As I noted before, I'd attempted to thwart thievery in our break rooms at work with a little psy-ops warfare, namely posting closeup pictures of a mean looking eye above the creamer and sweet-n-low, which some lowlife scum has been swiping.
Well, that didn't work. Instead, the lowlife scum stole the posters. Or, possibly it may have been the cleaning crew. I don't know.
This brings me to part two - what else can The Eye achieve?
According to my brief and highly unscientific experiment, it can act as a coworker repellent. After setting up the little tableau below, far fewer darkened my door than had previously. Denizens of the marketing cubicle nearby said that there was a consensus that it was creepy and disturbing. Mission accomplished!
Supposedly, people are less likely to steal when they're feeling watched. Even if they're being watched by eyes printed on a piece of paper. I have no substantiation of this, as even with my mastery of the Google search, I couldn't find the article I'd read.
Nevertheless, being the intrepid experimentalist, I moved forward with my own 'all seeing eye' study, watching for the perpetrators of the massive theft of Sweet-n-Low, sugar and non-dairy creamer from our breakroom.
We shall see if this has any effect, and I will report my findings to you, my esteemed readers.
Update: My steely eye didn't even make it through the night. Clearly some humorless drone (or perhaps the kleptomaniacal parties themselves) removed it, intimidated by its stern gaze. Bastids. Wait until we install a real CoffeeCam. Then they'll be sorry. Muahahahahahahahaha.
