"Live Iron: what it's like to Carry CCW"

It's been a long time hasn't it.....?

Well, the reason I didn't write was that I was too busy with a job. That and I felt there were things about it that I couldn't write about with any loyalty while I worked there. But the Geas is off now and I don't owe anybody any loyalty ever again. I may decline to name the store or location, but now I can say what I really felt, without divulging any names, now that I don't work there anymore. Plus now I gotta find a new job, one that uses my talents in Art.

So, you'll be getting a Real sockful, of what it's like (was like) to be a Clerk at a convience store.
You'll get some good, a lot of bad and just an interesting view of what it was like to work there.

Coming soon:
The stories of people throwing change at you.
Dealing with drunk people.
and Calling the cops on people who physically and verbally threaten you.

Oh, and Yeah; you weren't allowed to carry your gun at the job for protection, even though recently a clerk got shot and killed at a local convience store after doing exactly what the robbers asked him to do and they STILL killed him. Scared the crap out of me. Made me want to quit the job immiediately/and/or buy a vest. THANK GOD I don't work there anymore.
