    hey, nothing inherently wrong with being security. retail security sucks ass though since it’s mostly looking for petty theft and then snitching. a lot of security is almost literally “i sit here and do nothing and then you pay me” which is kinda a sweet deal

      Yeah, I currently work security at a casino. I have very few qualms with kicking people out, because it’s not a healthy environment for the homeless to be at. It’s a place full of addicts and chances are if they manage to get their hands on some money, it’ll go straight to the tribe. We get pretty lax with kicking people out during the winter though, and will typically only do so if they’re consistently causing problems or are actively barred already.

      That’s what concert security was like, except I was also hitting a dab pen the whole time and pretending not to see people’s drugs in bag check. Man, what a great pre-covid gig deeper-sadness
