Sounds like another all nighter out on the Range in NW Florida. No. Wait. I'm armed to the teeth. Snakes and spiders beware.

Unarmed. In an area where everyone you will encounter has access to military firepower.

Exactly... If you are above 40 inches, you are given an AK.

Im considering it... it all depends if this Reserve police commission Im going for works out or not.

[Mr. Security]

I'd do it. Id be more concerned with the camel spiders, scorpions and cobras.

Especially those camel spiders!!!! I don't want to work armed, but I'll make an exception for the spiders. 1 RPG please. (make that 50)

[aka Bull]

If I were ever called about a position like that all they'd hear on the phone is:

"Sorry the number you have dialed is permanetly disconnected to you."

[Mr. Security]

Yikes! My job is looking wonderful now.
