Woman Walks 20 Miles To Work Every Day Not Knowing She’s Being Trailed

Every morning and every evening since the year began, she had been walking 20 miles to work, hoping that better alternatives would some day become available, but also knowing that there wasn’t much that could be done.

Ten miles to go, ten miles to come back home. At first, she didn’t know if she would be able to handle it. but now, six months later, she even enjoyed it sometimes. But suddenly, one day, something unexpected happened: she realized there was a police car following her.

Doing Everything For Her Kids

Mandy Jean Beasley was your average forty-year-old American living in Chicago, Illinois. A mom of two beautiful young boys, Mandy had raised them by herself, doing everything she could to give them the best lives they could ask for.

She was working as a waitress then, comfortable with everything she had. But all this changed in the bat of an eye.

Tough Times

In the first quarter of 2021, Mandy’s company laid off several employees, her included. The exercise came as a surprise to her and her colleagues, with the company stating that it needed to downsize as a response to the dwindling economy.

The blow found Mandy off guard, and she dipped into her savings to support her two boys. She knew she had to look for a new job as soon as possible or end up on the streets.

Searching For A New Job

The search for a new job was more challenging than Mandy thought, with many prospective employers passing her up for other candidates. But she didn’t lose hope, scouring job forums and websites for months until she found a good position.

But as much as the job description matched everything she knew and could offer, there were a few big issues that would deter her from applying.

Insurmountable Odds

The job Mandy was applying for was akin to her last position. But sadly, it was paying less than her previous position. The company offices were also ten miles away from her house.

She didn’t have any money to spare for the commute since she was deep in debt after being unemployed for almost a year. Despite the odds stacked against her, Mandy settled for the job.
