Laundry Room Shenanigans
Most of us know what its like living in an apartment. Most of us have enjoyed apartment living at one time in our lives, and some of us still do. So as you know, apartment living means community living. Sharing parking areas, laundry areas, and play areas. In most cases, people keep to themselves, but this isnt always the case. Occasionally theres the neighbor or two who finds the need to be in everybody elses stuff. Thats why Ronny Stuart invested in XCam2 and XRay Vision.
It was mostly little things that made Ronny suspicious. Dings in his truck, articles of clothing missing, little things like that. So he decided that he would set up the security camera to keep an eye on things.
"I installed three cameras," Ronny said. "One I installed just outside my apartment so that I could keep an eye on my new truck, one in the locker room, and one in my living room. And because of XRay Vision I could watch them from work, or anywhere else for that matter."
By putting a camera where he could keep an eye on his truck he learned that his neighbors were parking a little too close, and would occasionally bump into the car. So he solved that little problem by parking more carefully, making sure he left plenty of room on both sides of him.
Down in the laundry room he had a small storage locker, and the locker made the perfect place to put the other wireless camera. From there, he could not only keep an eye on his stuff, but he could also watch his laundry. And when he saw the offending neighbor going through the laundry, he could dash downstairs and make an appearance. That took care of that problem. And when it continued, he simply told his neighbor that he knew what they were up to.
And the third camera he keeps in the apartment so his friends and family can log on to their computers and see what hes up to with their XRay Vision.
Now if only we could help him figure out why all his socks come out of the dryer without mates.
