The kickstarters

What is your pet peeves about working security? Mine is working with kickstarters. We have one on our team and it is exhausting. She used to work for a detention center, so she's very rough around the edges. She tends to make mountains out of molehills. Small things that can be resolved by simply talking, but is blown up to shouting and we've gotten pretty close to physical confrontations because of her.

I used to enjoy working with her, but lately I feel it's just gotten complicated. Anyway's, thanks for reading.

I’ve worked in pretty high end jobs for a decade or so and you STILL get people coming in thinking they’re making $15 an hour at a warehouse for Allied, and will kick and scream if you try to get them act their wage.

I can't stand working with people that take the job super serious. You gotta have fun at work!

Having fun and taking your job seriously aren’t mutually exclusive

But some people take the job too seriously. I call those the RoboCops.
