A San Antonio fast-food restaurant cashier laughed at a robbery suspect and told him to get a job if he wanted money during a failed holdup ...
Police said the suspect approached the worker and demanded money, but the cashier laughed and apparently didn't realize the man was trying to hold up the place.
The suspect then allegedly pulled out a box cutter and demanded the cashier's wallet. The employee complied, but had no money in his billfold.

lol.. priceless...
If a thug threatened me with just a box cutter and a bad attitude ...
let the games begin ;-)
This story is a thing of beauty on several levels.
Give the employee a medal for using sarcasm to disarm the robber.
yes.
a thing of beauty
Poor guy will probably get fired for not following company policy to submit/comply.
Never bring a box cutter to a hot fry oil fight.
I’d say technically he DID comply; the guy asked for his wallet and he gave it to him. But to give him a wallet with no money in it?
Pure. Comedy. Gold.
An apt response for all supporters of socialism and entitlements. Want money? Get a job. Of course under Obamunism, this man would be given a medal for his meritorious wealth spreading tactics.
“The suspect then allegedly pulled out a box cutter and demanded the cashier’s wallet”
Wasn’t the Cashier standing in front of a Cash Register? This is laughable, then laughable again.
LOL! Aggravated robbery and the idiot robber didn’t get a dime.
I believe he’s about to meet some close friends in the joint. :)
God Bless Texas!
Robber: "Why should I get a job? You got a job -- but you ain't got no money!"
I once saw an armed robbery where a guy with a finger-in-the-pocket pistol tried to rob the kid at the drive thru window of a restaurant. The kid slammed the glass window shut and started giving him the finger because he thought the glass was bulletproof. So a guy with a fake gun,, was in a standoff with a guy who thought he was behind bulletproof glass.
Sometimes,, you just shake your head in wonder.

As Gabe Suarez would say:
Try this. Set up a Teuller Drill with your training partner and Airsoft Pistols.
The Teuller Drill involves facing an adversary charging at you from 21 feet with a rubber training knife.
The secret to beating the drill is to move as you draw and shoot.
Run it a few times and be honest with yourself about what you saw when you broke the shot.
I’ll bet most of you will not be seeing the same perfect sight picture you see on a piece of paper.
Some may not be seeing anything at all, yet the hits will still be on the training partner’s body. Try it!
I think I'd respond, "That's all you've got?"
Several years ago a lesbian (at first thought to be a male) walked into my mama’s little store and stuck a gun in Mama’s face. The bloodcurdling scream that followed struck sheer terror in the lesbian’s heart. She ran away and was later arrested. That was when it was discovered that the perp was indeed a female. I don’t know what happened to the wanna be robber. This incident was hidden from my knowledge because I was expecting my first child at the time and my family didn’t want to upset me. I still get tickled when I imagine the scenario.
