Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

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
