Woman Asks if She’s Wrong for Refusing to Share Her Food With a Co-Worker

Things can sure get testy in the workplace when it comes to food

Heck, you might’ve even been there yourself before…

And that brings us to today’s story!

Is this woman a jerk for not sharing her food with a co-worker?

Read on to see what happened.

AITA for refusing to share my food with this one specific colleague?

“I (25F) work at a media house. The colleague in question is 29F. Let’s call her Amy.

A few days back, one of our bosses called for McDonald’s for the whole office. Since most of our colleagues are vegetarians, there were relatively lesser non vegetarian options.

Amy decided to take all the chicken nuggets (there were like 3 sets of 9-pieces each) and eat them at her desk. I think she also kept a few in her bag.

Anyway so while I’m passing by, I ask if I can take one. She refuses point blank. Legit screams out “no!” and takes the pack away. Same with a bunch of other colleagues who asked. Then we realised she has taken all of them cuz there were none left in the pantry. It was infuriating to see a grown woman behave this way.

Earlier today, I decided to order in from this nearby Chinese place. There were fewer of us in office day, so I asked everyone except Amy if they wanted anything. We all contributed and ended up ordering a big lunch for ourselves.

Food comes, we sit around a table to eat. Amy notices and comes around, making small talk. As soon as she reaches for a plate and tries to serve, I tell her she can’t have the food as we all ordered it for ourselves. Amy looks at me in disbelief. I shrug. Amy slams the plate back on the table and storms off.

She ate alone later and didn’t say much to anyone the whole day.

My colleagues are split about this. Half of them say she had it coming. The other claim I was a little too harsh to exclude and embarrass her.

AITA?”

And here’s what Reddit users had to say about this.

One reader said she’s NTA at all.
