car was broken into @ the work place Jan 2, 2004

[kendogg]

Im a very naive person when it comes to legal issues and what not. Here goes the story..

Jan 2, 2004 it was a rainy day, a perfect day for a theif to break into a vehicle. The vandals broke my driver side window and made an attempt to steal my car as my ignition just hangs. They took my mp3 unit along with my itr shift knob. I never felt so violated.

I filed a police report with local authorities. I also spoke with our loss prevention staff and they told me they can't do anything. We as employees have to park in the back lot which is a good distance from the entrance of the store. There is no security in the back lot although they have 2 cameras on the side of the store that supposedly monitors the parking lot.

I am now without a car until my adjuster calls and makes an appointment so I can take the car to the dealership to get repairs done.

Is there anyway I can have my work provide transportation for me? Please assist me..

Does your insurance provide a rental?

By any chance do you work at any FRYs here in So California? Those so called cameras they have at corners of the building look like they cant do squat... good luck man... hope it gets better for you.

Which Fry's do you work at man? I drive a 94 Integra LS myself. GSRs and Type Rs are very well known for theives. What you should have done was install one of those radio alarms. Since you're working in the store, the signal won't be that far so you can get an alert beep. One of my roommate has the same car I have except it's a 96. It has so much security, I don't know how anyone can steal it. He has like 5 backup batteries for the alarm, an alarm radio that sends a signal which tells him which said of the car is being broken into, the club, motion detector, and the auto-lock. It's well secure.

Fry's also has employees who don't know what the fu*k their talking about when it comes to stuff their selling. No offense to kendogg. One day I'm just going to bitch at them when they piss me off.

Im not pointing fingers at anyone. It could have been anyone...

Always read about thieves breaking into vehicles/stealing vehicles. I always thought sh!t that sux... now I know exactly how it feels.. again very violating!

Well, at least you didn't install them yourself. :beer:

Try selling them off and getting stock ones to help fund your "new stereo" cause? I suggest putting an ad outside your local Pep Boys - you'll have them sold two days tops, less if you throw in a free bottle of Octane Booster.

I found out that Fry's owns the parking lot. Any lawheads out there? Do i have a case...?

I have a 1000$ deductible for my damages. My adjuster inspected the vehicle today and gave an estimate of 900~

 

[xxAgentCowxx]

dont they have signs up everywhere that say "we are not responsible"blah blah blah all over there?

 

[xxAgentCowxx]

btw, what time do you guys close today? i want to stop and grab a dvd burner after work

 

[NokiaDude]

Just thank god they didn't steal the car. $900> $15k + manual labor
