I have been Robbed at Gun point, and robbed one other time when I worked for Circle K. I will NEVER work there again, because they do not do anything for the Employees. I was let go a yr. ago the last time I was robbed, with no compensation, etc. I refuse to ever give a Good rating about working there. I have also had my Purse stolen and had $250 disappear from my Wallet... and never was able to find the Wallet again, even though I think I knew who took it.

Oh my goodness. I am glad that you were okay after those robberies. The most important thing is that you did not get hurt or even worse. Sounds like a bad place to work. I have never been robbed before and hope I never too. We can never be too careful now a days.

Well, Convenience stores do not pay well either. So for me, I am glad to no longer work for them, and have to subject myself to things like this. It is not a Fun place to work at as you are always under undue stress anyways it always seemed.

I guess I am one of the lucky ones **knocking on wood**. I have never been robbed. I feel for you having to go through those experiences and I am glad you survived it. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us.

I have never been robbed at gunpoint and can't imagine how terrifying that must be. I was robbed a long time ago when someone broke into my apartment. Even though I wasn't directly threatened I was scared to live there after that, just knowing someone could get in when I wasn't there.

That is so terrible, I can't beleive your job acted that way, and it is terrible you had to go through such a thing, when I was in high school are house was robbed, and just as I was coming in from school no less, they got alot of things, but I must have scared them off, because they left the t.v by the back door as they ran off.

I have not been robbed before but one of my friend encountered this experience. A guy was asking her for the time and she took out her handphone and that was when she was robbed of her handphones. There was a slight struggle between them but the most unacceptable thing was that there were passerbys and even bystanders and not even a single soul came forward to help.

Sorry to hear that happened to you. People tried to rob me, but I was always a good fighter knocked the wind out of them and walked away, The only people who have sucessfully robbed me is my own family members my younger sister and her friends whom I live with. Otherwise I am pretty good at holding my own.. and most strangers will leave me alone.
