    I've been doing security for 14 years. I've caught people breaking into cars and houses, people have ran up on me, witnessed attempted suicides, found people dead, but NOT ONCE, have I ever been physically assaulted. I know my role, OBSERVE AND REPORT, they don't pay me enough to do anything extra. As a security manager I've told my staff the same thing cus I ain't risking my life for a company who gon replace me at the drop of a hat 🙅🏾‍♂️

      @@TomikaKelly it might surprise you but a lot of the bad things I've experienced as security happened with the retirement community. They regular apartments (not a nursing home), you just gotta be at least 55 to live there. It's 95% white folks and they be fist fighting over women, giving each other std's and all. I witnessed the police use his handcuffs as brass knuckles on somebody daughter. I stopped two suicide attempts, walked in on a botched unsuccessful attempt, found completed attempts, caught break ins and yelled from a DISTANCE 😆, all kinda stuff going on with these older folks. It taught me to appreciate the elders in my family and talk to em often cus they might be lonely & you never know what else they going through.

    Back in the day, as a bank teller, a guy walked up to my window, handed me a note that instructed me to hand over the "BANKS MONEY". I understood the assignment and did as I was instructed, some idiot supervisor had the nerve to ask me, "why did you give him the money?" My response, "first off, that money is insured and more importantly, the big black gun he had pointed at my chest, told me to follow his exact orders".

    I worked at Wal-Mart years ago as a cashier. Loved it because I could playfully talk trash to folks all day. Around Christmas time, I had an overly friendly guy come through with 2 buggies full of gifts and toys. As I'm scanning and chopping it up, I noticed the prices of the items were ridiculously low. That coupled with the facts that he insisted on grabbing each item before I finished scanning it AND him wanting to bag his own stuff let me know he was changing prices. I had pressed a button for a manager to come help early on in the transaction because one thing wouldn't scan. The manager never showed up. The sensor beeped on his way out, but no one stopped him because he looked like Ted Bundy. Kind face and...pale colored. The manager came over and asked me what I had needed earlier. I told her this man was stealing and carried on with my day. She was so mad about me not stopping him that she wrote me up. I went to her boss which resulted in them reviewing the tape which showed my manager ignoring my call on her device when it all happened. SHE got written up. Fun times. But these jobs be havin us messed up!!

    This happened to me when I worked at the neighborhood convenience store as a teenager! I knew our neighborhood crackhead was stealing beers when he would come in the store with an ankle length leather coat on in July! Usually I never said anything because he was usually a little feisty when he was high! Until one day the store was full of customers and he thought he was gonna march past all of us at the counter with that super fly coat on in July, in 102 degree weather in the hot ass south! This particular day I had to stop him because those beer bottles was clinking together so hard that he sounded like a whole ass wind chime! I was like see, u go too far! You tryna make me look bad! Go put them folks beer right back where you found them! He just looked at me and laughed and said “ok”…and he went and unloaded an entire 6pk from his pocket! He even put them back in the right spot in the cooler! Then he stopped by long enough to say “See ya tomorrow” before he left the store, like stealing beer was his actual job! 😂

I looked at him for a second, confused, and he said to me "this ain't your battle". I said "it sure ain't" and casually walked back to the front dest and told my relief to call 911, while he took the atm machine out a side door. I never even looked to see where he was driving.

Most police officers aren’t paid enough to have their lives on the line so a minimum wage security job to be at risk and unrewarded is BS.

Don’t worry, I’ll get the cashier to finish ringing you up.” When the regular sticky fingered customers saw her at the door, they would go to the other side. Walmart actually gave her a bonus check for saving potentially lost revenue. She lasted six months, then quit from aggravation because of all the stealing. Remember this is the same mom that would threaten to drop us off at the police station herself if we dared bring something into the house that we didn’t pay for.

His security collegue came to help, in the struggle to get the knife away from the thief & prevent themselves from being stabbed the knife went into the thief side & he bled out at the scene. Those 2 security guards are now in jail for murder. The shop owners fired the whole security company & the security company lied saying they the guys had fake ID & security papers to get themselves out if liability. And now most ppl in my neighborhood is supporting the death thief & calling the guards murderers. Nah they definitely did not get paid enough for this kinda mess.

    First of all, about the “you think you better than me?” Yes. I do b**** 😂😂😂 Now, I work nights as a guard. Retail guard jobs are hard. You do have to actually work. Here’s the mistake he made. Once the thief drops whatever they stole grab it and return it to the store. I’m not swinging OR getting swung at for nobody period. And also, if you want a “do nothing job” work at a warehouse or construction site. I work at a high-end building (they’re gentrifying so it’s in the hood). I politely tell people they can’t loiter and go back to my nice, comfortable, luxury desk. If they don’t comply, the police station is literally around the corner. The job pays 50K a year. Don’t sleep on security. Just be thoughtful about how you go about it.

We often deal with psychotic entitled people and we can even get in trouble for putting our hands on them while we have coworkers that will turn the other cheek when they see us in trouble. Sometimes it's just not worth going home with a headache from them or going to the hospital, while dying, because of them.
