Last night I took a phone call at work. There was this guy who said he was doing a fashion survey but then he started asking me really sexual questions. Eventually I hung up on him but I was really freaked out. I told the assistant manager who was there and he gave me the loss prevention hotline number to call. I called it as soon as I got home from work. My mom overheard me and got really freaked out and it upset me even more. I couldn't even sleep last night.
Today after my last class I called the store manager to tell him about it. The hotline had already gotten to him, but I wanted him to hear it from me. He was really nice about it. I mean, he said he would do everything he could to make me feel safe at work. He's going to tell all the assistant managers so they can keep an eye on me and even walk me to my car after my shift (my mom insisted).
I really appreciate that everyone is helping me, really, but in a way it's making me feel worse. I don't want everyone to think that I can't go to work, because I WILL continue going to work. I really need this job. But what can I do to keep from jumping every time the phone rings, like I was last night? I want to assure everyone that I'm going to be ok, but how can I do that when I feel so vulnerable?
