News Scuba-clad man robs Disney Springs restaurant, swims away

I was a restaurant manager for many years. Most companies have security systems in place like safe codes that will open the door and alert the police, or hidden switches. You are told to do nothing more than that, even the company you work for will tell you your life isn't worth the $60k salary you are making and the probably less than $5k they are going to get away with.

That sounds all well and good, and then it happens, and then the adrenalin dump happens, and next thing you know you are tackling a guy in the parking lot and then chasing him down the middle of the street.

And then by doing so your company unfortunately fires you for going against company policy. My DS had an employee who was working as security at the door who went out into the parking lot to go after a shoplifter. He got a call from HR telling him that he was to suspend the employee. DS was able to save the guys job with a reprimand.

Been there, done that. Well I was not up for termination, I just got told "you really should not have done that." Then I got asked to go to court as a witness.
