My gf is a level 4 comissioned security officer for a local security company. She's one of the "watch commanders" that basically drives around to the different locations and makes sure everyone is doing what they're supposed to and respond to any situations.
Today she had stopped by a location and one of their personnel was fiddling with his car which apparently was giving him trouble on the way to work. They joked around a bit and one of the other personnel (also a level 4) decided to draw his pistol and aim it at the car's engine (and close enough to the guy under the hood to say that it was essentially aimed at him as well) with finger on trigger and made a joke about "I know how to fix this." She immediately jumped on him to holster his weapon, which he did begrudgingly. They had a few awkward moments then she decided to take him to his next post in the security car and then let him know in no uncertain terms that he'd better not ever unholster his weapon again without a good reason and if he does in her presence it'd be hard pressed for her not to arrest him on the spot (shes also a deputy constable). He came back some bs about he was in the military before this job, etc. She decided to let it go at the moment and reported it to the ops manager on the way to her next site. The ops manager decided to call the guy in off post to the main office where they both dressed him down and she wrote him up. He again tried to argue about how stupid this was because in the military they wouldnt care to which she responded that they dont care about his military experience. He is no longer a military member and therefore a civilian and bound by civilian laws. He responded with a big ole "Well F*ck you!" to everyone in the office on his way out then proceeded to text everyone else he knew in the company about what theyre trying to do to him. Word is from the big wig he's being sacked tomorrow due to his conduct.
I think he definitely got himself fired with the last bit, but did they overreact at first?
