I have visited a few offshore IT establishments and their security has to be seen to be believed. My car was inspected including the underside where the security chap used a pole with a mirror to check for goodness knows what. I doubt he would have recognised anything out of the ordinary. My team were then met by another security bloke who was 5 foot one and weighed about 50 kilos. He sported a baseball cap with a swastika and the work "Security". The symbol is a Hindu good luck charm but my colleagues and I had a little bit of trouble keeping a straight face. We were searched and the camera on our mobiles was spotted. This was resolved (I kid you not) by placing a piece of sticking plaster over the lens and we were then allowed to take our phones on site. The camera lenses on our laptops were ignored.
The following day, we held our phones in our hands above our heads while being searched and walked in minus the sticking plasters.
