    I have been a victim of theft so many times its not funny. I could write a book about it. Lets see the one I remember the most and surprised me the most was we were working in a steel plant in ohio and they had one security guard to cover 300 acres and he never left his booth. We used to just leave the keys in the tow motors and roll out at the end of the day. I come in one day no tow motors were we left them so I followed the tracks and low and behold some knuckleheads thought they were going to steal them. The dumb a$$es drove em right into the fence and got them stuck right on the poles. I don't know if they were really trying to steal them or just trash them. They wrecked one of the trannys on the CAT cost about a grand to fix it. Same job only later on I think it was Christmas of 2003 or 02 I can't remember. I came back on the first day after it walk into building two I notice the Gator we use to get around isn't there. I am thinking WTF we took the keys to it. I walk around the corner office window smashed out the other contracting company Tetra Tec had been a victim of theft the whole weekend they cut all there lockers open and stole all there tools that were of value and all there computer equipment. Now I am thinking where did they take it to. I follow the tracks and they cut the fence and had been taking stuff up and down a hill and down the railroad tracks to an empty lot the whole weekend. I don't know how much stuff they lost but I had to be into the thousands and thousands of dollars. They had there own key and stole the gator. Like I said I could write a book.
