Come on guys...
Hey guys. I'm a security officer at a school in Minnesota. I also have a criminal justice degree and am POST eligible to become a police officer. I have a 4.0 GPA and am continuing with a 4 year degree in business. I am working as a guard as a way to make money for my wife and son until I can land a job as a "real" cop. So glad to know all you guys hate me. I really like your show, but I'm not sure I will continue to listen. Working security is not my dream job, but if you hadn't noticed, the economy kinda sucks. I can take a joke but to say you all hate me for keeping my kid in diapers is a little much.

C'mon guys, bring on the real hate mail. No offense Thomas, but you are too nice of a hatemail sender, and now a VIP. We FBHW VIP members demand Essier Hatemails from real douchebags.

@Thomas
Yeah dude, do you play bass too or something? A perfect trifecta! Maybe you can be the security manager of Dickstock!
Glad to see you have a good sense of humor, and also the good sense to buy a VIP. Well worth it.

I am a "security guard" as well and enjoy it... I don't want to be a police officer nor do a have loftier goals. There is really something about waking up and not hating your job.

As for being made fun of... Who cares?

In fact, when I get poked at, I join in... Who knows more rent-a-cop jokes than a guy who made it his career?

I do get pi55ed though on the trivia days when some jackass says he's a security guy, and loses to Zane. I mean damn, Zane really? How do you lose to Zane..? If I can learn how to dial my phone someday Imma gonna call.

Ouch. Double whammy.:-O
P.S. Did security for a couple of years while recovering from surgeries. It sucked. Except towing vehicles of yuppy L.L. Bean shoppers who park in someone's assigned spot for work causing them to be late; and then being told I was in the wrong for towing their Volvo on Christmas Eve morning. Not my fault people are ignorant and can't read the 3 posted signs.

"Freeze,or I'll use my walky talky". Always wanted to say that. Sorry Mr. Blart. it comes w/ the job. Could be worse. You could be an ambulance driver like Ron.

Good to see there's no hard feelings, Thomas.

Man, you guys slayed me on the air today. To show no hard feelings I bought a VIP pass. Make fun of guards all you want (most of us deserve it). Just try not to make a blanket statement about hating all of us. Our job kinda sucks enough already.
