I'm doing this more for my own log of events then anything but I hope that someone may have a brilliant idea or that a neighbor of mine may become informed.

I thought I saw him five minutes ago, at 8:35 in the morning.  The only reason I am still here is because my son insisted on eating at home.  I am usually gone by now.  It appeared that my morning behaviors were well known.

He was wearing a Georgia Power jacket.  I grabbed my dog and my phone and went outside.  I made an awful racket and then I shouted, "excuse me!"  When he saw me, he high-tailed it down the driveway, behind the neighbor's garage apartment, and out onto Orme.  He fled down Orme towards piedmont park.

I called the police.  The police actually arrived in under 30 minutes!  Unfortunately, the police man couldn't understand that I was not saying the Georgia Power man was stealing from me but that I was assuming this man is not the Georgia Power employee masquerading as one in a Georgia Power jacket.  He explained that there is a GP truck right up Monroe.  I suggested that the thief just stole the jacket from the truck.  He went off to investigate.

The policeman returned with the Georgia Power man in his car.  He had a hat, badge and name tag stating he was G Power.  I was very apologetic.  I explained that I'd called out and had my dog with me and that he headed down the side street.  He said he didn't hear me.  It was questionable and my paranoid self almost still believes that something is wrong with this situation.  He had no clipbard, no pen...   At least I can head to work now. 

It looks like I am going to have to stick to cameras and home protection.  No, I won't kill the Georgia Power guy in an scared over-reaction.  Since I can't seam to do anything about it and the police are less then helpful, I just need to make sure I won't wake up to someone in my house without a way to defend myself and my family.  This is like having an unknown disease where you don't know whether it might kill you or if it will just, eventually, go away with a little aspirin.

I am, however, an idiot for calling 911 because the GP man was doing, something....
