Dear Manager,

I am writing to inform you that I have discovered that one of my coworkers has stolen the 24th chocolate from the advent calendar that is kept in the office.

I know this because I had been looking forward to enjoying that chocolate all day and when I went to open the advent calendar, I noticed that it was missing. I asked around and several other coworkers also noticed that it was missing and no one knew who took it.

I find this behavior to be completely unacceptable and unprofessional. Not only is stealing from a shared office space disrespectful to the rest of the team, it also ruins the holiday spirit that the advent calendar was meant to promote.

I am requesting that action be taken to address this issue and to prevent it from happening again in the future.

Sincerely, [Your Name]

Dear [Your Name],

I am sorry that you are upset about the missing chocolate from the advent calendar. I want to assure you that I did not mean to cause any harm or inconvenience to anyone.

I admit that I took the chocolate, but it was only because I was feeling very hungry at the time and there was no other food available. I did not realize that it would cause such a big problem and I apologize for any distress that I have caused.

Please understand that it was not my intention to steal or to disrespect anyone. I will make sure to replace the chocolate and to be more mindful of my actions in the future.

Sincerely, [Thief's Name]
