Today wasn't so good. I'm actually more shaken up today than I was yesterday. The company's insurance company called today and I had to recount everything again. I also called up my employee, the male, and he is having a real hard time. He can't sleep because of nightmares and he's having continuous headaches. He told me not to think it was my fault because there was nothing I could've done to prevent it. The girl is doing just fine. She actually went back to the restaraunt today to see how everyone else was doing. I actually got some sleep last night with the help of medication. Any way I thought I'd keep you posted.

Again I really want to thank you guys for all of the suggestions and comfort. I've been trying to keep my mind off from everything today, but it doesn't just go away. The girl is doing fine. The police said that head wounds usually bleed a lot and look much worse than they really are. She's at home now and resting with her family. She had quite a few stiches. She just needs some time to talk it all out. The other guy refused treatment when the incident happened. I think he was in shock still. The police detective said he was lucky that the second blow didn't kill him because his head was on the concrete when they hit him again. He ended up going to the hospital the next morning. They put eight staples in his head and said that they had done nerve damage to the back of his head. I feel a little better after talking this out with you guys, but I know it's going to be a long road to try and get past this whole thing. The paper this morning and the news showed the composite sketch that the officer drew from my description. It kinda creeped me out to see it again. The news made it sound as though no one was hurt. They made the three guys sound like idiots though because they didn't get any money. I think that I didn't get hit because the guy with the mask knew me. I didn't put my head down or anything I stared right at him trying to see if I could recognize anything under the mask. The bad part is is that I think the guy in the mask was someone that currently works at the restaraunt. I'll never be able to look at him the same again. This guy is under house arrest in a state nearby and earlier that night I hadn't been able to get a hold of him when I called him for help because we were short handed. I figured no big deal. The next morning he never showed up for work. He called late that afternoon and said that something had happened to him the night before, but he couldn't discuss it over the phone. This morning he showed up for work and asked my boss what had happened on Friday night. Kinda suspicious huh?...My boss said, "I don't know what don't you tell us." The guy said that his parole officer said something happened at the restaraunt on Friday night. This guy I considered a nice guy for the most part even almost as a friend. I always felt that people needed a second chance so if any one came in looking for a job on furlough from prison I would tell them they could work, but that they needed to prove themselves. I'll never be able to do that again. If it was him and he gets caught it's his third felony which means he'll recieve life in prison. That bothers me a little considering I could probably give testimony that would incriminate him. Any way I'll talk to you guys later.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I had to go back there last night with a detective to recreate what happened for him with the lighting the way it was and everything. It was hard. I really didn't want to go, but I know it will help the investigation. The worst part was seeing some of the bloodstains that couldn't come out of the ground. Blood splattered on the dumpster and still in the concrete. It wasn't very pleasant. I'm an easy going guy, but am not small. I feel guilty for not trying to do anything. I made a move once and realized there were two of them and at least one baseball bat so I backed off. I also feel guilty because I wasn't hurt and my two employees were. I just recently got a new apartment so I will be moving soon. That'll ease my mind a little bit. But I'm back to work on Wednesday all day and night so I think I'll be shaken up a little bit come closing time. One good thing is that the company FINALLY realized that it was time to get video cameras. They've been talking about it for three years and it took this to get them. I wished they had them a few days ago. Thanks again.

Hello all. I really need to talk and try to get some things out. I am one of the managers at a local fast food restaraunt. We live in a quiet town and on Friday night after one in the morning one of my employees and I went outside to take out the trash. A few seconds later three men came running up and beat my employee with a baseball bat knocking him to the ground. After he fell they hit him again in the head and wound up to hit me. He was aiming at my face and for some unknown reason he stopped. One of the guys ran inside the building and a few seconds later came out. I got a really good look at him. Enough to get a good composite artist a sketch to work with. The guy that ran out of the building said there was no money in the drawers and that the safe was locked so they all took off running. My employee and I ran inside because we had another worker in there. This girl is not all there in the head. She would never hurt anything and she's a very kind hearted person. I ran to the office to see if she was ok and she had shut and locked the door. I looked through the window and she was holding her head and screaming. Blood was splattered all over the walls and the floor on the desk and the chairs and blood was streaming down her face. Of all the people to hurt...I really wish it had been me instead of her instead of both of them for that matter. We called the police and I spent two hours with them giving descriptions. One of the men had a stocking over his face and looked like he was wearing a uniform from our work. I have a really bad feeling that I know who he was and that really bothers me. Everyone there knows where I live and I gave a good description of one of the guys. I don't want them to hurt my family. The hardest part for me was cleaning up the girl's blood after everything was said and done. It took some time and I just kept thinking over and over about how horrified she must've been. I ended up going to the emergency room to see her that night and I was glad that I did. Nobody was there with her as of yet so I was eventually able to get her to start joking and laughing and getting her mind of from the whole thing. I haven't slept in two days now well this morning around seven I finally dozed off and slept for five hours. Any way I just need to talk and try to get through this so I can go back to work. Thanks for listening.

Celia,
They haven't told me exactly where I'll be stationed yet. Just that I'm guaranteed a station in Germany. If I get a chance at boot, I highly doubt it, but if I do I'll leave a quick message on the board to let everyone know how it's going.

Thanks for all of the words or encouragement. If I ever get a chance to get online I'll leave a few posts to let you all know how it's going. In the meantime I'll try and get my dad to leave a few posts for me. Again thanks for all the support and encouragement. It's websites like this and people like you that helped me to make it through the hard years after leaving the Watchtower.
