Whenever I am out on the street, abroad or at home, working or on holiday I always spot funny in-secure situations and take a photo if possible. Below are just four stories on the lines of outsourced shredders and there are many more stories on other topics including photos.

Story #1 outsourced on-site shredding into massive chunks
At a place I was working at in London they had 2-3 shredder bins on each floor and they were always locked though at times overflowing which meant you could pinch paper out of them. Every week or two a lorry would come along and a security guard would escort the driver to collect each shredder bin in the building and take it to the lorry in the gated car park. One day I asked facilities how does this work and they gave me the name of the company. It was a big company with ISO 27001, ISO 9001 and two other ISO’s related to environmental standards. Great I thought – not that I fully respect companies which are certified.
