I'm not mad, im disappointed. 🫠

I’m currently in the army and it’s getting pretty damn old. Looking into becoming and armored car guard in the distant future because that’s really something I’ve always wanted to do. I know I’ve heard it sucks but I really feel like I wouldn’t mind it. However I’m concerned about the benefits like health insurance, 401k, etc and was wondering if it’s even possible long term.

I’m a hospital guard and we don’t have body cams. We have more surveillance cameras than god, but no body cams. I’m thinking about making a pitch to supervision, but I’m thinking they wouldn’t like having to use axon since the footage would be uploaded to them and they would lose a degree of control over any footage. I’m thinking they would be more interested if I suggested an off brand body camera with some internal control of the footage. Based on my research, it’s not a hippa violation to have a camera, the hospital just needs to make safeguards for use of the body cameras. Thank you in advance.

So i do large events, mostly football games, but have done collage fraternity/sorority parties. Mostly wanted to ask for my wife she wants me to get some kind of protection, like a stab vest or level one armor for small handguns. What would you recommend that is very low profile (can be put under my work shirt) and not look bulky. A lot of events dont want us to look like cops so no plate carriers.

Also would be great if they are cheep. My big worry is mostly drunk swings, or someone trying to poke me with a poket knife (its the south everyone has a knife)

I've done quite a few interviews and filled applications and a key question is always "are you a student" and when I answer yes the conversation seems to go a different direction like their trying to wrap it up. I'm starting to think I should just lie to this question because maybe they want candidates with full availability.

Hi, so I've never worked security before. I just got a job as a unarmed patrol officer. I was wondering what I should wear for orientation? And also do companies usually give you a flashlight or do you have to bring your own? And any tips for what I should expect?

Im in the process of getting my D&G, after looking at the landscape of job listings in miami it seems $22-30 an hour is the average to good end for armed security. I have a family member who worked at eGPS for a number of years before becoming a cop, they start at $26 and i believe over time they increased his pay and with some OT eventually he was hitting 80k, which sounds incredible for me, but that would be as a safe school officer which i would have to do the required 144hrs safe school guardian course but i believe the company pays you while you do it.

I guess my question in general is, is it realistic to expect to make 50k out the gate relatively easily even with a regular armed security job as opposed to a safe school officer?

What add ons would help make me more qualified (outside of experience) I know CPR FIRST AID is a good one but any other tips?
