Storage Poachers 

By the way... while I'm slamming places (or people) in the Santa Cruz area I have to mention "Scotts Valley Mini Storage". Whatever you do do NOT store your stuff there. Last week my friend Cristy went to go get a DVD out of her storage, she opens the lock up and notices that it seems a bit rattley. She gets into her 5x10 storage room and notices that half the stuff is missing if not more. All her DVD's, CD's, Mom's Jewelry, Mom's Crystal is GONE! She was in the midst of possibly moving so she had put all her stuff in her storage room. So everything of value she had is now GONE.

To make matters worse the Scotts Valley PD said there had been a few robberies at this place. The management hadn't even bothered to inform the tenants of this. What's even scarier is they picked the lock and put it back where they found it. No forced entry. Plus they seemed to know exactly what to take and what to leave. They'll probably never catch the guys but at least she had rental insurance that covered her storage room. It won't make up for the memorabilia and things she got from her mom though. If I believed in Karma then I would say those guys are going to get theirs! Alas I don't so what I will do is hope they get run over by a Mack truck instead. Jerks!

Hrmph. The Santa Cruz area used to be fulla nice folks! It's not like Scotts Valley is East Oakland or anything sheesh! Anyways, think bad thoughts towards those dang thieves and send happy thoughts towards my friend Cristy. Maybe... just MAYBE the cops can recover some of her stuff. I sure hope so.
