Wow, it was creepy enough when I came back to my apartment and found it had been robbed. I can't even begin to imagine if the intruder had still been there.

According to what I've found, Canadian gas is around (not exact, just approx) $4.54 a US gallon (in US dollars).
Evil Queen, I haven't been here long, but you're one of the best posters I've seen, I'm glad you're still around and kicking.

Hah! gas here is just $3.69 a gallon.
On Topic. I don't post very much here either. But I wanted to say I really know what you are going through. I made it through almost 5 years working in gas stations with out getting robbed. Then BAM twice in two weeks. The first guy did have a gun, and the second sort of jumped onto the counter shoved me back and grabbed some money from drawer. Both were caught. The first guy with gun is enjoying 25 years for his $87. Which he only got to keep for about 10 minutes since I got the his plates, and as luck would have it there was a patrol car just down the road.The second is going up for 15 for the $40 he got.

EvilQueen, I'm glad you're ok. Take it easy on yourself the next few days, got that? After my apartment was broken into I got some anti-anxiety meds (already had a dr's appointment for unrelated back pain before the theft). Never took them, but it made me feel better to know that I had them if I needed them! Just a thought of what worked for me.
Most of all, I'm glad you're ok. (That deserves saying twice!)

I wasn't working the night someone had jumped our desk & robbed us. The other lady I worked with at the time was on, alone. She had gone upstairs to help guests & that. She had locked doors behind her, just didn't lock the drawers. She didn't realize we had been robbed until she went to close out her shift. She was terribly freaked out, and her mind ran away with her. She realized that the perp could have been hiding in back still.
I felt really bad for her. Luckily we have cameras, and there he was jumping the counter & taking the money. It had been a guy who as sitting in the lobby "waiting for a cab". He had asked her for change for a $5, and she had made the mistake of needing to open both drawers looking for ones. So, he knew both drawers contained money. Same guy also robbed The Fairfield Inn that night, similar tactics.
I am sorry that happened to you. I appreciate you tried to run the bastard down, even if you realized how crazy that was!When it comes to getting things done, we need fewer architects and more bricklayers. ---Colleen C. Barrett---
