I posted a while back about personal items going missing at work. Not just from my desk, but other people have complained.
A week or so ago, I was helping out in another department and noticed a tote bag that was leaning against the wall. It was a Beatles tote that Borders sold a few months before they closed. I'm not a Beatles fan, but I bought the tote when it was marked down to $1 (yes, a dollar) to keep at work for quick shopping trips. I was busy, so I didn't check right away, but a few days later I looked around my desk and the tote bag was gone.
I mentioned something to the team lead in that department. She said that she was told it was an Ed Hardy bag and who it belonged to. Well, actually, she didn't say Ed Hardy, she said the CW had told her it was designed by a tattoo artist, and I said Ed Hardy. This CW is a sweet girl, and I can't see her taking things, so I thought that maybe I had been mistaken.
But I just saw the bag again today, and it is the Beatles bag, whoever designed it. The CW is, as I said, a sweet girl, but the kind of person who happily watches the Kardashians and probably hasn't read a book all the way through in her life. I just don't see her even being in Borders, much less buying a Beatles bag (I'm not sure she even knows who the Beatles are).
I'm going to go back to her team lead, but this just sucks. I can't prove anything, and it's going to make everyone uncomfortable. I'm working on coming up with a way of asking the CW innocuously about the bag.
Argh.
