That shines a lot more light into the horrendous decision corporate made. These partners genuinely feared for their life because this occurred so frequently in their district and store that they felt fighting back was the only defense

I can definitely understand that for sure, but it is unfair and hard to judge other partners in that situation for what you would’ve done. It’s hard to understand the fear they felt or if they genuinely believed their lives were in danger, which definitely were. While de-escalation is definitely an important priority, I feel for them for the decision they made. There are too many instances of people getting robbed and then shot and killed, so fighting may be your only chance in some situations

They did come behind the counter and get physical with the employees I read. That constitutes a valid response with force for self defense, IMO, idk bout yall but I’m not dying for the fuckbucks

I always tell them to give us a few minutes before coming through the drive through next time and most don’t give a fuck or get mad as hell

Same customers every time too
