    This co-worker made me very angry four days ago because he opened a box that had my name on it and took four things out.  Granted these items are easily acquired but I did the footwork for them.  Anyway that initially made me mad, the next thing is he had a sorry excuse for doing it.  "Well you took one thing from (other guy)."  Of course not true as those items are still all there.  Next this scumbag didn't even have the intestinal fortitude to say something to my face, and instead wrote it on the white-board at work.  I am sure he will try to be friendly with me again, but I ain't havin that.  I would like some suggestions of what to say. 

    I considered, "You are a worthless, immature, syphillitic son of a wh**e and are not worth the breath this just cost me."

    What do you think.

      This guy sounds like a menace, and I am sure your supervisors would not like to know that there is stealing going on in the workplace.  Do what you think is right, but protect your stuff.  If he would steal personal items, he might not be the best employee.

    I agree, turn him in. I'm sure the company would be happy to know that he's a thief.

    Gee, I was thinking gobs of Crazy Glue on his chair. Or how about painting his initials on the glass of the copy machine in whiteout? How about broadcasting a message either via PC or intercom that his sex therapist is on the line and wants to reschedule his next appointment? I know, I know. Submit a letter of resignation in his name! That'll get him? (...or her.)

    Being nice is not an option here. Be professional, your co-worker made mistake and have to face the consequences of his/her action.

    one of my friendly-coworkers said put nasty garbage in his(offending coworker) garbage can because the jerk went through my garbage one time and found personal info on a memo and gave it to the boss...the guy had flies in his garbage and had the hardest time getting rid of them!

    Here's what I'd do if I was you. I would call him up, especially during lunch break or something. Buy him a drink, then while he's sipping it, i'll tell him, that shit is poisoned. He'll spit it out like a madman. Then you look him straight in the eye and say, next time you fuck with me, it'll be something else.

        He's a theif... If he calls the cops he's a pu**y.  It might even be worth the risk... That is how awesome that idea is.

    Well, now that you all have put in your ideas and tips, thanks

    Misha, I have no idea what you are thinking dude.  I have like a thousand things that I could do and my blood boils to do these things, however I like to hear other peoples ideas.  I am in the Army and I am in Iraq, that is why I carry my weapon with me everywhere I go, fiery.

    Besides being a complete douche bag this guy is in tight with the "boss" and was selected by the other "boss" to do the job he does.  He was chosen mainly because he has more time in than I do, whatever, who cares. 

    So Micha, do I have the guts to do something to this guy.  In short, yes I do.  I could beat the sh*t out of this guy anytime I want to, I could play his childish immature games all F-in day and I could mangle and maim him if I choose to.  I choose to rise above the insanity and be more professional than this guy.  Like it or not, this is what I have to do.  These ideas that I have gotten have made me smile and that is what this was all about.  Dont ever question my intestinal fortitude again.

    First of all, I don't think anyone here wants to hear your misery and make us all feel sorry for you, which will in turn make us sad also.

    Next, doing revenge is not good at all. Which isn't fun also. This will further encourage the anger between you and him, and you two will become more miserable and you will hate each other more.

    So you should turn him in rather than do anything stupid. You are sure to meet quite a few of these bastards in real life. If you let them make you miserable, then you have just fallen into their trap. Welcome to life.

    Oh, and you can cut the foul words out.

    How do you close a topic then mr panda?

    I think I got what I needed.  Aside from that a forum is a fun place to vent a little.  If I made you feel sorry for me then I am very sorry.  That was not my intention.
