@Gorgritch_umie_killa

Neither. Armed security, regularly at an apartment block, irregularly at various offices, manufacturing plants, a Mercedes-Benz establishment, and lots of uniformed but unarmed jobs around the place.

It was an interesting job, but when one of my workmates was shot when he walked into a drug deal one night while doing his rounds (in the apartment block), my wife got twitchy so I gave it up.

I suppose thats an understandable position for your wife to have taken. Sorry about your workmate.

But, damn! I was so sure it was Armaguard.

Didn't even know armed security guards for buildings/premises was a thing in Aus. But then i don't tend to hang around fancy places when they're closed to see.

I still reckon theres an IAMA in this.
