Last week i was the victim of a nonviolent crime (car stolen) in broad daylight while I was at work. No one cared. No one offered a ride home. My boss kept asking me what I planned on doing because were not allowed to be there after we clock out. No one saw anything or so they say. No one called the cops or the security guard or offered to help me in any way.
The car was found missing only the stereo and my personal items that were in the car. it was parked in a red zone cops ran the plates when they towed it then called us.
Maybe im paranoid but i do NOT think this was a random crime or a crime of opportuniy i think it was personal. Why steal a car just for an old stereo then park it a few blocks away?
i do suffer from ptsd and because i have seen too of the worst of mankind and not enough of the best i do have a cynical view of the world. And to me this seems like someone did this on purpose to make sure i would be there without a car(it was my boyfriends car needless to say he doesnt let me take it to work anymore) alone waiting for a ride or a bus or whatever. The local police were not helpful and i don't feel safe there anymore
I never really did feel safe there but now i am literally afraid to go to work and i want to transfer back to my old store. can i say its medical reasons and cite my ptsd and axiety as backup?
