Twenty nine baggage handlers for Alitalia were recently arrested in Italy when cameras caught them stealing from passengers’ luggage.

Here’s a video of the thieves in action:

It really creeps me out seeing that. Knowing it happens around the world just makes me even more determined that b*st*rds like that will never get a chance to root around in my things or steal from me!
