But they have the discretion to enforce it. If they want a no weapons policy at work, that is their right. But in this situation, where the pharmacist had to choose between life and death, he chose correctly. Walgreens did NOT have to fire him. If CVS were to do this, I would express the same outrage.

Re: Walgreens Pharmacist Gets Fired for Defending...

Has anyone asked CVS what their policy is? I suspect if this had happened in a CVS, we'd be reading essentially the same story. Most of the big chain stores have the same policy that if you resist a robbery, you'll get fired. I've seen it in the news before, especially with pizza drivers.
