Yeah - I always lock my bags. Have a feeling if I didn't something worse could have happened?

It was some worthless sap trying to find anything to steal. Your note will mean nothing to him, now or in the future. Worthless **** ants don't care what notes say.

If I was going to leave a bike at work all day long, I would lock the boxes and use a half cover.

Security with a horn will make him stop looking, I would think.
I hope you catch him in the act next time though................................

+1 on a bike cover with cable to secure it. That helps protect the bike from inclement weather as well as @$$clowns that feel they must get nosy...

"the rubber boot on my antenna pulled up around the antenna ball, and fingerprints
all over it! This all happened during work hours."

Some how or another this sounds like some body from work is yanking your chain
who have you pissed off lately? If this is the case your note will tell them that
they got the best of you and they will keep it up, There are A-holes in every work
place that I have found good luck

Take the note off and put a very mean, but harmless, snake or tarantula in the glove box!

i understand your being pissed....but if that is your employers parking lot, it would just take one whiney butt employee to claim feeling threatened, and your out of a job....

Great movie! Just something about revenge.....

But - you're all right - KILL is a strong word.

Maybe - "bust your kneecaps"?, "burn you with acid"?, "ride over you"?....

Just kiddin everyone. I think I'm over it now.....
Sign down.
Just checking in on her every once in a while. She's all locked down and I'm thinking about a cover.
Thanks for the calming words!
