“Above the shop floor, in the cash office, Prince Boateng is not so forthcoming. He is waiting anxiously for the return of a ‘Charley run’, in which staff wearing protective glasses ‘in case someone wants to spray their eyes with pepper spray – or perfume’ push a metal safe around the store to collect the takings from every till.” — On the madness of working at TopShop on December 15th, from the London Times.

They wear the protective glasses when they're collecting cash from the tills year round. I never knew the reason behind it until now though...
