Do you feel safe?
Reports on the news about one guy who was stabbed in the chest for two bottles of booze
If you work on the tills does your emplyer offer any kind of protection, e.g. security guard, glass screens, etc?

A friend of mine works for an oil company and one of his friends had a guy come in with a gun into a petrol station to rob them and he just started laughing at them "ha .. ha .. it's bullet proof glass" .. and the robber ran away.
Later he found out it wasn't bullet proof at all!!!
In most of those kinds of holdups they either want the money in the till or the stuff behind the counter like drinks. I'd have thought most shop keepers should thing about their safety a little more I mean even the occassional drunk might want to cause trouble.
It was also after about a year that I asked him what the shiny red button under the till was that I found out about the panic button (?!)
Have they done anything about the robberys? Oh Yeah, they got this short stumpy fella who stands at the door, sipping his coffee all the time, WHILST guarding of course. Added a few more secuity cameras. A plastic screen round the till area and a sign at the front, reminding people to remove their helmets before coming in.
Has their been any robberies since?!
What you think?! :-/
I would be scared if I had read half of the comments on here!
