The invisble theives
I work at this gas station in Chicago where I was targeted as a person being too nice not only by my co-workers, but my boss as well. He would always ask me to come in on my off day and I would agree until one day, this officer start come in the store introducing himself and telling us stories about how the previous owner was getting beat and robbed. One day the officer is off duty and some young man came in the store and robbed us by gunpoint, my co-worker was so shook up, she used the bathroom on herself. To my surprise the robbers did not want any thing but cash, not even the young lady's purse that was in pure site, When the girl's sister comes to work, she said that the other co-worker's boy said that some people were going to hit them up a different night. Two months passed and the young girl quit. Some other guys came back trying to rob the place again. That when I had it because my head started hurting. I was having trouble in my apartment complex with people invade me and my boyfriend things. I was talking to him on the phone and people were trying to label me as a thief. They don't even know what the heck was going on. Lines were tried and they were listening to our conversations, and were catching bits and pieces of what was going on.They started coming in our home when we left, They would always be watching us and they were doing things when my boyfriend left to go to work. it was hared living over there and I had had enough.I went to the police about what was going on. I used to see the men by the cars at night, breaking people's windows, and it just really started getting on my nerves because other people act like they don't know what the heck was going on. The police were trying to find them. How could you when the main criminals are still around the complex and you are telling other people to watch out, and the maintenance people were involved. I am not understanding this picture. How can you tell them to watch out for something, they get other people involved when it is none of their business? Someone needs to help with the situation because now I am looking like the criminal.
