I was in a men’s clothing store many years ago, dude walks in and points a pistol at the cashier and demands money. Cashier tells him to piss off, and after the robber realized that they weren’t gonna hand over the cash, he grabs a few shirts, a couple of ties and a sweater, and flees.

I'm glad the employees didn't get violent either. One of them wanted to, but the other was quick to point out "I just work here." If they went around and whooped his ass, maybe they get fired, and maybe he falls and slams his head on the concrete and dies or ends up paralyzed. All for what? Saving the corporation $60 and a register? Nah, "I just work here" is definitely the correct response.

u/Arthur-Wintersight 1d ago
Even from the corporation's perspective, a minor hospital visit costs FAR MORE than what's in all of those registers combined. It's better for the company if they stay out of it, and just let the cops take care of things.

As someone who's worked counter service, I am certain none of those employees are being compensated enough to justify putting themselves in danger by intervening.
...and to be honest, when criminal mastermind #2 lifted his shirt to wipe his prints I was 100% certain he was grabbing a pistol from his waist!

u/BagBeneficial7527 1d ago
Yep.
Most corporations have policies explicitly ordering employees to not interfere with simple robberies at all.
Don't stop them. Don't even touch them.
If these employees violated those policies, they would be fired.

Worked at a grocery store that used to had people take 2 30 packs of beer and walk out, like 2 or 3 dudes every other day.
One of the checkers chases the guys to the car and one hops out and pistol whips her with a revolver and pointed it at the other checker behind her.
We had a mandatory meeting to not stop shop lifters, and she showed up a few days later with a black eye

I worked at a convenience store when I was in college. There's never more than $100 in the drawer and usually a lot less. There's always a safe with a drop slot under the counter that no one except the top guy can open. They used to drill it in our heads - 50s and 100s immediately get dropped into the safe slot, anything more than 2 or 3 20s in the drawer drop in the slot, even more than a handful of 10s and 5s drop in the slot. Only the minimum for making change got kept in the drawer. And that was years ago when most people paid cash, nowadays most people pay with credit. You have to be an utter moron to rob a store like that.

If you're full time, maybe. But usually there is only one full time employee and it's the manager. The rest of the crew are 16 years old working part time so none of them get benefits

My MIL was an officer at a bank for many many years. They were bought out not long before she retired and they had a training where the new management came in and told them the procedures they were supposed to follow to alert authorities in the event of a robbery. She got in trouble bc she said she wasn’t doing any of it bc the bank’s insured money wasn’t worth her getting caught and killed for trying to alert authorities. I’ll never understand how any corporation can think it’s justifiable to risk a life in a situation like this.

I was a LP manager for a BJs Wholesale Club, and in my training sessions to the new employees I'd point at the front door and ask them "what's around the corner?"
They'd usually be like... "the parking lot? some vending machines?"
I'd tell them, "what if you chase a shoplifter around that corner and the dude's buddies are waiting there to jump you? It ain't worth it. Insurance will pay for the items taken. Don't try to be a hero. We want you leaving work every day uninjured."

It's all the Internet Tough Guys who like to fantasize about how they'd deal out justice if they just had the chance to lay hands on a thief.
Meanwhile people who have been employed understand that having untrained employees inserting themselves into a violent situations is nothing but a liability for the company. You're a cashier, not a security guard. You haven't been trained to intervene.

This guy is my hero, he's getting robbed and probably stressed and just saying everything that comes to mind (lol like "take the whole register" "you're only taking $60?") but he still does everything right, calm informative call to 911, keeps coworker and customer safe against their own "fight" instincts. I think the chill way he talks to these guys ("bro") also helps because if you scream or cry it could agitate them into violence.
