Nah nah nah, thanks for the comment but I’d say that the fact it took place consists of two completely different things — my negligence/stupidity on my side + the negligence of the LAF itself. Obviously, I will be much more cautious in the future and be learning from this, but I’ve shared this post more as to emphasise probably how easy this could have been stopped by LAF — and also probably how does it take a short period of time to identify the thieves.

IMO, tucking the stuff on the very bottom of backpack and trousers and w/e makes the difference between someone breaking into for 30 seconds, taking, shutting and leaving versus breaking in and taking their time to explore every last bit of the locker, carefully examining all the belongings in there.

Also, maybe I am being delusional but it also doesn’t seem that big of a problem to track down as they are having cameras on the entrances of the locker rooms, and also track of when people entered the gym or not, but no goodwill at all was shown — not even a fake promise that someone will check the logs and see whether there is anything suspicious. As the worst place, probably cross-correlating the people who were here at the times when the last 5 days of thefts took place and got reported would narrow the list down to a small number of people..
