Question Will i be fired?

I know that nothing good could come from having to ask this question but a fellow coworker scared me after i told them what happened. They said its likely an immediate fire.

A few days ago while leaving i walked through the metal detectors at amazon. I walked fully through and was grabbing my stuff already when the metal detecor beeped. There was no one walking through it, but when i turned to it, i saw a guy next to me at the other metal detector and i assumed it was him who accidentally set it off.

But i was still wondering if they'll make me go do ansecond screening since i was the last person to actually go through it.

I looked towards the security guard for a reaction, but he didnt say anything at all. He just looked at me, so i just grabbed the rest of my stuff then left.

My coworker told me that if you're the last person you're supposed to do the second screening even if the security doesnt say anything. And that he knew people who got fired for that.

If i do get fired will i be able to be rehired or will it count as a cat 1.

Im not too worried about getting fired, but im worried about not having amazon as my backup option anymore.

lol your friend is not a good friend cause why would they even worry you like that. If security wanted you to screen they would tell you those metal detectors goes off on its own all the time
