Simple Survival Steps

To make the best of a bad situation, think along the following lines:

  • My money is insured, the only thing at risk is my safety 
  • Let the guy have what he wants, the sooner he gets it the sooner he’ll go away
  • He’s probably done this before or he’ll do it again – the more often he does it the better his chances of getting caught

Although it may be difficult to control your anger in such a situation (after all, you have to work for a living don’t you?), the best thing is to just get the robber out of there so that everybody is safe. Desperation leads to bank robberies, and you don’t want to mess with a desperate and scared person.
