Please don't leave your things, whether big or small,
unattended or out of your sight (especially purses! Don't hang them on the back of your chair; keep them on the floor in front of you). This includes walking away to grab a
napkin, setting your stuff down to save a seat, ducking into the area by
the bathrooms to take a phone call (yes, we all do it). Several folks,
including employees, have had items stolen within a matter of 30 seconds
of turning around. These guys are experts and only by being personally responsible for your items, vigilant
and talking to each other will we be able to stop them.
Most
of you come here enough to recognize a strange person hanging around.
If you see something, report it to anybody behind the counter; they'll
be sure to call the police.
Suspicious behavior to watch out for:
- hats or sunglasses indoors
- large bags or bulky jackets
- pacing/scanning
- people not purchasing/consuming anything
- hanging out by the Remainder section by the bathrooms (perfect spot to scan the entire coffeehouse and Remainder room)
- hanging out by the publications table by the door to parking lot
