Hello there,
We have a slight problem with office theft. Before I start any speeches I'd like to try something else: To prepare some drawer knobs etc. with this paint that starts to ink your hands red after a while.
Anybody ever used that stuff?
Regards
PB.

I had quite a time getting it out of a nice top when I climbed a lamp post in Paris last year...

I would try speeches first, if it is just small stuff. It depends on what is being stolen...paper clips and a few sheets of paper, or large sums of cash.
What are you going to do when your best employee turns up with ink stained hands, arrest them, or embarrass them?

Are there Macs in the area? If so, set them up as security cameras (assuming you have a web cam hooked up). An app called Pariscope will do the job for ya pretty nicely.

Ronny Cox is too old to be much of a deterrent anymore.

Well, it's something in between papers and huge sums of cash. Stuff like cables, a router, two gps mice... also someone has a habit to frisk other peoples' office cabinets for files etc.
I don't care who it turns out to be, first I want an identification then we can think of measures.

I think your best bet would be to hide a midget under the desk with a paintball gun and a disposable camera.

Farmers mix a harmless, colorless chemical in with their liquid fertilizer to deter theft. Meth heads steal the fertilizer from them to make their meth. The chemical additive, where it touches the skin in the finalized meth product, turns the skin a kind of pink wherever its inhaled or touched.

Gasoline as well. The gasoline on farms is often subsidized by the government and can only be used by farm equipment. It's kinda red color and it'll stain your gas tank and other things if you try to use it in a normal car.
