In a general sense I've rarely worked anywhere a bit of confidence, high vis and a clipboard doesn't open many doors - in a less dramatic fashion I've done stuff like this as part of my job (in actually very similar setup as portrayed in the clip in terms of business type) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-UljTDys8I

Dealer: Great, can I see the registration documents, manual, etc?
Thief: Eeerrrrrmmm……

Yep. One of the first things we were told is that if you cease to work here then all uniforms and ID should be handed back.
