Empty Candy Dish Sends Young Associate on Downward Spiral

My assistant has a candy dish. She keeps it out in the open so that anyone can get at it, which I suppose is fine SO LONG AS she is there to replace whatever they take so that there is more for me ME! when I need it. But it should be OBVIOUS TO EVERYONE that since she is MY assistant, I get DIBS on the last kit kat after hours. This is simple etiquette! Who are these barbarians??? They all have their own assistants who chose, for whatever selfish reasons, not to provide a candy dish for them. That is NOT MY PROBLEM.

You are back! Should I send you some KitKats?

The trick is to know where your assistant keeps her stash. Mine, for example, buys the huge Sam's-Club sized bags of candy and fills her dish up from that. She keeps the big bag in her bottom filing cabinet drawer and doesn't mind if I go in there in the event of an emergency.

I suggest you lay a territorial claim to your assistant's workspace, though. It starts with people snitching candy and ends with your trying desperately to find her because it's 4:49 and you have something big to get out and she'll be off somewhere helping someone else unstick a paper jam.
