First house I bought I didn't expect trick or treaters.  Had to give loose change out to some kids.

Next year I decided to send a message and gave warheads out thinking it would put an end to it.  Little bastards told their friends and I got slammed. ??

Fuckin 'a right.  I remember killing my taste buds when camping at Hickory Run when I was a kid.  The camp store sold them for $.05 each, and I had way too many.

You are required to have a candy jar?!

A middle manager decision to demonstrate how useful they are?

And there are those that think WFH is less productive.

You sound like a reasonable person.  That's not tolerated here.  Outrage is the only acceptable response to any of life's minor trivialities.

Are you looking to joke with them back?  If so, I'd do something like the wax bottles or circus peanuts.  Almond Joy seems to be a hated confection for most people.

I keep a quart jar full of cannabis gummies on my desk.

But they're for me.

In that case, chocolate laxative that doesn't say laxative on the wrapper.  Or ghost pepper candy, that would be a good choice.

(assuming you don't have clients coming to your desk)

I think that's the point.  You want your office mates to enjoy their cesspool of bacteria and E. Coli.  You already know most of them don't wash their hands.

Had a candy dish on a desk I inherited (moved into an exec position).  Started with M&Ms.

Went through a 1lb bag in a day.  Watched people take double handfuls.

Screw that, the next day it was full of buttermints.

Took me six months before i had to refill the dish.

I had a jar I put on my desk at my last job and put cinnamon fire Jolly Ranchers in it.  A couple of the warehouse guys would come in and get some and then we switched over to hot cinnamon jawbreakers.  We'd take turns paying for the supply.

I'd also throw in some Butterscotch Rum Life savers in single packs for something different from time to time.

I have 4 different jars that I put out, but I moved them out of my office and into the main work area.

Jolly Ranchers
Starburst
Atomic Fireballs
Tootsie Rolls

I will alternate Life Saver mints as well.

All individually wrapped, some people are nasty.

How about buying a plastic jar, filling with candy, then glue the lid on.  See how long they will try to remove the lid before giving up.
