Look the person in the face? If you're in any company over a hundred employees, you email IT to ask for your equipment and it appears. There is no face to face.
In small companies like mine, we just have a cabinet. You walk over and take out what you need. We don't worry about people reselling equipment because we don't hire thieves.

It's easy when you have 5 or 10 people, all of whose incentives are aligned, but its much harder when you have many more. My point, though, gets back to a general sense of wastefulness. In my experience, people who are wasteful in one area tend to be wasteful or not particularly rigorous elsewhere.
