Also, I realize that anyone can walk into a Starbucks and employees are not even aware of it, especially when the store is crowded. Best is to keep personal belongings by your side at all times.

Most people are out for themselves. Being New Yorkers, we are stereotyped as having this cynical attitude about everything- including keeping our valuables within sight at all times and not trusting anyone. Although Starbucks could help remind customers to watch their belongings, the responsibility lies with the customer if they wish to keep their belongings.

Crime happens anywhere to anyone, so I think that people should be more aware of their belongings. Starbucks should also post notices reminding them not o leave their belongings unattended and maybe add security guards to help their customers feel safer.

What are they doing in terms of security for its customers? Are there actually any security guards in Starbucks?
