    Its still assault, even if not sexual.

    For those who don’t understand: there’s a difference between ownership and possession. You can own a car equipped with flamethrowers as anti theft measure, but when you make it trivial to trigger those without intention that matches your response, that would be assault.

    Same applies to coworkers just with allergies, the fact that thats not what stood on the label, etc

    You can’t burn a coworker alive because he mistook your car.

      TBD, we don’t know how the milk product was labeled. If it was in a glass jar labeled “Pamela’s milk, do not drink” would you still consider it assault if someone drank it?

      (I’ve brought nut milk to work for my coffee in glass jars before with the label “my name. date”. Would you consider it assault if someone with an almond allergy drank my white liquid, assuming it was cow milk?)

          The entitlement of some people is mind blowing. You do not have the right to use everything in a community fridge. You ONLY have the right to your stuff. If person A puts something in the fridge that doesn’t mean person B can take it as long as person A did not write something on it.

          I would put my name on my items if needed, but I don’t have the problem of co-workers stealing food/drinks from the fridge. Because they don’t think they are entitled to everything they see.

      Flamethrowers on a car are illegal, breastmilk in somebody’s personal creamer container is not
