who says it doesn’t pay?

Excerpted (and edited) from an all-staff email this morning:

This week 3 cars have been stolen during the business day in our vicinity. Two belonged to Pacific Science Center staff and were parked in the lot at 2nd and Denny and one belonged to someone from Intiman, parked in the Mercer Garage. When he complained to the police dispatcher that he had to wait at the site until an officer could meet him, he was told “Sir, crime is not convenient.” A playwright, he responded “Can I quote you?”
