TGIF! It’s Masters weekend which is a good time to catch up on your napping.

Survival – Personal Edition

So there you are, wandering around the bad part of town when you realize you’re just been pickpocketed. Well, let’s follow that crook and sic the cops on them.

• Start by disguising yourself a professional makeup artist here. You just need simple changes such as removing or adding a jacket. If you’re wearing layers, talk off the top one. Add or remove a hat. Same with sunglasses if it’s a sunny day.
• Don’t stare at them, and definitely don’t ever make eye contact, as that will make you stand out to them. Remember, you have terrific peripheral vision, so use it.
• This kind of contradicts the last point, but do this immediately. Take stock of their identifying characteristics. This includes height, build, clothing, and how they walk. You’ll be able to rely on this information if they get out of your sight or walk through a crowd to relocate them.
• Stay back. Keep plenty of distance between the two of you. Stay at least 40 feet away from them. Walk on the other side of the street if available as well.
• Don’t follow them into a store. Instead wait across the street or a few doors down and wait for them to come back out. If there’s a delay, check for another exit, such as a side or back door.
• Once they’ve arrived at a destination, call the cops and give them their location and description. Do not confront them directly.
• Note that sometimes the thief will hand off your stolen property to another person, who will do the same. If that happens, just stick with the first thief. They’ll meet back up with their friends eventually.

Hopefully you’ve now gotten your stuff back and the thief is having a nice chat with the police. Go back about your day and keep a better eye on your stuff.
