Yes but you can use the same ticket book and its quite easy to put something in the wrong box on them.

Well apart from the fact the CCTV is time coded and used for evidential purposes and can't be edited.

I've absolutely no problem with being filmed while working, in fact a number of my colleagues have body mounted cameras that record what they do.

What I do have a problem with is footage taken from across the street which can all too easily be edited or put out of context and there is no comeback available when it gets uploaded onto Youtube by the token ned who can use a computer rather than just ramraiding them from the local comet.
