Robert, here's another fine example of why you bring half the shit you
receive upon yourself.
I know a 7-Eleven store up on Gun Hill Road in the Bronx that shuts down
about every six months or so for a year or so at a time. Why? Not because
they can't find workers to work the store, plenty do. It's because 3 out of
four of them end up dead, shot at gunpoint. 7-Eleven fears for others that
might/will end in the same fate. Things have changed since you last
physically installed alarms in the field/city. For one thing....we no longer
use horse and buggies, and window foil is something we break out for
Halloween. We still use them striker bars though...
