Top of our leadership meeting every week: which of our SF stores were broken into, vandalized, which of our SF employees were harassed, how many windows were broken.

Have never mentioned this publicly, but we have stores all over the country and crime/employee harassment in our San Francisco stores (mostly Hayes Valley but now Chase Center as well) is 10x the rest of our stores combined.

I will use this thread to share major incidents as they happen from now on. Yesterday in Hayes, a man snuck into our backroom in daylight. When an employee went back there to ask him to leave, he went on a rampage, ripping products off shelves and breaking our signage.

Last week at our Chase Center store, at night someone attempted to break-in. They broke the first layer of glass but luckily the window is double paned and he left before he could finish the job.

Here's a video of a recent night break-in at Hayes Valley so you can get a sense for what it looks like.

My team sent me this from Jan 5th in Hayes Valley: Broad daylight theft of a $2200 Devialet speaker while our b8ta tester was engaged with a customer
