My friend works as a security guard for a major company in a 30 floor-complex construction including supermarket and offices in the middle of the city. I often ask him if he feels bored or tired because, in my head, he stands in front of the gate, watches out folks moving in and out, and he wears a uniform every day, every year.
However, it's shown from him that he's satisfied with his present occupation and has no intention of changing this uninspired job into another better job. This makes me curious and I wonder how interesting security services are. One day came to see him, and I understood deeply the reason he enjoys the job of a security.
Working for security is not as simple as I thought before. All best security guards are paid for protecting properties and assets of a company, a building or stores, or any people in the place that they are working. The guard guides and checks any customers coming whether they go to the building with accepted purposes or not. Sometimes, security deals with lockouts lost persons, etc.

They also inspect and listen to completely video cameras and alarm systems to be certain each corner of places is in good status with no disorder. Everything will be fine if their working place is quiet and secure and isn't the place that a lot of folks communicate. However, most of the security guards are always working in complex areas where safety is given priority because there's the possibility of crime, theft, signs of disease.
