Mood

Ok so first off... WERE OK


Most important thing!


Second off, as you know, we work at GameStop together.

Ok ON TO THE STORY

So we were doing everything like normal, ringing, and chatting with customers. We had to stay longer tonight because we are one of the stores that is experimenting with Sundays being open til 9PM instead of 5PM. MOVING ON!

So these three guys come in with guns and says to give them all our money. My mind wanted me to laugh... it kept saying that it was all my imagination, or a joke... It wasnt.

The man held the gun straight at my head as I got down on the ground... honestly everything is a blur..

First off... A reminder

When robbers come in, even without guns, DO WHAT THEY SAY!

If it seems safe, WAIT, thats what is safest!

If some body comes to the store you are working at and tells you there is a robbery next door, even if they are making jokes, DO NOT IGNORE IT unless you know for a fact that nothing is happining. If you have no idea, do NOT chance it, call the police immediately.

NOBODY UNDERSTOOD THAT LAST RULE
No stores around us called, and one even closed the door on the person trying to help us saying "Not our problem!" ... IT WILL BE

If the person is lying, YOU WILL NOT GET IN TROUBLE. Immediately call... the police can figure it out.

Last rule. STAY COMPLETELY CALM. If the robber sees any movement, you are a threat. If you remain calm, you will remain save unless he's a psycho killer... YOU KNOW WHAT?! STAY CALM THEN TOO! You are more important than merchandise and money, Do NOT be a hero!

My head went to millions of places, I thought I would never see my family again, I thought how I was so close to my dream, and I dreaded the thought that I could never say I love you to the people I love most... or even say good-bye...

Remember, YOU will always be the most important person to you, Merchandise, money, or even your own belongings, are not worth your life.

Take care... Please...
