If someone robs you, hand over the money without resistance. Fm is right, no job is worth risking your life for. If there is concern about your personal safety, fm is also right that the best self-defense measure you can take is having a plan to get away.
Definitely don't try to defend yourself with a knife; as I said in the other thread, unless you have real training, you are putting yourself in incredible danger by pulling a knife. I also wouldn't bother with stun guns, unless you are willing to shell out the high prices for a real TASER. Most of the cheap ones are not particularly effective. Pepper spray is your best bet if you must carry a weapon of some type. Make sure it's the stream type, not the fog type; stream sprays have better range and won't blow back on you. Three-in-one sprays are a good bet. Remember, after you spray the guy, your next step should be to get the hell out of the area as fast as possible; this is a measure to save yourself from potential injury during the course of a robbery, not necessarily to prevent the robbery itself or subdue/stop/incapacitate the criminal.
