Just get everyone to work naked, that way they are unlikely to be able to steal anything.
I say unlikely because when I worked many years ago for the Disney Store we were always searched on our way out, after one lady was found, I kid you not, with plastic Disney figurines in her knickers.0 -

A friend of mine use to work in 'YOUR' well known store where they did searches all the time on staff and one day as she was getting into the lift to go for her break when she was stopped by a male and female managers they told her that they were doing a pocket search, she told them if they could find any pockets in her clothing they were welcome to do the search, she had no pockets. They told her to carry on for her break...0 -
At my place of work employees are only searched if the employer has reason to believe they are stealing etc. The employer does`nt just randomly search people unless they have cause. Not a very trusting lot are you0

This is the part where a lesbian manager would take advantage and try to find any 'inside' pockets.0 -

I used to work in a whisky bottling plant and one of the women who worked on the miniature bottling line used to smuggle out whisky miniatures concealed in her body.
She was caught because one day when she finished working it was snowing and she slipped and fell on the ground and one of the bottles broke and cut her insides and of course the whisky stung her insides as well.
When she got up in obvious agony, there was blood on the snow so of course she was carted off to the first aid room where the source of the blood was established.
She never came back to her work.0 -

Where they brew Guinness, the employers gave a couple of pints of Guinness to staff every day, it is no wondered that all of them ended up being alcoholics. However, I suppose it was much better than some tat that you get supermarkets flog to staff at a reduced price.0 -

Again, did Guiness get sued when some of them did become alcoholics?The Googlewhacker referance is to Dave Gorman and not to my opinion of the search engine!
