One man on one island.

Lauren’s gear stolen

Comments

My girlfriend’s purse and mobile phone were stolen today by an unknown thief that decided to break into her staff room at work, and clean out the lockers.

Her wallet and phone was stolen, another girl also had her wallet and phone stolen, and another had her phone stolen and another had her wallet and assignment book stolen (??!)

They escaped via the fire exit, setting off the alarm.

Lauren when on to tell me:
"i am sooooo angry and pissed off at the moment. Not so much the money thing (about $100 cash - my next two weeks spending money), but the fact that i need to replace all the cards (Drivers licence, student ID, medicare, etc), and now is THE worst time it could happen - snowed under with exams and assignments.
Plus the phone was very nice and there is no way i can afford another one at the moment.
all cards, phone etc have been barred.
one girl had her CC used a couple of suburbs away about ten minutes before she barred it.

Oh and what makes it worse is that our company will not compensate for their incompetance to provide adequate security for our belongings."

Nothing like someone going through your stuff and it being stolen to make you feel sick/angry. Lauren’s doing is bouncing back well and getting her cards back together.

I will miss her mobile phone though, a Nokia 3200 I gave to Lauren as a present less then six months ago!

A phone is just a phone though in the end, at least no one was hurt in this ordeal.
