    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.

    That's taking the Mickey

    The Googlewhacker referance is to Dave Gorman and not to my opinion of the search engine!

    If I give you advice it is only a view and always always take professional advice before acting!!!

    When searches have been done in past employment the 2 managers would stand in the same spot (the spot was on the way to the canteen/staff toilets) on a random day at a random time and search a number of staff, at first they asked any pockets to be emptied but as the years went on they then wanted to check inside the shoes. Only once i was askedif they could search my car, no idea what they expected to find(only an idiot would keep stuff in the car that had been taken from the employer without paying for it )

    No fancy wheel of fortune set up was used.
