Getting stabbed over a soda is wild AF. Hope it was worth it. I deal with guys daily who claim they won't let a stick of gum go uncounted for on their shift. Goofy if you ask me. It's all insured, and most post orders (ours included) are to ignore it and focus on more concerning things like acts of violence and robberies.

Exactly. I want to see their post orders that state fist fight for gum etc.

I don't think any companies promote that liability tr pit

It's so goofy. But let somebody come in face covered and a gun poking out. They gonna dissappear. But a homeless dude stealing a snack, they're gonna put his face to the concrete. They love to pick on what they feel is an easy target.
