Yeah :/ Wish my friend's restaurant (her workplace) did the same. Thieves entered from the ceiling, cut the cords for CCTV beforehand to hide their identities, failed to steal money from the cash register due to its auto-lock system, and for some reason didn't think to take the entire cash register with them. But what did they take? All the employees' tips that hadn't yet been distributed out to them. The thieves were busy on Christmas Eve (or I guess, 12AM Christmas day). The employer suffered no losses; only the employees.

I live in a neighbourhood where transients, drug addicts and those passing through often explore yards and bins for whatever they can obtain that isn't secured down. I had an old vehicle that was broke down and parked in a rather accessible area of the property I rent. I pulled the battery, opened all of the compartments and put a sign in the window that said "broke down, no valuables". I left it locked mostly because I feared finding a dead person in it. No one touched it.
