Today, a man tried to rob the winery I worked at by knife-point. I managed to scare him off by throwing a bottle of wine at him. My boss fired me because I broke a $25 bottle of wine. FML

it was either that $25 bottle of wine or all the money in the cash register, which is most likely a lot more than that. It's too bad your boss is a total knucklehead that lacks common sense. if anything, he could have at least tried to make you pay for that wine bottle before firing you.

He must have been drunk. You know what they say never trust a skinny chef, and never trust a sober sommelier.

Every time I saw sober, I read somber. FML

Too bad you can't hunt down the robber and inform him that he is good to go to rob the store again since apparently your boss doesn't give a rat's ass either way.

Rob the store when only he's in, but 1. wear a mask, 2. make sure he doesnt have a weapon 3. wear protection, in case he throws a bottle at you.

Your former boss is a douche. Next time, let the robber take the money. It's not worth getting injured or killed. Sorry OP:(

I'm thinking it was an inside job and he's pissed off you interfered

I think he he fired you because you put everybody in greater risk, what if he didn't get scared by the bottle, then shot you and your coworkera instead?

Wouldn't have been shot because he was held by knife point...

Ballistic knife is capable of shooting you at knifepoint. So Op could have been shot. Just a thought.

Ballistic knives exist. You're the only one who brought up FPS games

Hey man don't be sad be grateful you are not a dumbass like your boss. Think... If you continued to work in a place with a moronic boss... You might suffer in future because he'd most probably trade you in for a mars bar or something. Would you want that? No... Therefore be grateful and get on with life... Ahhh enlightenment

Should have thrown a cheaper bottle of wine at him.
