an extend-able night stick, looks like the below



getting sick of my managers and staff being assaulted at work because of the drunk cunts that try and steal things.

haha are you serious? Maccas fight back lol tongue.gif
`Nova
we usually do but when there is 2 or 3 of them and one of us they're a bit harder to get.. the gutless prick who hit my manager was walking backwards towards his car yelling "come get me" while the manager was walking towards him last night
trey383
pretty sure they are not legal to have but neither is a knife some clown wants to stab you with. a mate of mine has one that he got from his dojo but they were limited supply and i couldn't get myself one.Dont think they are on ebay,however i have some samurai swords you could buy,they work well against everything but guns.
A simple but dangerous weapon is holden heater hose half filled sand then seal the ends,rumoured to take bark off trees but i haven't tried that.Failing that a nice length of chain will persuade some people to fuck off.
`Nova
yeah spoke to a mate who's a cop, he says they're a no go area.. fucking sucks sad.gif

going to buy a baseball bat and have it under the counter instead
trey383
try the heater hose,you can fold it up and have it in your pocket.
edit, i dont mean leave it in your pocket all the time,just when the shits about to hit the fan then pull it out and BLAM@#$% Batman style.

How about some kickboxing lessons for self defence etc? If you wanna hook up I can help ya. Invaluable but unfortunate you have to defend yourself within your workplace!
TUX-247
u teaching pete? haha yeah kickboxing is awesome, i do muay thai up here in launnie.. good for offensive and defensive situations
`Nova
when physio clears me pete might take you up on that offer
ecko
samurai swords and associated bits are on ebay all the time.
They work very well too. trust me

mine was $11 on ebay delivered and it paid itself off the night someone attempted to break into my housemates car
VU_SS_UTE
Yeah its a no goer with those, my old man works at the prison and even they have to do a training course with the people that make them, as you can pretty well fuck up easily with them if you just go swinging them around.

Interestingly anyone who has done the required course is provided a lawyer by the makers should anyone ever try and take them to court!
MookieMadskillz
Bridges bros Apparently I knew somebody who owns one that is a bouncer
ecko
yeah my old sensai has a few dozen of them...
very fun when your drunk not so much the next day
Felix_TRX
Why don't you get Macca's hire a security guard? Sounds like you need it, out in the Bronx and all!
KE38
sounds like they need it.

which maccas r u at nova?

similar sorta thing happened to a mate at rosny maccas a few times
EVL-076
i am licenced (security) to carry one of them
i dont have one, but yeah, i can carry one if i wanna
MookieMadskillz
I'll come out there and bust caps an any fool who starts dissin my mchood.

But seriously its an employers responsibilty to provide a safe workplace, nobodyin hospiality should have to learn self defence as part of their oh&s training
harolto
im supprised that they dont have security, at the 24 hour one in cairns i went to, they had a secruity guard, he was crap but would have to be better than nothing
-Jake
`Nova
was their restaurant open inside jake, or only the drive thru open?

Lethal, whats it cost to do the security thingo to be licensed for one?
ecko
yeah i could have sworn that all business's running 24hours required security.
bakehouse does.
and i was told the reason the new 24 hours shop near Iso closed is because of that reason
Pie
pfft, baseball bat???

grab a 1 metre length of 400mm2 XLPE cable
`Nova

Pie

Who in hobart is teaching kickboxing?

Also a large maglite torch is an effective legal tool.

you have to be a licensed security guard as a prerequisite...its essentially an add on to the base course...so says a mate...but who knows...
Cerby
what you need is a blackjack. Really small, REALLY HEAVY!!
Basically only like 10/15cm long, fits in a pocket really easily and doesn't have the same stigma as brass knuckles.
Like you hit someone with brass knuckles and everyone goes hey you bastard their brass knuckles you psycho!
Hit someone with a black jack and everyone goes you knocked him out with that? and goes and laughs at the guy!
tweetwoof
good to have something to defend yourselves with nova, but as soon as anyone of your employees or youreself use it the bogan/scum/gold digger will try suing the company no doubt
Cerby
speaking of i can't believe an employee assaulted at work hasn't sued!
I know if i worked at a business located in known scumbag territory which didn't do anything about assaults on employees and then i got assaulted I would being suing for as much as i could get.

Maccas should just stop serving late and left the little shit stains suffer tongue.gif

sue for what? i had a little over 6 months off on full pay to get my arm fixed... even though its still not fixed properly.. and everything has been covered under workers comp
Cerby
a business is legally required to provide as safe workplace. If there is a history of assaults and nothing serious has been done about it then they are Extremely liable since that is technically negligence. Even if they give you time off and sick pay and shit if they haven't put on security or changed the rules regarding when you lock up that is negligence.
It's like the first thing in OH & S 101 tongue.gif

I mean don't get me wrong, i think its awesome that they are looking after you especially if your happy with the way they are treating you. Just imagine if it happened in america! They'd be sued first thing next morning
