Bad Day

Some days you don't wanna go to work... well some gas station employees in South Bend feel the same. From the South Bend Tribune:

Carmen Pittman, manager of McClure Oil on Edison Road, said her gas station usually gets robbed about twice a year.

On Tuesday, it was robbed twice in one day.

The store was robbed at gunpoint early in the morning and then again late at night, according to police reports. Both robbers left the store with an undisclosed amount of cash.
...
The same clerk was working in the store during the robberies.


Good news for the unlucky employee is that:

"He's a very dependable employee," she said. "I feel bad for him. But he gets to go on vacation next weekend, so that will be good for him."
