The same aspect of psychology is why so many borderline illiterate scammers are as successful as they are.
Just be pushy and act like “the official person” and most people won’t bother asking questions.
“Just asking questions!” “do your own research!” it’s bad to look into things now.
I feel walking up, talking on the phone, sounding pissed while flipping through the pages alone would open a lot of doors. Don’t need to be too charismatic when you look like some tiny bullshit away from crimes against humanity.
Except for places with access cards and pin pads. You need to have both hands fully occupied and some sort of a clipped on badge for those.
Then you just wait until somebody enters in.
When the person opens the door you run to them and yell “wait wait wait” while frantically gesturing. After you enter - say quick “thank you” and disappear.
Also works for inside locations if you are carrying a large bag of food or several pizza boxes. I’ve snuck into some concerts with the pizza box method.
I got backstage access at a U2 concert pretending to be delivering potatoes.
Damn, free concert and pizza??? Talk about two in one deal
I mean, they probably still bought the pizza. I don’t think they made it from scratch and then put it in an old pizza box…
No they put on a high vis vest walked into a pizza place, grabbed pizza and was off to next target
I’ve had a surprising amount of success just walking in/past security.

It’s all about projecting confidence that you are the person in control. Don’t even need the right clothes or a clipboard. Some of my favorite scenes from the Beverly Hills Cop movies is when Axel does this kind of thing. Catch people by surprise, flash an ID without showing it, look pissed. “Is that your Porsche outside???”
okay deviant ollam
The most charismatic man I know is my uncle, he worked right near the WTC on 9/11 and even though they closed his bridge home because it was 9/11 he sweet talked his way across.
As someone who has experienced this phenomenon first hand: being white helps.
Keeping a few lightly- to moderately-used/scuffed common hard hat brands in your trunk will go a ways to helping you sell the bit too
Amazon vest works too.
I worked at a pizza delivery shop at the time and just used empty pizza boxes
Pratchett talks about this in “Moving Pictures”. He has many insights, 100% would recommend. GNU sir Terry
You can also use Wisdom for knowledge checks to blend in!
Unless you find an automation expert, who’s been encabulating at an alarming rate for their entire career as PLC snakes and ladder logic engineer.
Add a bald head with a barcode on the back and you don’t even need charisma.
The homing briefcase will forever be one of my favorite if not my absolute favorite bugs. Especially as it was later embraced as a feature.
