Heres a long story that started about 6 months ago when i was working at our local Walmart in the automotive/fishing/hunting dept. I was an "assosciate" which i basically just stood around and helped people, sold fishing licenses, etc. Great job. Made 9.25 and all the hours i wanted, but i only took part time.
I had worked there about a year, and on this particular night (july 1st) CSM asks me to cover garden center register while robert waters the flowers because the other lady had called out. I think i stood at the register from about 7-830pm texting and drinking soda and checked out a few people, while robert watered the flowers.
During that time period me and robert had both noticed this suspicious looking motherfucker walking around that looked like eazy E in all black with sunglasses and a bandana around his neck. We joked on dude about how ******* suspicious he looked and he just kept wandering around in and out of the store.
About 9pm rolls around me and robert are both at the register posted up. Dude comes up and gets a drink and sits it on the counter, pulls out 6 quarters and hands them to me to pay for the drink. Robert put in $1.50 in the register then after he rung it up and the drawer popped thats when it happened.
Dude pulls gun out of his left pocket, transfers it to his right hand while also cocking it to bring a round in the chamber (you could actually see on the overhead cam the round go into the slide when we looked at the tapes). I immediately recognize the gun as i used to own one. Colt 1911, .45. Seeing the 45 i immediately knew this guy was srs bsns so we best not **** around. Dude says "give me everything."
Robert looks at dude then pushes me out of the way and grabs all the cash outta the register and puts it in a bag. Starts to grab the quarters and etc dudes like "***** i dont want that bullshit, ill shoot your little ***". Dude picks up his drink and dips out. I was fine but a little shook up like wtf? Robert was shaking real bad and like he was about to cry. I walked to the door and the dude left on foot, noone saw him.
We called the store manager, took her over 20 minutes to call the cops because she thought we were joking. Cops get there, question us, yadda yadda. Accuse me of planning this and that and i wrote a statement and had to stay there until 1am (happy because i was on the clock getting OT)
Kept saying i was going to jail tonight blah blah blah, i just said hurry up and do whatever you gotta do bossman so i can go home. I ended up being placed under arrest for about an hour while they talked and i just sat in the chair like a ****, they went through my phone and etc. (Can they do that?) Anyway eventually dude comes in like youre free to go well call you if we need anything. They let robert go shortly after that.

Anyway, seeing the name i go and browse my friends and go through dudes pics. I recognize his pics hes wearing the SAME glasses and hoodie and hat he had when he robbed us. Whats even funnier is dude is updating his facebook but theres warrants out for his arrest.
Whats even crazier is i thought robert was a good dude. Me and him used to chill at work, **** around with subs and **** in the parking lot on break and go fishing together. Seemed like a straight up guy. Come to find out the people doing all the robberies are cousins or friends of his and hes been setting them all up. Guess you cant trust anyone these days. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

On july 2nd i was fired mid-shift, no reason. Store manager said orders came from corporate office, but that he had no issues with me and i could have my job back if i re apply in 6 months. Filed for unemployment, the letter said i was fired for alleged misconduct, but not disqualified. Been getting around 200 a week unemployment since august (took 4 weeks to approve). WINNING.
