Crazy, Crazy I tell you

Talk about one crazy hour. With working here things are really slow or they all come down at once.

We got a call about a recent termination loitering around the site. We asked who the individual was since we were not notified of any recent terms. They told us the name and he was still active in all our databases. We thought great how long has this guy been gone and we didn't know about it. So we deactivated him in our databases and went on the man hunt to try and find this guy.

After about 30 minutes of searching the premises we finally came to the conclusion that either this guy saw us and left in a hurry, or the person might of been imagining things and thought they saw the person when they really didn't. We then put a BOLO out to all the guards.

Then someone came in and said this person has just been terminated and he is in the front lobby going crazy. So we went up to lobby and what she said was an understatement. That guy was going nuts. He hadn't even worked out here for a month yet. And when those type of people see security they either do one of two things. They calm down and quietly leave or they go even more nuts and try to fight. Well this guy didn't calm down. He ran down the hall though.

After having to catch him and sit him back down he wanted to talk to the person who fired him. We said we would give her a call which we did and she said nope and that he needs to be escorted off site. So we told that she said no and that he has to go. We then asked him if he was waiting for his ride or if he had his own vehicle. He said he had his own. I think the presence of 3 guards standing around him did start to calm him down.

He then walked out the door and we were watching him, then he made the turn and started coming back to try and get back inside. We met him outside again to head him off and told him he had to leave. He thought about it for a few minutes then I guess thought it best to go ahead and leave. He got in his vehicle and drove like a bat outta hell off site.

We hate doing that as guards because we really do bad about it, but it is our job. Now there are some super cops who really enjoy it, but we try to shy away from those guys as much as possible.
