I’ve got days off this weekend and honestly, I cannot go back on Monday. There’s so much wrong with the job. I need to just write it down.
We had less than nine days training
We deal with the general public we’re like PCSO’s
But for a private organisation, not the police.
Since joining I’ve been involved in one major life and death incident and numerous others where people could’ve easily been killed, I could’ve been killed for 30 grand a year
We have no help
When we call for assistance, we’ve got as much chance of getting the police’s attention as the general Public does. We’re not a priority.
Generally, they work with us, but they don’t have to
this weekend has been the final straw for me
Somebody was bottled outside a nightclub a young girl was thrown around by her hair
And punched in the face
And I was criticised And told that I could’ve got hurt
I was nowhere near the incident. I was just filming it as is our company policy.
I tried to administer first aid, but they didn’t want it presumably because they were in the wrong and they started the fight. They didn’t wanna hang around for the ambulance or the police.
I’m at my absolute wits end
If I give up this job, I don’t think they’ll let me go back on universal credits
I used to work in an office performing digital transformations. This is so far out of my comfort zone. I don’t even know how I got the job.
Well, I do. I got the job because they wanted somebody normal in the role instead of the usual decades that apply who are police rejects.
But on that subject we’ve got a guy who thinks he’s the team leader but actually isn’t, who’s being disciplined for sexual harassment and currently out on the streets working with young intoxicated women.
It’s an absolute joke

That all sounds horrifying. No real advice but good luck
