Waiting at the auto repair shop today, a woman came in asking to speak to the manager because she believed the shop had removed the tires from her rental car and replaced them with different rims. The manager was able to appeal to the fact that there were security cameras directly watching the bay to get her to file a police report instead. I talked to my mechanic later, a young black man. He said another customer once accused him of stealing the emblem off his BMW, and the cameras cleared him. Cameras really can protect employees who do a good job.
- pm90 7y agoThis is an interesting take. I think the nuance here is that we're talking about very disparate industries. Blue collar work may benefit from such kind of monitoring, while white collar work may not (maybe it does, I don't have an opinion).
