Sib I can understand and sympathize with you. I worked in retail, part of a good sized chain and only once did we have someone try to rob the place. He didn't get very far, one of the customers had had a cell phone and had called the cops from the bathroom. I was fortunate that I was in the back room and never knew what had had happened until the cops showed up to take him away. My uncle however wasn't so lucky. He was working at a 24/7 gas station and was doing a double shift. At around 11pm two people robbed the place, and while the first time he wasn't hurt (they had baseball bats and knives) the second time he wasn't so lucky. He was shot in the shoulder and it was only luck that had kept the shot from being a heartshot. If it had been just 4inches lower it would have most likely killed him. He quit his job the day he got out of the hospital. Both robberies the jerks took less than 200 dollars since they couldn't get into the safe. Policy was that if the register had more than 250 dollars a drop had to be made of at least 200 and the safe worked similar to mailbox.... you can drop stuff in but without the right keys you can't get it back out.

I'm just glad your safe sib and I hope the bastards get exactly what they deserve..... like scorpions biting them in the ass. Be safe sib.
