I found out how the thief got in. They built a door behind where out Site To Store desk is located that is supposed to only be able to be opened from the inside.... however, the construction crew had rigged it with a wire so it could be opened from the outside as well, which gave them another entryway into the store since the outside walls are now all up. Naturally, the wire was removed in the aftermath yesterday morning... however, it will be interesting to see whether the construction guys don't rig it back up when they come back to work Tuesday morning. They effectively have diplomatic immunity with regards to our store's management, so it's not like anyone's going to tell them they can't. It also has buoyed the rumor amongst us that the thief was one of the construction guys (Or knows one of them). Hell, they steal our equipment in broad daylight, so why not swipe a TV under the cover of night as well...?

Also, the 61 star flag in the break room apparently is not out on the salesfloor anywhere, so I have no idea where it came from. I'd have bought one if we had it, and would have gladly sent one to SSS as well..... alas!

Just steal the one in the break room and blame the construction guys! At least take a picture of it...

I see you got promoted from Studmuffin to Dumbass. Congratulations!

I'd love to take a picture for it, but not sure it's worth risking bringing in my camera for...

Since I got promoted, may as well give you back your old rank..... :P

Yeah--the construction guys might steal your camera, too. My camera on my phone hasn't worked for two years, and the screen is threatening to join it. It's probably time for a new one, but I love the size and functionality of mine (by that I mean how it operates when it actually works...)so I might just put my card in Steve's old phone that he abandoned for the iPhone since it's the same as mine.

I always kept my old rank--it just wasn't advertised!! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :P

Even if I brought my phone to work (Which, as no surprise to anyone who knows me, I don't), I wouldn't know how to get the picture off of there and on my computer. It's a 5 year old POS, and if it ever had a cord that allowed you to do that, it's been long gone....

And yes I agree, you have always been rank.... :P :P :P :P

11 wasn't even one of the choices on my question.

Today's Straight Dope column is a reprint, dealing with how to arrange stars on the flag if a 51st state is added.
