Carlos, you can ask the attendant if he is bonded and ask for a
bond certificate... if he/she is not bonded then you can tell them you
want them bonded (maybe tell them for how much) before starting... No
bond no work.  
This will protect you and your property against loss and the costto
the individual is, to the best of my understanding, pretty minimal.
Call a local bonding agency and ask away so you can be armed with
answers when the interviewee starts throwing yes buts back at you.

   "Bonded" generaly means that an insurance company has issued a bond, 
guarenteing that the attendant will not steal anything.  The idea is 
that, since the insurance company would be responsible for any loss or 
damage caused by the person they bond, they would (should anyway) make a 
through background check on that person.  If the attendant cannot be 
bonded, you might want to check an find out why not.
