Sometimes the worst thing about workplace theft is not the theft, but the suspicion, trust issues and weird assumptions that come out of it. You deduce it could be a workmate, students and ultimately you just really don't know.
Crime always goes a) you made an opportunity b) nobody around c) awareness d) thief takes advantage of a, b, c
I've seen so many false accusations of theft that have cost a lot more then what was stolen in monetary and personal terms. It's never a good thing, but at the end of the day that Ipad will be obsolete in 6 more weeks and the thief really needed it.
