the other day while at work i was robbed at gunpoint.
had a gun stuck to my face and then chest being told to empty the register and dont do anything stupid...that i wasnt moving fast enough...that i have till 3 or "i am going to f'ing kill you"...
i had to customers in the store and was worried for my life as well as theirs...
called the police after the incident and gave them all the info i could.
at my job (overnight shift at a big corporate drug store/pharmacy) there is no panic button, or security. store is not in the best of areas either.
i had no way to get in contact with my manager, or district. and had to stay in the store for an additional 2 hours to wait for somebody to come in while feeling shaken.
the next day went to the doctors due to not being to sleep rest nor think straight. the doctor and mental health worker both agreed that im suffering from acute stress disorder and should not return back to my job for a week minimum and prescribed me ativan for my nerves. brought the note to work following the visit to the doctor.
the next day i get a phone call saying lost prevention wants to ask me questions bout the robbery. i went in under the impression i was going in to help, but when the LP officer and his partner got me in the office they started to accuse me out right.
asked me to be honest with them and i told them from time to time i took a drink and a snack with the intention to pay in the morning but couldve forgot.
he then continued to ask me questions but not show any evidence. at one point i felt like i was going to pass out from lack of sleep due to the robbery, stress disorder due to the robbery, and the ativan. told them this and he then asked me "and whys that?" implying i had something to hide. asked if i was addicted to anything. this went on for 2 hours, at this point i couldnt grasp what was going on, what was being said. he told me to sign a few papers stating i took a few drinks here and there saying it'll show i was being honest. then had me sign a few more papers that i dont recall cause i wasnt in the right frame of mind due to trauma, stress, medication.
now my job is endanger.
do i have a case for...
1) being put into a dangerous situation
-no security
-no alarm or panic button
-no way to get in contact with management
2) mental stress
-from robbery
-being accused and brought in under one thing but then attacked mentaly by LP
-having LP take advantage of my present state
any info/help will be highly appreciated
ps: i've been with the company 5years, never had a problem. LP said they been watching me since july2007, yet there has been numerous hires since 2007 and just as quickly they have been fired, but nothing bout me
