That demand proved difficult for the clerk to comply with, since the drawer was assigned to a different employee. Tha man told him to cancel the sale, but the clerk told him that wouldn't open the drawer either. 

Finally, the robber told the clerk to open the drive through cash drawer, which the clerk did, handing the cash tray to the man. The robber took about $150 in cash from the drawer.
