Someone's stealing the sweet stuff I bring in to work for personal consumption.
Chocolate blocks are messily broken off (I break them off by neat squares); packet sweets are suspiciously lower the next day; yesterday, I chopped up a chocolate bar into thirds and ate one: this morning there's only one third left.
My suspicions are on Smarmy Bastard. Mostly because he's one of the few people who wouldn't have a care for my personal space (I don't mind, right?) and who would repeatedly do something like this and think it's perfectly okay.
My alternative is Mister Knows Best (who always talks like I'm too stupid to fix the problem myself), who would probably think it a lark to steal from me.
I have thought about replacing the sweets with my cat's poo. That would be rather fun, I think. At least until they smeared it all over my desk. My boss is pretty indignant that someone's been stealing from me, but working out who's the thief will be the trick.
Now I'm wondering if they're going to nick off with the fundraising chocolates sitting on my desk.

Cat's poo is a good idea - OH HAI! SUCKZ TO U, FEEVING BASTARD! - but as you said, you'd have to live with the consequences. How about injecting your stuff with a powerful laxative instead? Of course, have safe ones for yourself set aside :)
On a much more serious note, I hope you soon find out who's responsible. At the very least, have any signs been put up warning against theft? It may not seem like much, but sometimes it can have a powerful effect - some shits get guilty and stop stealing, while honest folks who are genuinely concerned become more vigilant.

That site looks like an excellent timewaster...
