its not like the guy was chasing after the robber inside the bank, after the roober left with the stolen money then the teller went after him at his own risk and got fired .

Severl years ago in this area there was a bank robber that robbed four banks. In one of the banks he had all the emplyees lay flat on the stomachs. This included a pregnant lady who was in her last trimaster. She didn't lay flat, she turned over with her abdomen facing the floor giving plenty of room for her unborn child. This stress could have very well put her in early labor. THANKFULLY she was examined at the ER and there was no harn to the fetus. The stress that that jerk put her and her co-workers thru is unimaginable. The greedy jerk robbers could care less about the people. It's all about greed and power. Thankfully he was caught and put in federal prison for I hope the rest of his pitiful life.

Donamorri02:51 AMAug 03 2009Teller or any other bank employess shouldnt try to be heros they can get themselves or other epople killed for their stupidity. GUESS THE SAME GOES FOR COPS AND FIREFIGHTERS AS WELL RIGHT? (IT'S PRETTY STUPID TO RUN INTO A BURNING BUILDING TO RESCUE SOMEONE OR TRY TO STOP AN ARMED CRIMINAL IF YOU ASK ME)

I agree with NXSTON08... he should be a cop. He is an admitted 'adrenaline junkie'.

Chasing a robber may put other lives at risk in the the robber's efforts to escape. This guy is a fruit cake. Not saying he deserves to be fired but I think that the banks rules in this manner are in place to protect its employees. SO WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIM CHASING HIM AND THE COPS CHASING HIM? A BADGE? HERE IS WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF HE HAD NOT CHASED HIM DOWN...THE ROBBER (IF HE HAD A VEHICLE) WOULD HAVE SPED AWAY...THE POLICE (AS POLICY) WOULD'VE GIVEN CHASE AND PUT EVEN MORE LIVES AT RISK...OH AS FOR THE BURNING BUILDING THING...IT WOULD HAVE PUT FIREFIGHTERS LIFE'S AT RISK TO GO IN AFTER THE PERSON. BUT THAT IS WHAT MAKES A "HERO" THE SELFLESS ACT AT PUTTING ONE'S LIFE AT RISK FOR THE SAKE OF OTHERS

He broke a company rule set in place not only for his own safety, but that of the customers. If he enjoys chasing after criminals as much as this story indicates (by his own admission) maybe he should become a cop rather than a bank teller anyhow.
