Had to use a metal lunch box or the rats would eat your lunch.

Someone was stealing the sweets out of the lunch boxes so one guy laced his sweet with X-Lax.

It was before I worked there. He told me the story. He got pissed this one guy always stole his chocolate.
So he replaced it with X Lax one day. Never again had his chocolate bar stolen.
