Are security guards kinda lame?

[IHaveRespawned]

From software engineer to security guard... feeling like a kick to my dignity. And that's even IF I pass the background check.

Yes

No

See poll

Most of them do nothing. They just sit there and wait for nothing to happen. When I worked security, I was event staff working the Super Bowl and concerts And everything else. It was an awesome job and I took care of my business like a professional. I worked there for three years in my 20s

[IHaveRespawned]

Yeah, I will find out how good/shitty this job will be. Hey, if it makes some extra money, why not, right? I am no longer in my 20s though, so I'll find out how much of a loser I will feel.

[Iron_Man]

You’re not old at all you’re in your prime still. Good luck with the new job but it’s going to be very boring if you’re just a regular security worker if you want entertainment event staff in your area if you live in a big city is awesome. Most average security guards they pay minimum wage not very much my friend does it for a living he’s always complaining.

[Iron_Man]

I still see CSC around and it’s called event staff they work concerts and football games and basketball games everything

[IHaveRespawned]

I am on SSDI, so I already receive $1,876 after deductions from the government. This should give me an extra $1,500 a month, as long as I don't exceed my SGA amount threshold.

[Iron_Man]

Oh, that’s good. I’m glad you’re working.

[exitseven]

No, they serve a genuine purpose. Some are guys that could not be cops but most just do it for the paycheck.

[IHaveRespawned]

"Some are guys that could not be cops but most just do it for the paycheck." --yeah that pretty much comfirms it

[Anonymous]

You should take any job you can get, like McDonald’s. You already know you won’t pass the background check.

[IHaveRespawned]

I am on SSDI, so in all reality I can be somewhat ok solely on that. I outright refuse to work fast food. I just wanted some additional, supplemental income to have some room.

[Agape93]

I hire guards. So no.

Get over it.

[IHaveRespawned]

Are you at the corporate or local/branch level?

[Agape93]

Corporate

[IHaveRespawned]

So you may be processing my application then?

[Agape93]

If you applied with us for some reason, yeah.

[IHaveRespawned]

So you may be seeing my name here again soon from your higher pay grade corporate role. Fun.

[Agape93]

Nah, our company is in based in an entirely different region than you.

[IHaveRespawned]

Deep down, were you disappointed because you wanted to put the stamp of denial on my application? Do you still hate me?

[Agape93]

Nope, I'll let others do that. I dont need to.

Have you given me a reason to not despise you?

[IHaveRespawned]

I am an avid volunteer at church. I am advocating for better fire and emergency services throughout the state. I was an instrumental person in getting a bill passed that makes assaults towards first responders a felony. I am loving and I take good care of my pets. I love animals. I am accepting of people even if they have flaws.

[Agape93]

And what of that is supposed to sway me?

[IHaveRespawned]

Why so much hate flowing through those veins? I filled out the background check by the way.

[Agape93]

I dont like sex offenders, and anyone older than 18 has no business fucking a minor. And no, age of consent is not the age of majority. So that stain won't wash out. You know this. I've explained this.

[IHaveRespawned]

But I am not a sex offender. And the girl you are referring to was only less than 4 years apart in age at the time. I regret it, believe me. I should have waited for my wife, but meeting my wife when I was 29, I never believed I was ever going to find my first real girlfriend or get married like I did.

[Agape93]

I'll make you a deal then. I'll drop that vector of hostility, if you can acknowledge any adult fucking someone under 18, is objectively wrong. Very easy.

[IHaveRespawned]

What if the guy is 18 and the girl is 17? Or what if they are only just a few years age difference? Did you know an 18 year old can be a senior in high school?

[Agape93]

Are you refusing to acknowledge it? Again?

[IHaveRespawned]

If there is a considerable age difference, then yes, it is wrong. If they are 4 or less years apart in age, it will depend on the young man.

[Agape93]

It's a yes or no. But I'll make it clear. Was it wrong of you to, as a 20 year old man, to pursue someone under 18?

Yes or no.

[IHaveRespawned]

It raises eyebrows but it really depends on the situation. I will say I didn't have malice intent. I regret having sex with this girl because she ended up pushing me away after the weekend anyways. But at the same time, I wouldn't have met my wife whom I love now.

[Agape93]

It's a yes or no. So, yes or no. Stop pussyfooting around and answer.

[Cidknee]

No, it's honest work. You may enjoy it.

[IHaveRespawned]

Getting barated by children (and adults) telling me I am not a real cop and have no real authority? Doesn't sound fun.

[msc545]

Not every job is fine but at least it'll put food in your mouth.

[msc545]

It's better than being unemployed

[IHaveRespawned]

I am nervous about being berated by children and adults telling me I have no real authority

[msc545]

If they tell you that then they tell you that. It will be embarrassing but it won't harm you.
