That sucks ass... and yeah, it'll happen anywhere.
I was workin at the walmart in cartersville on 3rd shift. We got paid wednesday night (thrusday morning) and I just had them cash my check so I could go and get something to eat. While I was walking out to my car I was jumped by 2 guys. One of them just tackled my ass and the other kicked me in the head. Stole my wallet and all of my change out of my pocket. I was so pissed. And hurting for a few days.
