A security guard is, I think it's a great job for temporary work or if you're just starting out as a young adult or if you're retired and you just kind of want to keep working. But not many people want to stay in it and security guards are often made scapegoats. I was thrown under the bus many times by my client for things that maybe weren't that big a deal or what have you, hours. Your most valuable asset as a security guard, from my experience, is providing your time and people get sick of it because their work-life balance is thrown way off.
