put my lunch in a locked puzzle box so Owen stops eating it... genius or unhinged??

so my business partner Owen (34M) has been sneaking bites of my leftovers from the shared mini fridge above the shop for MONTHS, we're talking full pad thai gone, just an empty container staring back at me. asked nicely, group texted him, wrote LEAVE IT in sharpie on the lid... nothing works. so yesterday i put today's lunch inside one of our actual escape room lockboxes with a riddle taped to it. he had to solve a cipher to get to his own sandwich order i left in there as a decoy. took him 40 minutes and he missed a customer walk-in. he's not talking to me and left a sticky note that just says 'this is insane priya' on my door. i think it's hilarious and also deeply deserved after 6 months of theft
