      There’s no need for it to be inside the freezer to see who’s going into it.

        These people are presumably paid to go into the freezer. If they weren’t going into the freezer that would be a problem. It’s going into the freezer and doing whip-its is the problem.

        I was going to say then that you’d need to prove the person was actually doing whip-its and not their job, but I’m guessing this is America and it’s not actually required to have a reason to euthanise underperforming employees.

          The camera would show the person bringing in the nitrous and equipment. That stuff is bulky enough to be pretty obvious.

            What? My friend do you think that the problem here is they are actually whipping cream? This is what you need to “do” whip-its:

              At a minimum you also need something to open the canister, and IME the small devices they sell for that are pieces of shit that are hard to use and break easily. Anyone who’s seriously into it uses a whipped cream maker. And if they were doing just one or two canisters, the manager wouldn’t have seen any evidence of it.

        Walk in freezers are usually aimed at -18C, but that isn’t the main problem with trying to get a WiFi camera to work behind several inches of insulation.

          That’s fair. Fortunately poe or wired cameras are even cheaper.

          Plus, you don’t super need it inside the freezer, if you’re smart enough to recognize patterns (but I doubt that manager is)

            They might be cheaper, but then you have to either have a cable coming in the door of the freezer, or drill a hole in your $10k freezer’s wall.

            In my country you’d definitely need to have video footage to accuse someone of abusing aerosols at work, but yes in some less civilised places a general pattern might be enough to accuse someone and hope they weren’t just going in there to do their job.
