How does one get car stolen

One might be a f---ing idiot.

No, but for real. The woman came into the gas station shaking, asking to use the phone. She said her husband had just tried to choke her out, that she needed to call the police and a hotline that might give her a place to go for the night. But when she got off the phone, she seemed really distraught and told me all the shelters around here were full. I let her stay here. When I woke up, she was gone along with my keys and my car.

You aren't an idiot. You saw someone in trouble and tried to help.
But there are people out there who will take advantage of that. Or maybe she really was in need and just...felt like she needed to do that. Who knows.
For now, putting yourself down is not productive. Focusing on what you did wrong is not productive. Instead, let's try and make a plan of what you can do next time someone is in need, whilst also protecting yourself and your family, because opening your home is altruistic but not very safe.
Find ways to help indirectly. Gather resources you can hand out. Give back to the community via donations, volunteering, etc. Give in a way that fills your heart but protects it as well.
I notice your struggling with guilt over being unable to help people. It's okay to put yourself first. You're going to be married now, so putting yourself second is also putting your wife second, because she needs you. It's not productive to guilt yourself for being unable to provide help directly. The only thing that achieves is hurting your self-esteem.
Above all else, you'll get through this. This situation is not forever. Keep your chin up, for yourself, but also for your loved ones -
you're a really great friend, Seth. thank you.

my car got stolen on Thursday. everyone at work knows that, but due to the technicality that boss left work early on Friday, and therefore wasn't acting manager when I got in touch with her to call out that day, it can be argued that I no call no showed on Friday. I guess I expected literally any form of empathy from my coworkers as I have been at an emotional all time low for days now and my whole worldview is crumbling and I LITERALLY DON'T HAVE A CAR ANYMORE but evidently it's not enough for me to just suffer. someone felt the need to also tell the district manager, who has the authority to demote or fire me, that I no call I no showed.

I’m sorry 😢
