don't try to be a hero during a robery(if you are the security guard!)
remember, the don't want to hurt no one. They are there for the bank's money, not your money. Your money is insured by the federal government, you're not gonna lose a dime. Think of your families, don't risk your life. Don't try and be a hero.

yeah but what if youre in line waiting to deposit some cash? let say 5grand or some inconceivable number. that's fair game to the bandits. also if you get to the window to deposit, if the bandits stick you up, im sure the tellers are trained to delay on the actual deposit so that it won't technically be held liable by the bank yet. you know?

The bank wouldn't be liable for it either way. Besides, if someone sees a gun, they're going to get to the ground based on common sense, they're not going to think "oh I should get to the ground now so this guy can't deposit his $5k."

Whatever you do, don't NOT show up to work strung out on junk. Or wait, maybe it's don't show up strung out on junk. I don't remember. Anyway, this is pretty critical.

Really? In the old movies, they would always ask for customers' wallets, watches, jewels, etc.
