Imagine my surprise, when I go to open up for my job this morning, and there's a police car waiting for me. Seems a bunch of laptop boxes were found nearby, and they wanted to know what was going on. I go in, start opening, and find a frickin' gaping hole in the ceiling.
It turns out they had used an axe, and cut a hole to get into the storeroom, and not the sales floor which has security. Then, they proceeded to pry open the steel cage we use for valuable inventory, and take a bunch of stuff from in there. They took almost $10k worth of stuff, five laptops, a bunch of gps units, cell-phones, and digital cameras.
Man was I pissed. And on top of the theft, they used our own garbage bags to haul their loot up through the hole, and one last thing, that really really confuses me: they took our toilet paper, and stuffed the toilet full.
Why? Thats all I have to ask. You've already stolen enough to pay for a week of crack. Why would you need to do something more?
So, we didn't open on time, waiting for the fingerprint guy to finish. We checked the roof, and found four garbage bags full of empty boxes. Plainly, the burglars had ripped what they could out, so they make off on, according to the fine officer of the RCMP, their bikes. We were robbed by teenagers on bikes. That fucking burns. They outsmarted our security, left irreperable damage, did basic vandalism, and avoided the storeroom floor with its heavy security. All done by guys who likely can't even legally drive yet.
Its times like that that remind me of Einstein's priceless quote: "Life is a contest between man and the universe, where man tries to build a better fool-proof system, and the universe builds a better fool. So far, the universe is winning."
