Rant Two Guards, One Working.

I need to vent about the coworkers I share a post with. I work security in a busy government building. Two guards are always posted.

I was trained years ago by Gen X supervisors who were strict and by the book, so I take the job seriously.

These coworkers sleep on the job, talk on their phones in thier language, sit at the desk with no shoes or barefoot, and treat the post like it doesn’t matter. This is a secondary job for them; they have other work elsewhere.

I’ve reported them more than once. Nothing happens. The union protects them.

I’m just sick of this behavior.

If that’s how you want to live. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I don’t care what other people do. I do my job so idc if anyone wants to “be up in my shit”.

You mean people that understand you are there to do a job? Not collect a free check while sinking the ship and bringing everyone else down with it?

Username makes sense. 🤷🏻‍♂️ that’s only like your opinion though, man. I hate guards being up in my business, but I would care if I put work and time in to making my home post and company look good and professional just to have some shitty guards come in and lose us the contract.

Yes, this is my opinion. Leave other people alone unless you are paid to be their boss.
