Of course in this sort of society no one is stealing gas in the first place, so the attendant has no reason to intervene.

- tshaddox 3y agoYeah, if we're dismissing the possibility of direct physical violence with the wave of a hand, why not wave the hand a second time and dismiss the possibility of gasoline theft?
- xp84 3y agoA robbery there would go something like: (Note: for some reason this seems to work best in a New Zealand accent) “Listen up, sir. I intend to steal the contents of that till. Be a good pal and hand it over.” “I’m afraid not. As you know, I’m duty-bound to protect this till, and I’m not about to hand it over to you.” “I’m afraid I must insist. I intend to take it, all of it. Don’t make this uncomfortable. I don’t want to use harsh language, but I’m serious.” “I’m sorry, but it’s simply out of the question. There’s policies and regulations. I can’t just give this money out to you. If we did that, do you know how many people would be in here robbing us every day? There wouldn’t really be a gas station at all, would there? May as well shut the whole thing down then.” sigh “No, I’m sorry. I should have expected you weren’t about to give me the cash. I’ll leave. Obviously I’m not about to use physical force, and it’s clear you’re not budging on this one.”
