One thing I did learn there was just how stupid people are. We had $30K worth of cigarettes behind the counter unlocked all the time. Anyone could easily have come up and robbed us in couple minutes throwing all those in the back of a van (and we were instructed by corporate to help them in any way we could - never resist. But instead they would come in and demand the $50 we had in the cash register - LOL!
Guess they didnt smoke and thought selling them was too much work.
