lol i promise if i become a SG, i'll try not to be a degenerate one.

and um..would those criminal screenings happen to involve a urine test? (random screenings i mean..)

I worked unarmed security a couple times in the past. 1st time was eeeeasy as fuck but pay was only $9hr. Worked swing shift and was by myself all evening. Just read and chilled.

Second time was the day shift and a little more fast paced but pay was $13hr then moved up to the control center where I dispatched and watched the CCTV, made $14hr doing that. From there moved up to kind of like the office and incident manager of the security department and made $17hr.
I hear ya. Did you get to pick the shifts you wanted or was it assigned by your agency?

You still doing it btw?
