In my years of experience, I've seen and worked countless car burglaries. These are just a few of the simple things to remember to keep your vehicles from being damaged and your items stolen. I think most would agree, taking thirty seconds out of your life is MORE than worth the hundreds to thousands of dollars you'll end up paying after. ONE: Don't leave anything in your vehicle worth stealing! Seriously, I know this one speaks for itself, but you wouldn't believe the items I've been told were stolen from vehicles during the night. Don't leave your book of 100 CD's sitting on the floorboard and expect it to be there in the morning. I know that most people think it's a pain to take in all those pesky belongings when they go inside for the night. …show more content…
THREE: No multiple trips to the car! I know that some of you just LOVE to shop. But try not to make several trips to your vehicle to drop stuff off so you can do more shopping! Same rule as before applies here. When they're watching the lot, they're going to SEE you put that big Best Buy bag into your trunk. Then after you leave, they're going to pry open your trunk and take it. Now you're out the item you bought, PLUS a couple grand in car repair. These types of burglaries occur exponentially more often during the holiday season. Simply put, poor folks and crackheads are gonna need Christmas presents too!!! So they'll be extremely happy to take those expensive items off your hands for you. So, if you're going to multiple locations to do your shopping, you'll probably be ok to leave that stuff in the trunk. But if you're doing all your shopping at the mall, I'd recommend the following. If you're tired of carrying all those bags, take them home. If that's too inconvenient for you, then go shopping with a friend. That way, you can split the bag carrying duties. Then you won't have to go back to the car as soon and you can get more done. FOUR: Don't advertise! Most car burglars are familiar to the neighborhoods they
As I was growing up I remember my mom warning me about guys hiding underneath cars and cutting the back of the ankles to steal your car. She told me this so convincingly that I thought it just had to be true. I mean, why would anyone make something up like that. I have since learned that this was meant to scare me, and to help make me more aware of my surroundings. It made such an impression on me that to this day as I walk up to my car I pay attention to what is under it. I even find myself looking in the back seat as I unlock the door. I am not even aware that I do it until I get into my car and lock the doors.

Throughout our lives, we carry and value our own beliefs. As we face different challenges, we may be persuaded into making certain choices. However, no matter how convincing a person may be, in the end we always have the last word. Nobody likes being told what to do but we do like to hear other opinions for a different perspective. The proper way of using rhetoric is through a confident tone that is knowledgeable of their topic. The speaker should have integrity and be selfless in the sense that they are understanding towards their audience.
Specific Purpose: To persuade the audience to strengthen their commitment to participate in National Women’s Law Center and American Association of University Women Organization.
As an employee at a popular retail store, I feel that the holiday shopping outside the home should be stopped. I have noticed that everyone’s attitude changes for the worse and not the better during this season. For example, this past month I saw a neighbor of mine fighting with another woman over a $10 ‘NERF’ football. This football happened to be the last one left. On any other Saturday, one of the two women would give up the football and try to find something else. But during this season all they want to do is rip each others head off for the ball.
The first thing that I wanted to be when I was to become a dog hero.I wanted to spend my life saving every dog out there. But as I grew up and became involved with PAWS I discovered that it was impossible to save every dog out there. I thought of the best way that I can help my dog and other dogs out there from animal abuse or neglect. So how could we possibly save dogs and be their hero? So I am here to tell you about how can you be a dog hero through spaying/neutering. The main point of my speech are the health benefits for your pets, how it prevents animal cruelty, how it gives a chance for other dogs to have a home. Going into my first point spaying your female pets and neutering your
When you get a car stolen you expect it to be a crime. You expect your car to be torn up, trashed, run down, and problems with it, that was not this case though.
Although Jason Lane said most of the thefts are found out later on surveillance cameras retailindustry.com quotes Hayes, president of Loss Prevention Specialists, as saying that “technology is critical to maintaining low loss levels.” In their article he said, “Because shoplifters are largely targeting small, highly desirable merchandise, these retailers have increasingly turned to electronic article surveillance devices to protect their merchandise.”
Since the automobile was first created, more and more safety precautions have been taken to make an automobile ride as safe as possible. I will provide information on how to keep you and your car up to date with some precautions to ensure safety on the road.
Ladies there is one thing that we do all of the time and that is turning our back on our bags in a grocery store. It is so easy for someone to come up and grab a couple of things out your purse while your back is turned. Make sure you be clear of your surroundings. Keeping your bag zipped or locked could make it had for anyone to go in it in a couple of seconds. Most of the time when things like this happen to people, they do not realize that their belongings are gone until they are ready for check out. And by that time the robbers are already gone. Also, you shouldn’t trust anyone to much that they know more about you than you do. You shouldn’t trust every website that ask for personal information such as your social security number and etc. When you are dating I know that you may fall in love, but be cautious in who you trust because the devil was once one of God’s good
In a survey that was conducted by me at work out of 30 coworkers 18 were the victims of some form of identity theft.

In the world we live in today teens and young adults constantly move from trend to trend, if one thing dies out another trend quickly takes its place. One trend that has stayed throughout history is smoking. The first cigarettes were made in 1865 by Washington Duke but didn’t become popular until 1881 that means that smoking has been around for almost 134 years! As the years passed many doctors realized how dangerous smoking was and gave cigarettes and cigars the nickname the “cancer stick”. My quote for smoking is If you would wouldn’t drink a bottle of poison them why smoke a stick of poison. Many people don’t realize that smoking doesn’t just danger their health, it dangers the health of those around them.
It was three days before Christmas, snowing outside and the hustle and bustle of the holidays was in the air. Before leaving work for the holiday's, I remembered I needed to stop at the grocery store to buy some last minute goodies for our guests. With the temperature so cold out, I decided to warm up my car a little before leaving. However, I work in a not so nice part of town where an unattended car might be stolen. So to avoid this, I left the car running but took the door key off the key chain and locked the doors. When I returned to my warm car to leave, I just threw the door key in the middle compartment of the dash, instead of putting it back on the key chain where it belonged.
