Wait a min. I'm getting confused here.
Too many boys in the harem. Hard to keep them straight.
So you're talking about the security guard?
Yes, one of several security guards. The one mentioned
here.
His behavior grew more erratic since then. This dude wrote the playbook on Crazy. I reported it a month earlier when it was affecting the job, but nobody would do anything about it. The client complained as well and still, nobody did anything. I don't think he's "normal", though. Everyone who has met him agrees there's something wrong with him - even people his own age. He's totally insufferable. Incorrigible with his own supervisor since Day 1, come to find out now.
More & more things kept happening until one night when it all came to a head. I needed him to go back and complete one of his duties which he had sloppily left incomplete once again (I didn't say it like that, though. I was neutral.) He angrily confronted me. He was breathing like a bull out of his flared nostrils and had a psycho, glazed look in his eyes. It almost seemed like an act, though. Like a 5 year old with a flair for the dramatic stomping his feet and putting on an over-rehearsed play for drama / attention. I thought when he walked away, that was the end of it. But 30 min. later, my phone rang. It was a creepy call like something out of a low-budget horror movie. He didn't state who he was, just started in with a weird, almost Shakespearean, speech followed by a barrage of insults towards me and thinly-veiled threats issued. The tone was so odd. He sounded like he was literally reading lines from a movie script with fake / disconnected emotions like some kind of sociopath, which I really think he is one. I thought about hanging up but decided to stay silent and listen to everything he had to say so I could allow him to hang himself with his own words.
I thought he might try to kill me. I didn't think he would succeed. But I thought he might come back and try. Luckily by that point, there were a few other people in the building near me. But as crazy as he is, I wasn't sure that would stop him. He's done inappropriate things in front of others before (foul language, abusing the property, blasting rave music, etc). As soon as he hung up on me, I called the person a couple levels above me at home and said I don't feel safe, I have kids, they need me more than you do, I'm not going to lose my life over this, I'm calling the police if this security guard comes back inside this building, and I won't be back. I waited until we closed (in hindsight, I wish I hadn't. They later thanked me for the tenacity to not run out the door immediately. Ugh. I really should have.) I asked those people to stay with me and walk me out to my car.
Now they take it seriously. :
