Can I have access to security video of myself as an employee?
About a year ago, I was attacked by a woman when asking for her receipt, as the door greeter it was my job. They will not let me have a copy. Is this legal?

Unless this action violates the terms of a union agreement or employment contract, it is legal. The fact is that in an "at will" work relationship, an employer can set the conditions of work much as it sees fit. This includes whether or not to supply a worker with a copy of store security videos, no matter what the reason.
