7. OMG. Son's manager read him the riot act

As to how he handled the active shooter situation at the mall. She told him he should have kicked the customers (3 people) out into the hallway where everybody was running away from the food court. He should not have brought the elderly couple into the store to escape out the back. And he should have locked the store up and done the nightly count out/shut down procedures before leaving through the normal path (which would have taken him into the food court).

He said he listened to her, told her he locked the store, locked the iPads in the safe (there is no cash in the store or drawers that need counting), then evacuated the area following the mall-wide rules when a fire alarm goes off. He also said told her that she probably never had active shooter training in school, college, or a previous job, but that he followed the training put out by the FBI to a “T”.

Thankfully he only plans on working there until he can get an internship.
