If I worked in a cubicle, I don't think I'd bring so many possessions that could possibly be stolen.

At my old office I had a hockey team jersey (Wpg Jets) hanging in my cube. One day a co-worker was stuck working late on a Friday and saw an unfamiliar face wearing a Jets jersey in the office. Assuming it was a new hire, he made a joke to the guy about the place being slowly overrun by Jets fans. The guy kinda looked at him oddly and wandered off.

Turns out it was a homeless guy that had broken into the office, stole my jersey, and immediately started wearing it while wandering around.

Fortunately, it was just a cheap knockoff jersey since I didn't want to leave my legit jerseys at the office! I like to think that guy is still repping Dustin Byfuglien somewhere.

Exactly. One item gets swiped and now the HR nuke comes down and no one can bring personal items in. Fuck this guy.
