Securing your things

[Texas Aggie]

I don't recall this topic being discussed, except maybe a few hits in various threads, and I'd like to get some ideas on personal item security while we are working.

Luckily, where I work, we may not have the best of dressing facilities and may not always have shower (or hot water) access, but we are *usually* able to dress in a private area. However, I'm not always sure this area is secure, even when locked. I'm not real big on taking in a lot of items, as I usually leave everything in my car. I trust my car's security over any school's. I have to take my car keys (obviously) and when it gets cold, I'm probably wearing a fairly nice leather jacket as I don't own very many jackets! Also, I'd like to be able to take my cell phone in to have if I need it. Each of these things are potentially at risk.

So, I'm interested in hearing any ideas from lockable luggage to small bike-lock type items and anything in between.
