Bit of a long one...I was in work today at the nail desk doing a client and some guy walked in and handed me a leaflet that once i had a closer look was a chester zoo leaflet, he had a bunch of these in his hand and as i was taking a closer look he reached down and swiped my iphone off the reception desk. I don't ever leave my phone out, its always in the kitchen in the back but i was expecting a call from my boss, sods law! He kept saying 20p 20p and i realised he was having me on & i didn't have the time or patience for this so told him no. As soon as he had left i looked over at my phone & it had gone!! So i ran out after him and demanded my bloody phone back!! I don't know what i was thinking but i just lost it, he kept saying no no & patting his pockets! He actually came back into the salon and while i pressed myself up against the door to stop him leaving he quickly placed it down on my nail desk, i didn't even see him do it! So i grabbed it moved out of the way & told him to leave & never come back! It was so so hard to keep calm & continue with my client when i was shaking like a leaf & try not letting the client know i was in shock & just wanted to cry! I rang the police & reported it but now i don't feel safe in work & I'm on my own all weekend, boss is away. My husband got in his van and waited outside for 1/2 hour for me to finish & shut up shop bless him because he was worried & i felt much safer that my big man was outside waiting to bash this guy in if he came back. But I'm quiet disturbed as nothing like this has ever happened! So everyone be aware of this as it might be a new thing these gangs are trying!! Has anyone else had anything like this happen at work??
