But one more thing Mr. Security, have you called Dave out in this thread for his language?

[Mr. Security]

1. Mr. security your right, and I'm sorry for my language I can appreciate your point.

2. Not directided at you Mr. security, but the comment I'm talking down to security is no I'm not I'm talking down to him. I'm not saying anything wrong with security on a whole, as I said I did my time there.

Thanks for helping us keep it clean.

Mr. Security, have you called Dave out for his judicious use of language, or even mine?

Seriously, though. This thread has degraded into Marchetti flailing about screaming "I HAVE 22 YEARS AND 18 ARRESTS," and the rest of us just going, "Please stop. Please?" While sometimes pointing out that his rantings really don't have anything to do with it.

I have 12 years experience. Do I get a medal?

Dave has been reported. As a volunteer moderator, you could help by setting the right example and by reminding members what we all agreed to when we became members, namely, no profanity.

I'm specifically referring to gross profanity, the kind that is in this thread.

I'll give you a medal for 12yrs.

Actually, volunteer moderators are not agents of Cygnus Business Media, Cygnus Security Group, and are not to "remind" people of the rules. We just delete spam posts.

25 years with the same hotel & I didn't even get a handshake!

I want one too...As a contract security officer, I have precisely zero arrests.

I'm sure that you're allowed to set a good example.

Same here. I did detain a goose once for a local bird society. He resisted too. Does that count?

[davis002]

Not that it matters, but the number of arrests Dave has made throughout his career is the number of arrests I make on a good week... or bad week if you look at it that way...

22 years of experience may equal 6 months of experience 44 times. I feel a strong urge to cuss.

Yeah, in all honesty I just know I'm somewhere between 800 and 900, as the last time I actually counted was about 6 months before I left my last agency. (And though I can find out with a little emailing and searching, I'm too lazy.)

I should count the 'remanded into custody by order of the court' detentions and transports as real arrests (I had to do corrections and court security functions before hitting the road in Cali), that'd double the number

[N. A. Corbier]

I have a few "arrests," in the strict sense that I deprived a person of their freedom of movement for committing violations of law in my presence.

I honestly don't keep track.

I keep better track of medical life saves (two in my career), than I do of arrests.
