I had to go to court a lot. there were times when I would go to work, get off at 7 am, go straight home, get ready for court, go there (and nothing is ever on time when you are going to court) testify and get home after noon. I'd be so wound up from running around and testifying in court, I couldn't fall asleep. so I would stay up and go back to work at 11 pm.
I liked the job itself, but all the secondary bullshit was too much. I also developed a hatred for drunk asses. I quit just in time too. The same store had another armed robber hold the place up last month.
here's the security video of the the guy that robbed me...
the 3 guys that were in on the robbery got busted because they logged in to youtube and watched this video hundreds of times. the gunman got 18 years for kidnapping and robbery. but he is serving the sentences concurrently so it amounts to 7 years.

Wow, that sounds like being a bartender except without all the fun perks and decent money that come with being a bartender.
