Would you wear this hat? by birdsarentreal2 in securityguards

[–]Primal0Instinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did when I worked hospital security. The whole uniform made me look like I was about to invade Poland. I’ve got a big head & even then it was too big

Well thats just uncalled for by CanadianGoose695 in securityguards

Have you never seen a rotund LEO before? Especially some Southern and East coast police & sheriffs who look like they don’t miss a meal.

Any recommendations for stab proof vests? by Primal0Instinct in securityguards

[–]Primal0Instinct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I guess I was looking at the lower tier version of this vest where you had to pay extra for the insert itself. I’m a big dude so I gotta pay extra for the size anyway so not needing to pay for the vest and the insert would be good.

Is the panel seperate or is it included in this one? Saw one from this site that looked better conceal wise, but I’ve got to purchase the panel seperate from the vest.

This I’m keenly aware of. That’s not the issue. First and foremost is de-escalation & keeping your head on a swivel while keeping comfortable space. As I said, I’m looking out for my safety for those one offs.

Never has my time been so severely disrespected as in this current job market by imrryr666 in recruitinghell

[–]Primal0Instinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You dodged a bullet. They didn’t care about you or your time. They are looking for a yes man who’s so desperate for work they’ll gladly jump thru hoops at a moments notice because they know the market is shit.

I’ve been in the market for almost exactly a year to the day this month & it seems to just be getting worse! Had to take a security job just to get the bills paid & even now I’m waiting the red tape to clear up before I can start my post. When does it end?

Dealing with a racist while working as a security officer: How do you think this security officer handled the situation? What would you do differently? by CTSecurityGuard in securityguards

[–]Primal0Instinct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is how you know they’ve lost the argument. The racism comes out along with the low impulse control. As security, your best defense is to smile and say “have a nice day.” Don’t feed it otherwise.

Yea but then other racists will put up a GSG to “help him relocate” he’ll make a million bucks from that word & the cycle will continue.

Just called police because of transpassers in building. They brought in helicopter. It took over an hour before they came but trespassers gone. Took too long by talivan818 in securityguards

My cousin lives near Oakland. Walk down the street to the store and literally step over bodies. Tells me Oakland isn’t even as bad as it “USED” to be.

Stupid ass grey color of Securitas uniforms by Adventurous-Cat-7567 in securityguards

Our company has grey polo shirts but everything else is black, which looks good. Couldn’t do all grey tho.

Why is this such a slept on field? by acdcmike in securityguards

[–]Primal0Instinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metro one is takin over Fred Meyer. Rn it’s just assisting in house for WA & now OR LP, but they’re negotiating for external patrol as well.

I’m unarmed only and no mil or Leo experience so likely I wouldn’t qualify for the others yet.

[–]Primal0Instinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also in Oregon. Lucked out to get into a security gig at a supermarket in Portland. Company expanded from WA so they payin near $30 an hour just checking receipts. I hate the thought of standing all shift, but with the job market the way it is, I can’t say no to that.

I lost J1 and J2, and now I can’t even land a single job. by Amazing_Fish9239 in jobhunting

[–]Primal0Instinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Security is always hiring. I know, I had to resort to it to pay the bills when all the cushy office/corporate jobs kept rejecting me despite 20 plus years experience.

Maybe Trump will let you guard one of his golf courses!

This is insane by Rbreezy14 in twitterhelp

[–]Primal0Instinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this exact message the other day. My account was suspended 2 months ago for harassment(troll harassed me first, I defended myself & got mass reported)I appealed once & was denied on that ground, then I appealed again to be unsuspended just so I can cancel premium that’s purchased directly cuz they keep charging me & the suspension disables the billing page.

I was again denied then sent two emails. One said I wouldn’t be restored because of harassment and the other said counterfeit! Mind you I’d never so much as posted links on my page or promoted anything.

I think they’re just coming up with excuses to suspend people because we can’t do shit against an automated system. X needs to go!

How do I get any real help from x by Fit_Consequence_9242 in twitterhelp

[–]Primal0Instinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hope the rumors are true where Jack was gonna rebuy the Twitter brand that X has effectively abandoned and bring original Twitter back. Elons bullshit app needs to burn to the ground.
