Its even worse at Microsoft China: they empty fridges after 6 PM or so, and they never stock them very fully. So if you work at night or on the weekend, you are pretty much SOL on anything but hot or luke warm water (its a Chinese thing, I would kill for a water cooler), or taking a 10 minute walk to the nearest convenience store outside the building. Suffice it to say, I never overtime at the office, its just too much of a logistical nightmare if I get thirsty.

But I guess they did have a big theft problem N years ago that justifies this behavior. It wouldn't surprise me at all if this would be a real problem.
