workplace does not mean that it's suddenly available to everyone.
