..The last year they had it a bunch of work cultura showed up with their family (Aunts,Uncles and cousins) and stayed and ate for about an hour. When they were leaving they started packing up food to take home. Co-workers were still arriving. Some people objected and words were exchanged.
This is completely different.
You never take before the party is over, unless it’s a smaller family thing and you are making a plate for someone at work

I've seen the work frig full of leftovers from sales reps go to waste because some people don't eat leftovers. That's stupid and wasteful. I've taken food home before.

We have a relative that comes to Thanksgiving, xmas, or basically any kind of cookout, and fixes a to-go plate at the same time as her plate to be eaten.. then if theres more left after everybody eats she'll fix as many more as you'll let her. She goes home and puts it all in the freezer, and usually warms it up to serve back to you if you ever go to eat at her house

We definitely have that guy. He’s also the biggest idiot here

I have an uncle (by marriage) who came to the wake for one of my 2nd cousins (on the other side of my family) and cut an uncut cake in the family room, took a piece of that cake and some other food, and loaded up a to-go plate.
Not because of that, but for similar patterns of behavior, he's not invited to family events anymore.

Would they throw it all away otherwise? If so, I have no problem with taking leftivers.

I encourage it. Less food I have to throw away.
Posted on 10/24/19 at 7:28 am to OweO
Hosts generally want that food gone. That being said, the ones that did not being anything tend to strike first

My mom got mad at Thanskgiving one time because people ate almost all of the food and there was none for her to load up to take home. I'm not talking about what she made and brought.

We had a secretary/front desk/switchboard operator, who would get a plate of food, maybe eat one item on it, and take home the rest. She had two kids, and didn't make very much money. She did without, and took whatever free food the rest of us took for granted, home to feed her kids.
This is not quite what you're talking about, but someone in your office may have a similar situation.

Wife (no pics) threw a birthday party (all women) for a friend. When it was over, one of the guests (a local M.D.) boxed up the left-over cake, said thanks, and took it. It was such a WTF moment they all just watched her load it up and walk out.

I don't eat a lot of free food in my office solely for this reason. I usually have brought leftovers for lunch, so I let people who need it more than me eat the free stuff and hopefully take some home to their families as well.
Now my new Korean neighbors had a bunch of people over from our neighborhood, and I let the grandmother load up one of those aluminum trays full of Korean bbq for me to take home when I was leaving early to put the kids down. Not only was it fantastic, but I would have felt rude had I not taken it
