Hassled over free food

So I had worked for this particular company pre-pandemic, and when I was there food in the galley was free for the crew. First day I’m getting retrained/having a refresh and the other deckhand, the captain, and I had a little more than a pack of hotdogs all together and I had three myself. Zero issues. Day two im with another deckhand and the dock manager who’s just below the regular manager. I’m not eating to eat but if I’m hungry I’m grabbing something to snack on which isn’t unusual, and I got two buns ready but there was only a single hotdog so I literally cut it in half and used both so I didnt waste anything. We finish up and I’m sent to another boat and I get a text from the manager asking me to call so I call and he asks me about using the galley…

First day I’m getting retrained/having a refresh and the other deckhand, the captain, and I had a little more than a pack of hotdogs all together and I had three myself. Zero issues.

Day two im with another deckhand and the dock manager who’s just below the regular manager. I’m not eating to eat but if I’m hungry I’m grabbing something to snack on which isn’t unusual, and I got two buns ready but there was only a single hotdog so I literally cut it in half and used both so I didnt waste anything.

We finish up and I’m sent to another boat and I get a text from the manager asking me to call so I call and he asks me about using the galley as my personal pantry and when I told him that yeah I was eating he made a deal about not paying and costing the company money.

I haven’t gone back and am looking for other work but Jesus Christ two days in and all I get are mind games?? No thanks.
