We have actually had a customer get physical with one of our employees. This was a while ago, my assistant manager(lets call him mitch)at the time was the one who had opened.
He was explaining to a customer that they were outside of the 30 days and could not exchange the phone... now my mitch was this little white guy no more than maybe a buck thirty and possibly 5'7, small guy. Now the cust was a large guy.
Long story short after some heated words the man reached over the kiosk and grabbed mitch by the neck tie and proceeded to pull him over the counter. Mitch pulled back and released himself.

We sell cricket and boost at my carry out. Some fat man didn't like the price and spit on my friend and punched him in the dick. We lowered the price. In the hood we don't have security. You just need a gun. Sometimes you just pull it out and you tell them the price. If you need a few more bucks for that pop you raise the price.
