Then I remember how she used me and try to forget. I think of my ex Janis and how we acted with one another. He even buys me a meal for our shift when he gets himself something to eat. I have noticed over the past fourish years he has been getting me cool little knick-knacks like figurines and decorations for my apartment. He even helped me during my training which had formed our bond. We discovered this throughout our time together during our shift at the mall. We enjoy video games, we like to write I more than him though, we have similar taste in humor and music. I am only 28 years old while Tom is 30 so there isn't a big age gap between us so we have some similar interests. And thanks to Tom I find enjoyment in life. No hard money issues or any family incidents. I held him at gunpoint until the police arrived to take him away. And the other was when a man tried to break into my house. We have issued sidearms in case of armed suspects but throughout my time I only had to use it twice. My partner Tom would be with me when these things occurred in case something happened but he mostly just did the more routine check-up around the mall with one of the other guards while I sat on cams. If someone refused the baton and taser often helped. Sometimes women would go for the groin which is when I'd shove them on their way. I'd just show them to the door which resulted in a fist to the chest or gut and sometimes the face. I've even had people come up to me and want to fight. I've had to escort people from the mall because they were causing a scene. A couple of times I got in a squabble with people who wouldn't leave probably because they were drunk. Of course, I would show them off the property with little resistance. I've seen shady men and women alike survey the building I was guarding. I saw some kids out late looking rather intoxicated and called them a cab so they wouldn't get in an accident. I've been a security guard for about seven years now and haven't encountered anything unusual while on the night shift.
