I assume any employee-thief worth his salt will also have access to the in-room safe (as well as a pretty quick in-and-out fast routine).
So my laptop and other electronics that I can't take with me go into the bath tub with the shower curtain pulled closed. Seriously, who would look in the tub for valuables?
(I suppose any thief that reads FT, now).
Here's hoping there are never any leaky faucets/shower heads.

Sorry, I think your chances of having water damage are far higher than the chances of a random employee getting into the safe. It usually requires hotel security and some reasonable period of time to get into those. And how long would it take for a sneak thief to quickly pull back the shower curtain? LOL
