Today at work
About 11:15am a fellow came in demanding to be given a whole bunch of change. We don't keep much change in the till, and what with it being a quiet Saturday there wasn't much money there. I said I couldn't give him any, but that the Bendigo Bank was right next door and they could give him whatever he wanted. He then threatened to stab me in the throat if I didn't give him the change.
Now, I suppose I should have just handed over whatever was available, but I don't like being threatened, at all. I told him to get out of the store. He started to yell and became even more abusive. He then left and I called the police...who took an hour to arrive. (Mt.Gravatt District Police Head Quarters is only 400 metres away)... A report was made, and other units were notified to be on the look out for him.
Maybe it's just that Liverpool attitude of, fuck you, don't threaten me. Anyway, he was probably just some hot-head who was in a bad mood. If he comes back though I will dial 000 straight away.
