Any security cams ? Hard to believe someone working there would risk their job and career to steal a cheap bicycle.

Today I had a nervous breakdown over excel/work bull****, so I said f'it and went for a 28mile bike ride.

That fixed everything...except for still having my **** job that I'm totally over.

Today I'm 100 pages into Dune and decided to look it up online because it appeared to be a massive universe like LOTR. I wish I hadn't. Now I see people praising it to greatness while others frankly state it is shallow and dull. This damages some of the fun.
