I hope Tony's able to get them on all the charges. IT makes me sick to look around all the booths at the shows, and see how much the vendors have to do for security, just because a few people have to resort to thievery.
Tony had me taking tickets, so mroe than likely, I let the guy in.
Not that should have know NOT to, but I still get pissed about it...
Maybe there would be a a way to improve security, and to insure that people leaving are leaving with animals PURCHASED, not stolen.
I'm probably going to be helping Tony set up for the Raleigh show, and organise some things the month prior. MAybe we can figure something out.
What if Every vendor is given stickers for their animals/goods. When sold, one of these stickers is placed on the container hoding the animal, or the pckage of the item.
something highly visible, like a chartruse, or floreascent sticker. Cheap, but clearly visible.
This would require more security at the exits. Right now, Tony has someone watching the exit, stamping hands.
I wonder how feaseble it would be for the person to check items for a sticker, to make sure they were paid for.
Wal mart does the same thing, as do many stores.
I would think something like this would make it more difficult for someone to steal, especially if people taking tickets(as I was) would not allow people to bring duffle bags, or back packs in with them.
Tony usually keeps the number of exits down to one. I think something simple like this could cut down on shrink.
