Yeah, we check those at closing time. As well as behind the mattresses, the bathrooms and anywhere else someone might reasonably hide. There are generally people stocking stuff for 3-4 hours after the store closes and from 5 hours before the store opens in the morning.
There’s a small window when the place is completely empty, but it’s only from about midnight to 4am.

How about in the rafters? Can you guys even physically check up there? I’m just asking for a friend.
We don’'t check there, as we can literally look up into the rafters. But we do have the tools to physically check if we need to.
