I cleaned the car this morning, did a real good job too. I vacuumed it all out (Mom, you would be proud), cleaned the floor mats, and ran it through the car wash. We were going to drive 2 hours up to CT so I wanted to get some of the dirt out from all the plants and garden supplies that had exploded in the back seat. I drove back home and ran inside to get Kate. As I got out of the car I realized my camera and wallet were in the back seat, but I would just be quick. As I’m heading back out I hear the sound of breaking glass and see a guy putting things into his backpack and walking off. Another blond haired kid is out there on the phone, calling 911 and pointing to the dude I saw and saying that he had just broken into my car. He was only 30ft. down the sidewalk, so I followed him and when I asked him what was up, he told me that another guy had done it, and that we should run after him. We ran together around the corner, it was then that I noticed his hand was bleeding. I kept acting like I was looking around for the guy we were chasing but as we got to the corner of Havemeyer St. and Grand Ave. I thanked the guy for his help and asked if I could just see in his backpack for piece of mind. He said, “no problem” but kept walking, all the while I see Kate about 50 ft. behind us on the phone with the police. He then tried to act like he again saw the guy that broke into my car so we started running after him again up Havemeyer St. I think he was trying to get away from me, because he was straining to run, but I was right behind. As we got to South 2nd I started to tell him that if he just gave me my camera that everything would be cool. He was still trying to act like he didn’t have it, but eventually he reluctantly handed the camera over. I looked quick to make sure the camera was ok, and kept following him, asking him for my wallet. He said that he didn’t have my wallet and that we were “cool” because I had my camera. I told him “It doesn’t work like that” and kept following up to South 3rd where the police came speeding the wrong way up Havemeyer Ave. He tried to run once he saw them but it was no use. I had my camera, so I started taking pictures (see attached photo).
I was kind of busy with the police after that, but Kate was on the street with the crowd that developed and overheard an old timer saying “Is that Chico?”
“Yeah.” someone else said.
“What’d he do?”
“He broke into our car.” Kate said.
“Ohh”, the old timer said “That’s what he does..”
Yesterday, ventured out to LVSC in Copley, PA again. Shot a 66 of 100. Not bad… great weather too. Jon got a 91 of 100. He’s sick.
Yea, I know I shouldn’t post to my own blog about work… for the fear work people might read it. But, in this case, I don’t think it’s anything super secret or dangerous. Some people, I have no idea who, are very lazy in here. Not about work, however. This is the thing, everyone is really hard workers, stay late, diligent. Awesome team. But, when it comes to office chores it’s a different story. I’ve had to replace the soap after something finished it, the paper towels after someone used them all up, and the toilet paper roll after someone left it hanging. I don’t mind doing it at my house, after my roommate, because he does the same for me, and we forget sometimes. In an office environment, it should be different story. People are selectively selfish, I guess. It goes deeper, too. Everyone loves the fact the company supplies us with loads of food from Fresh Direct. However, when it arrives, you never see those hungry people ever help unpack the stuff and put it away in the refrigerator. The same goes for when the paper goods come. Just the other day, I was the only one unloading about 4 boxes of paper towels. About 28 rolls per box. And a huge box of tissue paper. Finally, an intern came over, and said, “You shouldn’t do this! It’s not your responsibility!” I know it’s not, but, who else was going to do it? I’m not bitter about doing it, I just don’t like the idea it’s the same very small group of people that do it. Why do we accept the janitor detail? We’re not you’re mom, right?
