Watched all of your early videos, convinced me to get into armed security and just recently finished the process. Hope there are many more videos to come man, genuinely enjoy them.
Yeah I get that it's going to be one of the hard part's about going back to day shift but trying to sleep everyday during the day it's so difficult and then on my off days trying to sleep at night only to go back to days will drive a person crazy
I just quit my security job for Sunstates. My manager or "captain" threatened to fire me on site. I worked 3rd only on weekends and was never trained once at the site. While I was there the captain never worked alongside me. The first time she worked with me was when she did a spot check. Then noticed I done something wrong and threatened my job over it. Hopefully this gives you a good video idea 💡 I personally don't believe managers threatening your job as a way to get you moving is necessary. In my case this was the first time i was disciplined and the first time i worked with her. Anyways thanks! For the updates. I live in North Carolina aswell.. around Winston Salem area.
@@defcon3security782 your right though, sometimes we just gotta go for it and not think too much, or else I'll never move forward lol. I was on cruise control for most of the pandemic but its coming to a point were I think I need a change of scene and upgrade and the only way up is to put myself out there! :) Thanks, Hope to see you posting more videos again! :)
Stay strong My brother it gets better as time passes but! I work graveyard a few days a week and It sucks but looking to find a better job here in Los Angeles California! But anyway God bless and take care
I know exactly what you mean bro right now it's 1:00 in the morning out here I still have five more hours to go can't wait till night shift ends for me
@@defcon3security782 I feel u man I'm just so used to it I've been doing Graveyard for so many years when I have to work FEMA government jobs it's always day shift so I get that feeling you are describing during that time lol it's crazy man it's like it's to bright outside the sun will give me a migraine and I'm just so out of it almost zombie-like. It's definitely tuff it takes a lot of adjustments to get used to that's for sure.
Ayeee new content! Like the knowledge talking is key not rambling just projecting your experience onto us! Appreciate and I know the world does too! Showing young hard working men how to optimize and work better!
Hey I really appreciate that I have some family in town for one more week but after that should be getting more videos out always feel free to ask questions on here maybe I can answer them live
Is there any expediting the process of becoming a lvl 3 armed guard in a constitutional carry state as prior USMC infantry team lead? I'm about to figure it out for myself anyhow, just biding my time until college haha, cheers brotha
Also I just wanted to add and I do apologize i don't mean to bother u but! I just wanted to say that I really love your videos i have been watching for a while now you even inspired me to get into security work! So thank you so much for that! But with that being said I was wondering what your EDC load out is when you are not on duty??? I think that would be interesting! So thank you again and God bless you and your entire family 🙏 and have a wonderful night stay safe
@@defcon3security782 that is a nice one! I appreciate you replying to my messages.. and I can't wait to see what you for us next! Also I don't know if you are into flashlights and stuff like that but if you are olight is having a sale on a lot of there gear..I just thought I would let you know I think there light's are pretty good for duty light's but anyway God bless you and your family and have a wonderful night and be safe at work!
I can make a guess as to where you are working and who you are working for. I honestly think we may be working for the same company in differently contracted locations in the same state (NC). Graves suck! and if you are working graves in the same aspect that I am, its hell on earth. I've only been employed a week and they're already talking about offering me Sergent for a $5/hr pay bump. Boring shifts with no cell phones and limited on what we can bring on site. Not even unapproved books to read! Not sure how much later I'll be at this post as I have an interview tomorrow for $2/hr more!
Then it sounds like we are at the same place going to Sergeant is a little bit more than five bucks though email me and we can talk a little more but I do agree graveyard sucks that's why I cannot wait to go to days hopefully change things up a little bit
Also my friend your Mic is going in and out it's really low for a long time and then all of a sudden it gets really loud so IDK what is going on with your phone
@@defcon3security782 OH ok well maybe it was My TV I was watching from my smart TV! Maybe it is not as smart as it claims it is! So I apologize if I was wrong about that! Also we miss you here in California! But I am glad you found a new home and a new life! Also is the cost of living a lot cheaper out there in North Carolina than it is here in California??
Re-watch all your videos and you motivated me hope you do more videos
Refreshing to see you on here

Thanks so much most of the time I feel like I'm rambling
Defcon kind of worry. Hope to see more videos.
Worked night shift security at an ER for a year. Pros and cons for sure. Good luck out there
So you definitely know obviously one of the biggest cons is your health there is no amount of adjusting that will ever make working nights healthier
For sure. You just gotta do the best you can. Get some good and consistent nutrition and make it to the finish line. It’s not forever
Love Nightshifts 😂 just away from the drama is all i need
Yeah I get that it's going to be one of the hard part's about going back to day shift but trying to sleep everyday during the day it's so difficult and then on my off days trying to sleep at night only to go back to days will drive a person crazy
Happy Halloween...Defcon3! 🎉 que tal Mike😊
Thanks sir !!! And likewise to you
Drop in and do a video soon bro! Would be good to here from you :)@@defcon3security782
Same here..but it depends on the facility
Yes that's very true that's why I suggest if your company's not doing it for you just bounce go to another one
Vitamin D helps for graveyard, so you don't get depressed
That's good to know thing is I only have a couple more weeks of this but it wouldn't hurt to start anyways

Yeah that sounds like a bad experience sorry you have to deal with that ...it's not a way to manage
Thats awesome man! love the inspiration from your chill talks and story times :]

Try working the 1am to 9am shift 😂
Thank you so much I appreciate it God bless you too
I was stuck with the 1am to 9am shift it was 26 a hour 40 hours a week didn’t last 2 months can’t do a night shift like that ever again.
I know exactly what you mean bro right now it's 1:00 in the morning out here I still have five more hours to go can't wait till night shift ends for me
All good brother as long as your doing good that's all that matters...keep em coming man take care! ✌️ We work same hours (6pm-6am)
So you definitely know the struggle I'm telling you I can't handle it

Look into executive protection brother 🇺🇸👊🏾
Executive protection pays $30-50 an hour. High end private security.
Do you prefer day shift or swing shift ?
I think I like swing shift better but I don't mind day definitely not night shift
@defcon3security782 When applying for security jobs, do you think giving a shift preference hinders you from demanding a higher pay?
@@Crazypitbull16 it depends on the company but they respect when your more honest
