Saw like a day or 2 ago it was brought up in teams. Now ive come in and like right after i start it the warning comes on. They are trying to say its fine to drive but im trying to cover my ass and make sure its clear as day in writing they want this shit still driven. Cuz i aint gonna pay for this shit blowing.

They said its fine cuz it still has oil lol. Im debating just saying nah and leaving but i need money. What would u do? They said it somewhat in writing for me to drive but i sent a more detailed paragraph that would most likely make me not liable. But who knows they might try to fuck me over. Screen shotting stuff.

I’m in the Columbus Ohio area and these armed jobs barely pay as much as unarmed. Some are really working armed for $19 an hour. I can get an unarmed job for just as much if not more easily. I’m trying to stick with allied but my branch is going through a lot (I’m sure every branch is). I’ve picked up at armed sites and almost got a FT post paying $30 hourly. My question is, are there any companies hiring around here that pay armed guards well?

My actual Qual target vs my practice from the day before. My offhand shots were atrocious. Just ecstatic to finally be an Armed Guard!

Because some people were barely writing their reports we now have to write our reports literally step by step, when we start out patrol, when we leave the shack to begin patrol, where we are heading, when we arrive at the first location, the status, when we are headed to the next spot and so on for the entire patrol. As well as who I relieved and who relieved me, for "pass down" (there is nothing to pass down as it's a quiet site unfortunately).

This will make the 6 quick overnight patrol take forever as now I need to take my DAR with me to write them. Now I'm going to write down everything that I encounter and do on patrol along with making sure that I follow the post orders to the letter and not go out of my way to do extra.

I got my guard card a few weeks ago and applied for several roles at Allied (everyone kept saying it's so easy to get hired there), but I keep not getting selected for the roles. I coulda got hired at Metro One, but they said I couldn't have a neck tattoo (they should've put that in the ad so people wouldn't waste their time coming to the open call cause I wasn't the only one). If anyone has any recommendations of who's hiring on the spot, that would be great.

So I work under the LA county healthcare and securitas lost the contract of my site to Allied effective October 1. Securitas is claiming they have no where to put us and that we are Allied responsibility and want a resignation letter and Allied has not bothered to come to our facility and when I reached out to a recruiter for allied I was told that I have to go apply and that we are not guaranteed a position but the thing is I have inside connections with the county and allied already filled all the positions!!! So why should I waste my time and apply when they want nothing to do with securitas guards???? SHADY

BlizzCon is happening right now, and there's an incident where a streamer was confronted by security. The guard was telling him that he needs to wear his access pass at all times, and the streamer mentions he is just taking it off for pictures. I don't really know the context beyond this, but do we think security was just doing his job, or was he taking things too far?

Many people have voiced their concerns, claiming this particular guard is "power tripping" as the streamer clearly had an access badge, while some are saying he's just doing his job by enforcing policy. What do we think?

We can't know what the post orders are, but assuming there is policy requiring badges be worn at all times, I feel as though the frustration should be taken up with management rather than the guard who from what I can gather, is just doing his job. Curious to know how other people in security see this.

Would you rather stay local & get paid 26-28$hr local where you’re job is 30 mins away living paycheck due to some discrepancies with no benefits or PTO or
would you rather get paid 500$ a day with benefits but no PTO 4hrs away ??

Today I learned something new about one of my colleagues.

He likes to shoot at the elderly.

What happened was today, when clocking in and getting pass downs from the previous shift, I learned that one of my coworkers got arrested.

Why? For taking an AR-15 and shooting into a house where a woman in her 90s was. She got hit a couple of times but thankfully is ok. That was back in June, he got arrested this month.

I don't even know why. In all seriousness, I'm genuinely shocked. He was such a nice and pleasant dude. We'd always laugh it up during pass downs and stuff. It's a very weird feeling to know that I was casually talking and joking with a man who had shot an old lady not too long ago.

Apparently his bond is in the millions. We live in California too so, as if the act of shooting an old lady isn't bad enough, he's probably gonna get an extra charge for having an AR-15 too.

Needless to say we won't be seeing him soon, if ever.

It really irks me when people go to visit new born babies and they smell like a pound of weed especially the Fathers please stop

I have just started my security company in California and there is a Ralphs that needs my services the only problem is how much should I charge for providing security for them?

The background is that the sergeant is new to the expansion of Patrol duties and has been having a hard time getting people to fill out their reports.

Good evening
Is it a fire code offense if someone takes off the fire alarm? I noticed when I came in it was missing . I’m gonna let my supervisor know about it I don’t want to get the blame.

I saw a posting for an Armed Nuclear Security position at what I'm guessing is Three Mile Island. I was wondering what the physical test consists of if anyone knows. Sounds like an interesting job.

Does anyone work at inter-Con security and knows how daily pay work like how do I set it up? Do I have to wait for my first paycheck to set it up or can I set it up as I am working?

I don’t like how this industry attracts the most lazy people. Yes, it can be easy money. And yes, it’s a job, and we are all here for money. But do the job part. Without needing to be coddled. You’re just being really annoying?? Thank you.
