Five Badge locks

In June Jim reported that a new badge lock was added where none had been before in his office building- so to go from outside to his office on the first floor above ground level he has to swipe his employee badge 4 times. At 3 of those places there are also human security guards who either glance at the badge picture or observe that you actually swipe the badge to get in rather than follow someone else.
About a week ago he went to a meeting in another building and found that where there had been 4 badge locks before, there are now 5! So, to go from outside to a meeting room on the first floor above ground level, you need to swipe your badge 5 times! Of course there are also security people at 2 or 3 of those locations as well.
The effect of this is mainly to slow everyone down, This is, perhaps, a guiding principle. It makes everything take longer.
