Business Law - Bailment?

[boyce]

"Frenchy’s Fast Fries (3F) requires that its employees wear uniforms and
protective clothing while on the job. 3F provides a locker room for the
employees to leave their street clothes and personal items while working. A
sign on the back of the locker room door states, “Frenchy’s is not responsible
for the loss of any property in the locker room.” Grant, a 3F employee,
changes his clothes in the locker room before starting work and leaves his
wallet and watch in a pocket of his jacket hanging in his locker. When he
returns after his shift, the wallet and watch are gone. Does Grant’s leaving
personal items in the locker room constitute a bailment? If so, what type of
bailment? If not, what legal relationship is it? Does 3F’s sign exculpate the
company for Grant’s loss? Why or why not?"
