I wouldn’t take the overtime.
The fact that Bryan was forced down this spiral of blood, guts, and tears just because he thought he could make a bit more cash is simultaneously the most realistic and tragic aspect of the new Resident Evil movie.
And honestly, I get it. Who doesn’t need a bit of extra money right now? So if my hands were really tied and I didn’t have any choice about taking the package into Raccoon City, here’s what I’d really do differently.

Don’t call and drive. Even if your girlfriend’s angry at you, jeopardising your safety on an icy road is never the answer.
I wouldn’t have thrown the ladder at the dog because that’s not nice. Although I also wouldn’t get that close to it.
Getting a snack is a good shout although I’d miss out the milk as I’m lactose intolerant.
No way in hell I’d open the door in the RV.
I’d have snatched those car keys so fast.
In the interest of preserving bullets, I’d have taken a close range shot at the padlock first.
Take the stairs, man. Yes, I would have complained about it the whole way up, but the elevator is out of order for a reason.
I would like to think that I’d tell the scientists I was infected and hopefully reason with them to give me the antidote, but in all honestly I probably would have gone out like Bryan.
But the main difference between Bryan and I (other than taking the overtime), would be that I would not have followed that lady into the woods. I know that’s bad after hitting her with my car, and I would call for help. But come on: anyone who just walks off a hit like that is not alright and should not be buckled into the passenger seat next to you. That’s scary movie rule number one.
