After 1900 our Tesco local has their doors locked and you have to be let in. Why are people such pricks. I work on the railway and someone threatened to stab me over a £4 ticket the other day. I just fucking hate people.
Must be a pretty old Tesco to be still going after 123 years!
Crime goes up when desperation levels go up. People are desperate. Agreed, it's wrong that it puts you in danger, but you are the face of the corporation they are angry at. It's misdirected anger.
I hope you give your employers an earful for putting you in that vulnerable position.
They'd be told to look for work elsewhere.
But in a less polite manner.
Well if your employer is putting you in danger, that might be a good outcome. You probably have a good employment law case.
