Yes it is a scary world right now and I'm afraid it will probably get worse. Glad everyone is ok, although I'm sure they are all shook up right now.

Sorry to hear it but glad that everyone is OK. I heard a bank in L.A. got robbed earlier this week (or last) by three men with weapons and they pistol whipped one of the employees because no one would open the vault, sent him to the hospital. My daughter was robbed a couple of years ago, that was really scary and it took her awhile to get over it even though he didn't seem to have a weapon. Hope that everyone there gets over their anxiety quickly pjs and I hope they catch the guy (or girl)!!

PJS, we had one branch that was robbed 3x in 2 years, it was very traumatic on the branch staff. We provided counseling, but it still is a shock and is very scary for everyone.

Glad everyone is physically ok, hope the emotional/mental wounds aren't deep.

So glad no one was hurt! I think everyone's EAP will be working overtime for a while with the seeming increase in robberies.

I was terrified being in a branch. That only lasted for a few months. I like being in an Admin building where there are no customers!

PJS - was it a one-on-one or a take-down?
Glad that everyone is ok. It's a tough time to be in banking.

I'm afraid it will.
It's a good time for branch staff to review their robbery procedures, and suspect description skills.

Not to make light of your situation but I heard something on the news this morning that made me laugh. A guy tried to rob a bank in PA and the teller fainted so he went to the next two tellers and they didnt' have any money yet because the bank just opened. He got mad and left and said something about complaining to management. I think they caught him.

Glad to hear that no one was injured, pjs. All of us need to be alert and aware that people take desperate measures in desperate times. Will be saying a prayer for your folks!
