When the boss is not there they seem to adopt a different attendance schedule. But they still want the pay as though they actually were there.I had a jar of Jif Creamy peanut butter and a Vegemite in the fridge. One day I felt like some Vegemite toast. The jar was scraped clean. Same with the Jif. Now, I can promise you I would not put an empty jar back in the fridge. So someone was going to the fridge when I was not there, to enjoy my Jif and Vegemite.And, the Govt water. If you are away the Nt Security will probably fill up a 20-litre jerry whenever they need to, so they don't have to pay for that water. The list of possibilities goes on. They also take for their friends who say 'get me some as well'.Fruit trees. They bring a couple of bags and load up. Some of them will sell your mango crop to get money.Empty chlorine containers. They disappear. They are a big, good quality container and useful to the locals for many things.Lawn mower fuel. We buy 4 litres and only use 3. One left. It disappears. I used to pour it into my HONDA. The gardener makes sure the mower is topped all the way up after he has finished. One time, he and I couldn't start the mower. The tank was bone dry. Someone had taken the fuel from the tank in the mower.There are many chances where they can take something.You need security cameras which I have not done. I am there for 8 weeks then away for 3-5 days. They know if I catch them, they get the Donald.[/QUOTE]By IP cameras when back in DarwinCheap and you can watch by smart phone or laptop from anywhere.Example[url=http://www.jaycar.com.au/CCTV-%26-Surveillance/CCTV-%26-Surveillance-Cameras/IP-Network/c/611B]IP/Network | CCTV & Surveillance Cameras | CCTV & Surveillance | PRODUCTS | Jaycar Electronics[/url]
