Held up
So we were robbed at work last night. Fcking scared the crap out of me. I feel like such an idiot now though cause I knew he didn't have a gun.
Story-
Big black dude wearing a ski jacket hood (not the jacket, just the hood) walks in pretening to talk on a cell phone. I knew he was going to be trouble from the moment I saw him, but I thought he was just going to take some movies and leave. Well he gets off his fake cell phone, puts his hand under his shirt by his pants, and tells me to give him all the cash. I'm like "What??" just not believing someone was actually trying to rob the place. And he said it again, so I'm still being all dumbass like.
Him-"Open the register and give me all the cash in it"
Me-"I don't know how"
Him-"don't you have keys or something?"
Me(lying)- "no"
Him- "Open the drawer"
Me(lying)- "I can't, I don't know how."
Him- "How does it open then?"
Me- "When I process a transaction. I ring something up, and you give me money to put into the drawer."
Him- "Then ring something up"
Me- "I can't"
Him getting frustrated- "Do you guys bring your wallets and purses to work?"
Me- "No, I leave that stuff at home."
Him- "Go back there" (Pointing to the back office)
So he sheepheards me and Adam into the office, I was so afraid he was jsut going to shoot me in the back or something. He picks up my purse and starts going through it. Ignoring the car keys and cell phone, he picks up my wallet, get's Bree's backpack, and asks for Adam's wallet. Adam pulls it out, opens it and is like "I have no cash, see" so I guess the guy let Adam keep his wallet. He opens mine and I'm like "Please leave my wallet, I have important things in there. Just take the cash." and he's like "Oh no, I wouldn't do that to you." So he takes the $20 I have in there and puts my wallet down. I told him Bree didn't have any cash in there but he said he didn't care and took it anyways.
So we all go back out to behind the counter and he turns to Adam, knowing he wasn't going to get me to open the drawer, and tells him to ring something up. So Adam, stupidly, just opens it and gives the guy all the cash in it. Then the guy just turned and walked casually out the door.
I told adam to go lock the door and I ran into the office and called 911 and then Zach. A little while after the cops came, they said they had someone detained and drove me over to id him. It was just one of the kids working at burger king, I felt so bad for him.
There was only like $70 in the cash drawer, according to Zach. I had just done a $300 drop half an hour prior, so that was pretty damn smart of me. Bree was like "You're going to be a good manager!" Sucks for her though cause she had her cell phone, house keys, wallet with bank cards and id's, everything in her backpack.
I feel hella bad for Zach though cause he probably stayed there till 2 am putting out the new movies that we didn't get a chance to do, and then he had to be at work at 9am. Unless he called someone in or something. I dunno. I was shaking so badly last night and was on the verge of tears half the time. It was so scary. Lately, I've been meaning to ask Zach what to do in case of a robbery, but obviously I never got around to it. Damn you irony.
