Work in retail. The amount of cameras is downright dizzying. Sometimes more cameras than people.
I've worked with people in asset protection in retail. You would be surprised how many of the cameras are fake, or are there for show. Only entrances, exits, and highly important areas are usually covered.
I got a write-up for sitting on an SCO machine for all of 2 minutes when it was a ghost town in the store. Got called into the manager's office and they showed me the footage.
It was surreal. Creepy as fuck. A reminder: we're watching you.
Sometimes I stand around and look at the cameras, point at them even. I'm watching, too.
