I volunteer at the hospital and I'm usually there until 8:30 at night. This wasn't a big problem in the summer, but now that fall's approaching, it's getting darker faster and I'm getting kind of worried. I've heard of horrible things happening to young girls (I'm 16).
Anyway, one of my friends who works at a neighboring hospital told me that a volunteer there was raped by a security guard so this entire situation is making me feel VERY nervous.
Someone suggested to me that I carry pepper spary in my purse or pocket and I thought that would be a good idea, but I'm not over hte age of 18, which is when you can legally carry pepper spray.
Is there anything else I can do to protect myself? Sure, I'm being paranoid, but I think- better safe than sorry.
