I love ppl watching so I'm always looking around, also I've been finding when I stop for lunch I sit with my back to a wall away from the door, don't know why or when I started doing it but I feel safer that way when I'm alone.
Just read a story about how 20 something females are the most targeted subjects in theft, because they are the ones most engrossed in their phones and not to what's going on around them
Ps there have been a few times I've been sitting into work van doing paper work or on the phone and some one gets to close an I get A little defensive. One day I didn't notice this older gentleman I was doing my paper work and he walked up to my van and instead of taping on the window, he opened the door instantly grasped my pen like a dagger and look at this guy as he starts asking me directions?!?? I said to him wtf are you opening my door for you scared the hell outta me, then he noticed the pen in my hand. He took a few steps back and said sorry. I told him is ok but that's not a very smart thing to be doing!
