do you work in a dangerous place

BillieTheBotBillieTheBot Posts: 8,721 Bot
well i walked into a crime scene this morning, found the doors unlocked, office open, cash all over the floor, safes empty, tills from the safe scattered all over the floor

then turns out when ive got the rest of the people down from the company, and the police, that the reason the manager hasnt been answering his phone, is because earlier on that morning at around 3am, he was held at gunpoint and tied up in his own house

all fun and games, im now about 5 minutes away from a panic attack
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

    depends if you class tesco as being dangerous! guess it has the potential to be with people wanting to steal money and tins of beans falling on your head..but i doubt it.

    (or you could try and break your toes by pulling a really heavy cage over them like i did).

    Ecuador's quite a dangerous place but I've had no problems.

    Relatively safe, only usual risk of getting held up for money in the till (Which would be hard for them to do anyway as its members only and you need a member's key to get in), or the risk of glasses falling from the shelves above the bar or something :p

    No surely it's because of the Sheriff of Nottingham.

    This is the downside to increased security, in some instances it puts criminals off, in others it means that instead of trying to crack a safe and bypass an alarm system they instead go to the person who holds the keys and break into their homes and get in that way.

    The same thing is happening with car crimes, many cars are impossible to steal without the keys so criminals are breaking into people`s houses and stealing the keys first or even sticking wires through the letter boxes to get at them

    I work in a LTC packaging and distrubuting comapny. But theres 2 securities to get inside, one to get past the main part and 2 more to get into the area of the controlled substance with a million and a half cameras so nothing bad really happens.

    I once got a paper cut.
