Gah!
We wondered on Wednesday why the heating and cooling in the building seemed to be goofy. Well, it turns out that yesterday afternoon, entirely by chance, a coworker discovered that the large condensers for the cooling system had been vandalized. Probably on Tuesday night, someone with a large heavy cutter like a bolt cutter attacked them and cut away several large chunks of copper pipe.

Presumably this was with the intention of selling the copper for money. But I estimate that what they took probably didn't get them even $10. Of course they won't be caught, and the repairs will very likely run a couple of thousand. I swear our society is deteriorating so fast that we're all going to be sleeping on the ground and picking fleas off one another inside my own lifetime.
