Could you do this?

I think I could be able to do it. The people who run those kiosks depend on those earnings. There's always going to be a risk. It's just like if you work in a bank or in a convenience store, and you get held up. People get over it, and they get back to work. Same with school shootings. The Virginia Tech students had a week to deal with the loss of classmates and friends, and to deal with their own feelings of fear. But on the first day that classes were in session again, most students showed up. Whether they were fearful or not of the same thing happening, they had to move on.

I would be a little bit nervous, but yeah, I would go back to work. What are the chances of it happening again at the same place? A lot less likely than it happening somewhere else right?

Plus like the other poster pointed out, the guy would still need the money.

Sure, I would do it, perrygunight. After this kind of tragedy, I imagine that the mall would be the safest that it has ever been, or ever would be. I would wonder if it would be a very profitable day, though. I wonder if people would be more likely to stay away, or to go shopping.

I don't think I would be brave enough to do that but I've never worked in retail and had to deal with random people coming in off the street who might be toting a gun and my life doesn't depend on me earning a living. My parents had a post office years ago where we had an armed robbery on a Saturday and we were open again on the Tuesday (Monday was a public holiday). My parents had to open the store because people needed to come in to collect their pensions and it wouldn't have been fair on them not to be able to get out their money to do shopping for essentials like food!
