What are you waiting for?
My co-worker had to serve jury duty today. We've all been there. Generally boring but rather uneventful. Unfortunately, that was not the case for her. She went to go to lunch when they asked if anyone owned a blah, blah, blah, license plate number. She was like, yeah, that's my car. We need you to go to the security office. At first she was thinking this wasn't good but thought maybe she just parked in a spot she shouldn't have. Not so. They told her that her car had been vandalized.
Naturally upset, she asked them WTF? Don't you people have cameras?! They told her they did and that she could file a police report if she wanted. Oh no! WHY would I want to do that?!
They smashed her window, ripped off the glove compartment door. They tore off her panel to take the CD player/radio out (which they did get along with all of her CDs and her new iPass that she just bought). She said they used such force that even her stick shift is all fucked up. But the kicker of it all? They left her a present. A pair of eyeglasses. (They're not hers and she doesn't know who's they are. I'm going to assume the police will take them as evidence.)
Now obviously, this is in no way funny. Her car was pretty much trashed. Fortunately, she wasn't there at the time because she may have been hurt in the process. I am glad she is okay and feel horrible about what happened to her car. But on the same token, I can't help but find the twisted irony of it all. Here she is doing her civic duty. Possibly getting picked to hear a criminal case and she's robbed. In some sick, twisted, cosmic sense, it kinda makes ya chuckle.
