Measures to Prevent Theft at Construction Companies | “Normalcy Bias” and Lost Time

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

I’ve heard that vehicle thefts have been on the rise in Iwakura City, right around where I live, since the end of the year!

Land Cruiser, HiAce, Prius!

There sure are a lot of burglaries around the New Year's holidays.

Take advantage of the long New Year's holiday!

Theft

We also had a visit from the police, who told us to be very careful and to contact them if anything happened.

Perhaps because we usually have ties with the Iwakura Police and the Konan Police Station, we receive all sorts of information.

The cooperation with the police is what gives me the greatest peace of mind, so I rely on them.

 

Sometimes people steal other people’s things, even if it’s just a small thing (though this depends on how both parties perceive it).

Even among friends, copying someone's work is, in a sense, theft.

Intentionally taking company property, for example,

The same applies to failing to return items that are required to be returned when leaving a company. (In cases of intentional misconduct)

 

The key point is that it was intentionalBut still.

Surprisingly, quite a few people say, “This is probably good enough,” but there are many criminal acts involved.

We've had quite a few things stolen that way, too.

Thieves don't hesitate to lie, lol (they usually just steal and run, lol).

Especially impact wrenches—they get stolen when people quit, or people break into the office the night before they’re supposed to return their keys to steal stuff, lol.

 

Normal adults don't say or do things like that.

That's what being an adult is all about.

That said, depending on the person,I'll be fine—just meThat thought crosses my mind. (Including people who say, “This is my right.”)

I just think, “I won’t get into an accident or get caught.”

This is known as the “normalcy bias.”

Have you heard of the normalcy bias? It’s a dangerous mechanism in the brain that makes us believe, “I’ll be fine.”

It's the same with the lottery—I just convince myself, "I'm going to win!" and end up buying more and more tickets, lol.

My brain is completely biased. (I'm sure I'll get the next one right!)

That's why I keep doing it. (The Potential of a Hobby)

What Is Bias?

In the end, they usually end up getting arrested for theft. (It’s just a matter of bias, but the chances of getting arrested are high.)

 

When I hear stories like this about theft, I really feel sorry for the victims!

We've been through the same thing, so I really understand how those people feel.

Since we already have a HiAce and a Prius, we’ll make sure to take plenty of precautions against theft!

 

I want you to think about how it feels to have something stolen!

When something is stolen, it’s as if the owner’s time has also been stolen (taken away).

How long did it take you to earn the money to buy that item?

Things = Money = Time

That means all that time will have been wasted.

This is seriously infuriating!

I won't tolerate such underhanded crimes! I'll keep reporting them!

We'll team up with the police to handle this lol

Please make sure to take adequate precautions against theft!

 

See you later.
