| Robbery warning: No. 5 + Cambie (Richmond)
I work at Panago and just got robbed tonight...
At 10:45pm 2 men dressed in black with full ski masks and metal rods came in and took the money out of our pockets. However, they were not smart enough to open up the till or the safe.
Lately there's been more and more drunk/high/strung out people haning around that area. So I want to let you know so can be careful and warn your friends. Lock the doors and be careful of who you let into the store.

Wow. Sorry to hear it, Waddy. What a bunch of cocksuckers. At least the store is insured but you as employees aren't.

and I'm a 5"3 female...so I'd surrender to just about anything
El Bastardo: yes the store is insured but the owner said that the premium/deductible will be way too high if he claims anything...so i guess that sucks for everyone...

why would you put your life in danger, for a few bucks? that's stupid..adding the fact that, if they did open the till, that's the owners problem..not yours..especially not one where you should risk your life to save..

I think it's most accurate to say #5 and Cambie (major intersection)

JSALES: Yes it's on thorpe...but I want to let all the stores in that area know...
like subway, domino's, etc
And no we don't have a buzzer...but from now on I'm going to keep the door locked..
I think I did the right thing...just do as they say and don't worry about the money...I doubt robbers would bother to hurt you if you just handed over the cash
Don't think they were crackheads...or at least they didn't act like it.....they were definately inexperienced and stupid...since they did not go for the till or the safe...
BTW the cops got there pretty fast...within 2 minutes of dialing 911...2 cops cars showed up with a dog....

it's not just one guy, it was two. I would understand if the workers outnumbered the perp, but it's two guys plus weapons.
not worth it for a few $$
