      This reminds me of the story I heard several years ago. Three to four young dudes got into the Superbowl for free by doing this. They found a weak spot where VIP would be dropped off privately or something, and just walked into the area. Found a ladder and proceeded to walk right past security to get access to the event, IIRC.

      Edit: Found it

    May I suggest darknet diary podcast? Especially ep.134 about Deviant,, a pentesting group.

    Here’s a extract from the transcript:

    There’s footage, there’s actually footage that Robert shot with his cell phone of he and I in our high-vis just [DRILLING] carving away at this lock and this door. Our point of contact was really trying to give his people a win.

      The 2024 sequel: Swap the clipboard with a tablet with a rugged case and youre allowed to just ignore anyone that does happen to walk up.

      Just keep staring at the screen and tapping. If they persist, look at the screen, then look 50ft away, then the sceen again, then walk to that spot you were looking at. They will give up.

        One time, I had just gotten an EMF meter. And I was curious, so I went, dressed in business casual, to the local Whole Foods, with a clipboard, and my EMF meter. I mapped the whole store, and parking lot. No one, not a soul said anything to me.

    I feel like high charisma makes this disguise less convincing: “Why would someone like this be doing a job like that?”

    Confidence + social ineptitude completes this disguise.

    You don’t need charisma. Actually, charisma might hurt you here, since a lot of maintenance workers don’t interact the same way that office workers do.

        There typically isn’t a confidence stat in video games so I think charisma is the closest it gets

    I used to do construction inspections/babysitting and this is only partially true on construction sites. Usually 2 steps into the zone I was getting workers wondering wtf I was doing and if I’d signed in yet. Every once in a while they wouldn’t care and this was usually smaller sites.

    In the canteen at work, it would be awfully convenient to have a microwave. I’ve considered just buying a cheap one and placing it onto a counter somewhere.

    The thing is, there’s usually no one who knows for sure that something like that shouldn’t be there, so I can’t imagine that anyone would actually get rid of it.

      I bought a little $15 single-serve rice cooker and left it in the staff room where I work. Nobody else has ever touched it or even knows who it belongs to as far as I know. Beats wasting hours doing bulk meal prep on the weekends or getting takeaway. If it ever disappears it was cheap enough that it doesn’t matter.
