    I was involved in a physical confrontation at a shipper today. This involved an employee who I guess may be bipolar? I don't know. Anyway, I am on this property a number of times per week and he rolls up on me whenever he has the opportunity. Today I was slapped for refusing to take off my sunglasses.

    I want to record any future visits to this property to my cell phone to email to management at this shipper and to the company I temp for. I realize this is entrapment, but I'm past giving a rat's. Are there any spy cameras you'd recommend? Is there anything out there that records to a cellphone?

    Yes. He knocked my sunglasses off because I refused to take them off when I came inside.

    He is still alive? I hope you pressed charges for battery!

    Ref a hidden camera, you can check any electronic store, police equipment store, and home security location. If there is a Private Investigator that you are aware of you can ask them where to buy. Don't ask me how I know.

    Oh, trust me. If it wasn't against the law, he'd be basting in bear mace, right now.

    ...That's partly what the camera is for. I ned proof that it's happening and that I am not escalating it.

    You seem to have your share of problems in the trucking world.

    If you were assaulted there is no reason that the person that did this was not arrested. No need for secret spy cams or anything goofy like that. A simple call to 911 is all that is needed.

    Skip the Mr. Gadget bull****. As soon as you were assaulted by another person you should have pulled out your cell phone and called the police. I cant imagine you have to ask an internet forum what to do.
