Last Night Just....Uhhhhgggg!!
7 years ago
So meny lovely dragons out there and so little time to see them all.
So last night I had probably one of the most scariest and most nerve racking experiences of my life.
Last night, while I was at work, I had a man come in and tell me that there was a lady outside of our store that was harassing others, I'm assuming for spare change. Well, I let one of our Night Stockers know about it, and he went outside to talk to the lady and tell her to scram. Well, he comes back in a moment later telling me she said she was just there to get a drink, but he asked me to keep an eye on her to make sure she wasn't up to something. (You know, because it's obvious by now that something just isn't right here. I should also mention that there is no manager there after 10pm. It's literally just me, and the Night Stockers.)
Lady comes into the store not long after, and is over by the drink coolers, just staring and getting down really low at the cooler. So I walk over to ask if she needs help. To which, she responds, "No ma'am." And I leave her be, but I'm still not convinced. So, I made sure to watch this woman like a hawk.
After a little bit, she's just standing behind this man at one of my Self-Check out stations. And I know for damn sure she's not with him. I'm assuming she was using him to block my view of her, but I didn't work so well, since he was moving a lot. She then walks over to two other men in the aisle behind her, and then comes and pays for her drink. After she walks away a bit, I ask the two gentlemen if she asked for money, and they nodded their heads. I then informed them that she had been outside doing the same thing to others outside.
After they check out, I walk out with them to the doors, to make sure the lady is gone, but nope.
Instead the women is WALKING TO MY CAR! AND THEN JUST SITS THERE STAREING AT IT FOR 5 SECONDS!
Nope! I know what she's doing, and I'm not having any of it! I walk outside and I tell this woman that she needs to get away from the car. She then says, "It's my little brother's car!" (You guy's I've never wanted to punch a girl so hard in my life!)
I tell her that that is a damn lie and that that is my goddamn car, and I'm guessing that what she is doing next, is a way of trying to get me to come closer to her. Because she starts "yelling" more quietly and I can't hear her. But again, I'm not as dumb as I look!
I then pull out my phone, and start to call the cops, and then she starts READING OUT MY PLATE NUMBER! So, by then I'm flipping out and the woman has not left. I keep my eye on her while talking to dispatch, and they send two cops over.
To make a long story short, They showed up, they talk to the lady, then to me, and then they take her off the property. The worst part of all, this had me so damn anxious all night, and I got literally no sleep!
Management is crazy if they think I'm working till closing again after this!
Lesson here: If something seems off, please get help! Go with your instincts, because their usually right! And it's better to be safe then sorry.
And if you made it this far in the post, Thanks for reading, I had to get this off my chest!
