New Job

Post by NeverSayDie »

Got a new, somewhat fulltime gig as a 3rd shift gas station attendant. There's been a chain of robberies going around and my joints security makes an ATM look like fort knox. I'm looking for something relatively cheap that say's "you picked the wrong clerk motherfucker" thats also effective and compact so I can keep it under the counter. I already checked the employee manual, theres no rule against it.

Any suggestions?

Common sense.
Not only is that your best choice, that's all you can afford.

Bit of advice? It's not your money, it ain't worth dying for or doing time for. If the owner cared he'd protect his place better, so clearly he doesn't. Which in effect means he doesn't give a shit about you either.

If you're going to pack a roscoe, pack a good one, and only use it to defend your life. Fuck the money, again, if the owner cared, he'd square his shit away.

Dying for someone ele's 200.00 ain't no way to make a living for a young man.

Must be you're just trying to make conversation, after all, what can you legally own in this town?
Right.
Since you're in the other room, we'll discuss this tonight.

Ranger cams,

I have no intention of picking a fight with a robber over money that I'll never spend. I spend half my time wishing someone WOULD rob this place and take some of my co-workers with them :twisted: .

I still consider arming myself with something as a good investment simply because the idea of being at the mercy of any gangbanger hopped up on god knows what does'nt really appeal to me.

And, My mom kicked me out so I racked out in Ranger Ingrahams guest room until I saved up enough for my own place.
