Attacked
One of my co-workers, a sweet, middle-aged woman named Evelyn, was just attacked and stabbed right outside our office by thieves who wanted her purse. She’s been taken to the hospital. She’s honestly the type of person who, though I hate to use the cliche, wouldn’t hurt a fly. Very reserved and sweet. She helps coordinate disability management for disabled employees at my company. And this happened in broad daylight.
We’re all a bit shaken up right now. Security is here to see if anyone needs escorts to their car.
I really hope she’s okay. Our office is just a block away from the projects, like so many places in SF. I always feel like I’m lucky that no one ever tries anything with me, but a six-foot something man is more difficult of a target than a five-foot something middle-aged woman.
I can’t wait until we move offices in December.
