I would guess that many gas station clerks work with a fear of being robbed. Of course, if it ever does happen, you'd like to think the company you work for wouldn't turn around and fire you because you had $200 on hand rather than the maximum $50 that you're supposed to.

Talk about bad PR. Firing a guy over $150? Yeah, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that the company hasn't heard the last of it. I actually never knew gas stations usually only hold so little in the register, makes you wonder if the criminals who rob gas stations know that they are risking so much for so little.

File that under better than killed over $200.
