Home Security In The (Crazy) Modern World by Eric Power
Since
October, I've been working for a major package delivery company in the residential delivery division. In my eight months on the job, I've made some rather interesting observations. The house is always the last one on a very
long street. It's always the apartment on the third floor (no
elevator, mind you) at the very end of the hall. It's always the
dining room table or an equally heavy item that has to be delivered
to the house atop a steep hill with 35 steps to the summit. The packages that require a signature are never home. MOST dogs are all bark and no
bite; they lighten up once you throw them a Milkbone. Last, but certainly not least, I've noticed that more than a few people are
completely oblivious about their home and personal security.
