Sometimes during a work lunch, or when a colleague is feeling particularly forgetful, money is borrowed.

Now, borrowing from colleagues is a totally different ball game from borrowing from friends.

With friends, there is nothing much stopping you from a quick text threatening asking them to return your hard earned money.

But with colleagues, there is an unwritten code of civility that stops you from being too aggressive, or putting a horse's head on their table.

The exception to the rule

Well, a band of brave workers bucked this trend when their colleague borrowed $2.50 to get an iced Milo.

If this was in any other office, the $2.50 would have been forgotten amidst a tonne of polite nods, and societal norms.

These heroes refused to conform.

As the Iced Milo consumer tweeted.

His computer was the recipient of this brutal act of O$P$.

Perhaps the funniest thing is the fact that the cup of Milo that led to all this looked like it hadn't even been consumed yet.

These guys are efficient.
