Yeah nothing ever happened for the entire summer, so I was just getting paid to read/play video games. At least I didn't fall asleep like the other old guys who did the job.

Citizen's arrest is the funniest thing in the world. Best way to get your ass beat or sued. Majority of security jobs are strictly forbidden to do anything other than say "stop". Any gear they have on them for security purposes is merely self defense. Even armed security with guns are not allowed to draw their weapon ever unless their own life is on the line, they are not police and to have a gun is merely for self protection, and to scare people away. Most security services and those in commercial locations have no weaponry other than maybe a walkie talkie.
It's a surveillance job really, not a private police force.

That's funny, because I work security and I've taken down one person with a citizen's arrest a few years ago.andycapps said:
It's generally not advisable to attempt one, but if you witness someone committing a felony, you have every right to do so (which is why I did it and was not hit with any legal action).
My point, though, was that security guards are hardly power/helpless at moments like that.
blah blah, criticize work stuff, blah blah, display bad judgement, blah blah, say something politically incorrect, blah blah, righteous indignation, blah.
There, just copy and paste the above any time you feel like making a thread, Nintendobooger. It pretty much encapsulates your entire shtick: Sour, unfunny, angry guy.
BTW: I bet that security guard gets paid more than you and is better liked by your coworkers. Stew on that for a bit.

It probably involves a new insurance policy, they probably have to have some sort physical security to be able to collect it and he was the cheapest around.
Oh wait a booger topic, nevermind my post then, not like he's even going to read it because he sees his reflection in the mirror and can't look away.

Joke Character or Social Inept. Either way, sad person. For your sake and humanity's, I hope it's the former.

The law varies per state on such matters, but any person when allowed to can attempt to stop a felony under right conditions, though at same time their are legal ramifications involved with attempting to stop a felony and problems that occur. People have been sued and arrested before for attempting to help out only to cause more damage or get other people injured in the process.

does he get a chair? you should give him a chair. i bet his feet hurt. someone should get him a chair
I agree with the OP entirely. I have the unfornate displeasure of working with a guy thats 29st and is the most annoying person in the world. IE cant shut up about Middlesborough FC and its rivals Newcastle and Sunderland. Skints like Sh*t 90% percent of the time even more so if he has to do any type of pyshical exersion.
Whistles and sings to himself like a mix between drowning cat and a a small boy making random fart noises.

:lol Too bad I have your laundry, asshole! Did you really think paying me only $.50 to watch it was going to end well? I'm homeless and I need food and money. I'm not going to be a slave to some pompous douche with a couple of spare quarters. After you flipped your change in my direction, I contemplated waiting around to jump you and throw you a beating AFTER you folded those clothes for me, but as bad as I smelled, I didn't want to get the scent of douchebag on me as well.NintendosBooger said:
Enjoy your misery, you tool! I'm wearing your underpants right now as I sit her pissing myself. :lol

Holy shit it took me a few seconds to figure out what you meant.
I thought you were working with someone who literally was 29th street in your city. Like, he was the actual street.
You Brits. Always claiming the metric system is superior and lolling at us for not using it.
But I'm on to you. You still measure shit in stones and hogsheads when we're not looking!
Protip: 29 stone = 406 pounds.

Sounds like this asshole at work. Fat people have their place in the job market, it just shouldn't be at something that might require rapid movement. My opinion of this company just went down a few notches as a result of this hire.
Ignoring the value of "fat people" (wtf!) do you really think a security guard is anything more than a presentational thing? Unless you're working at a Gov. facility or for someone like Controlled Risks the dude isn't gonna risk his life for anything in that building.
Still, as you kind of say, presentationally it's pretty shitty.

Dude, pretty much all these guys are fat. Their jobs is not to chase down criminals and tackle them. They serve more as a deterrent and a witness.
You seem to have a history of creating threads complaining about non issues.

I didn't think this could be a nintendobooger thread because I thought he was still banned but apparently he came back for more. :lol

You don't need to be an ex-Marine, but I'd expect someone that looks fit and can handle himself. A security guard needs to possess attributes that would excite respect and sometimes fear, and none of these come to play when I look at this person. Honestly, I really don't even want him to talk to me.

Nintendosbooger sure has some strong opinions on, er, interesting matters.
Dude my job hired this fat chick to be part of LP which is basically security during the day time, and this bitch uses a cane so she can get some help getting around. So like a four or five months ago we had a sale on $20 pot and pan set that was usually $80. My manager got decked in the face when she was trying to have two customer calm down but when you have customers getting ready to fight each other you never get in between customers, but this fatass of an LP lady stood there and didn't even attempt to help her LP buddies carry the customer out of the store, hell the LP guy asked me to help him since she was too much of a lazy ass.
