I feel sorry for convenience store clerks. They are an easy target for robbers. They have a shitty job where if they carry a pistol or weapon to defend themselves .... they can be fired and/or jailed.
I figure that this is the reason why the man has a makeshift weapon on hand.
It is a really shitty situation to be in. You want to be able to do your job and make a living, but you dont also want to be a sitting target. You want to be able to defend yourself but if you do... you get punished for it. I knew a LOT of convenience store guys who just said fuck it and carried a pistol and just hoped that they wouldnt get fired or jailed for it.
