I want to quit because I’m scared, but I’m scared to quit…

Hello, this is my first time making a post here, but I've been a long time “lurker”, I've been working part time at McDonald's, the pay is as expected, though I don't mind the job itself even though it's very hard for me as I'm small and not very strong physically but lately, I want to quit, because I'm scared. Every day something dangerous happens, two customers fighting today, a guy with a knife the next, someone mildly attacking a member of the staff, it always narrowly escapes me but until when? There are teens that hate me because the rules says I'm not allowed to let them vape so I report them. They literally growl at me when they pass by me (which I used to find funny) but then one of them straight up threaten to stab me today. I think they're not serious, I mean they're just…

I think they're not serious, I mean they're just some teens but I'm scared, I don't want to risk it. I'm not paid nearly enough to endanger my life, even if it's a 1% chance, I got the vaccine 3 times out of fear of this 1% so why should I ignore it now? I ain't got a second me if something goes wrong. I want to quit but I'm sure the people at Job Seekers are going to cut my allowance which helps me pay my exorbitant rent. I don't want to risk getting stabbed by a drugged out teen but I don't want to be homeless either… I just…really need some wisdom right now.

Sorry if it looks like a mess of a post, it's late at night and it's been a long and stressful day.
