Today I encountered some harassment.
Khara and I were going to get lunch, and because of the rain, passed through the bottommost floor of the mall. While we were down there, I noticed some guys being really sketchy, but I continued walking on.
We got our food and headed back to the store when we encountered them again. We made eye contact with one of them, and he proceeded to drop a bottle of Smirnoff. We headed up the escalator and were on our way to the store. Unfortunately, one of them started walking down on the up escalator and tried to get our attention. I have no idea what they were saying to us, but I know that everyone else was trying to ignore them also. We kept walking, and they followed us from the ground floor to the second floor and then to The Lanai. I didn't want to go to the store because I didn't want them to know where we work.
At this point I was calling mall security, while Khara basically stopped, pushed her finger into the middle of his chest, and said, "Yo. Cut it out we're calling mall security."
They ran off. I was annoyed, and mall security took fucking forever to come and help us. It's easy for people to say stand up for yourself against harassment, but you never know what people are brazen enough to do with an unengaged crowd.
