    Well tonight around like 8 pm at work there was some guy that wanted like 3 quarters for a whole bunch of pennies. Now as I was watching him while he was talking me..something just seemed a bit odd about him...but I didn't really give it anymore thought and he left after I gave him the quarters and that was it. But like 15 or so minutes later he came back and was apparently bugging his cousin for some money but she didn't give him any and she brought her stuff and left. Then the dude had this mad look on his face and said how he couldn't believe she "played" him like that and then he reached in his pocket struggling to pull out a gun, to attempt to rob me...at this point I was about to dive behind the desk and just pray that he was just gonna take the money and not shoot me. But before he could get it out like 7 cops just burst into the store with their guns drawn and they arrested him and took him away. Apparently he robbed someone else before he came here the 2nd time. Never been so scared in my life...

    You gotta cherish life man..never know what's gonna happen out there.

    That's crazy, man. You always see stuff like that happen on TV and never think about being in those situations. Glad everything is alright because it could have been very different if the cops didn't come on time or at all for that matter.

    Damn Smitty, I'm glad you're alright. I agree with MrJ completely. These type of things you only see on TV or hear about happening to others. You never think it's going to happen to you. Anyways, I'm glad to see you're alright. I hope this doesn't happen to you again

    Maybe you'll wind up on one of those tv shows where they show hold-ups and stuff.

    Have you been having any post-traumatic stress since?

    Glad to hear you're ok Smitty, while not as dramatic as your situation, I was almost stabbed once, so I know the feeling you probably had at the time.

    How lucky was that though, that the Cops happened to be onto him as he came in.

    Yeah I'm guessing someone had called the cops and they followed him..and I guess when they saw him reaching for his pocket they burst in before he could do anything to me.

    The scariest thing that has ever happened to me was being chased by a crazy nut through the bookstore and mall after I threw my orange julius at him.
