Mastern works as a security guard (kind of) without being close to getting into a fight
Today as I worked as a door man at Randwick Racecourse probably the best job work & travel company ever have provided me with. $24 an hour and I hardly had to do anything. Now some jackass will come and claim that time passes more quickly if you are performing a stressful tedious and boring job compared to if you are only bored. This incorrect due to the following reason:
- Scientifically the only way to change how fast or slow time ellapses is to change speed at which you are travelling. Considering this is measured against the speed of light (300 000 km/second) you are always travelling really slow and thus time goes at the same pace no matter if you do nothing at work or you work your ass off (To be precise, in this theory time would go the fastest when you stand still, so if you work really hard then time might pass a fraction of a second slower during an eight hour shift).
Doing the security guard (kind of) job could in theory give me a valuable insight to why a lot of security guards are aggressive bastards that are constantly angry and provoking people to get a fight.But I could not find any good reason why they should be angry and aggressive. I mean after all it's a lot more relaxed looking at people sometimes telling them something (In my case that they should swap to plastic glasses as glass where not allowed on the stands.) than actually serving an endless line of people drinks for eight hours.So from an objective point of view the people who should be aggressive in a bar is the bartenders, but you never see them yelling at people or beating people up.
As for myself the predominant feeling was boredom mixed with a minor feeling of sore feet. Not once during eight hours did I get an overwhelming lust to beat someone up or yell at someone. This is a good thing as I don't have a carthe blanche (Security Guard ID) to do so, so if I did I would probably get in trouble.
So my conclusion is that the only reason security guards act the way they do is because of their Steroid abuse. So if you drugtest everyone and fire everyone who is positive on steroids you would probably have a lot better and safer nightlife in a city. If this solution for some reason does not work (I.E. if all the other idiots start a lot of fights when they are no longer intimidated by the guards) well then the solution would simply be to rehire the steroids.
That's all
