Fake cop, wannbe cop, security gaurd. Black ghetto security gaurd (that will never happpen)

Security guards, usually unarmed, that are hired by companies and rented out to agencies for things such as concerts or school security.

A slang term for a Security Guard (known as Security Officer in the business).

There are several kinds of people attracted to this work:

1.) The "Lifer": A loser in life who cannot do anything other than be a waste of space. These are the ones that make it harder for other people to perform a simple job of making sure a client's property doesn't burn down or get ransacked. They are insecure, lazy, and mentally slow. They think that they are somehow like Police or the Military. These tend to be in their late 30's and higher but you can see this sad excuse for existence in some 20 somethings that really fail at life. .

2.) College students: A lot of the younger guards you will run into who seem intelligent are usually in this class. Often this occupation allows for ample study time if done covertly. The pay rate is much better than most college jobs so they play it smart and do these kinds of jobs.

3.) Retired people: Surprisingly enough not every old guard you see will be an idiot. Often these are guys and gals who have retired and in order to have a supplemental income, they take on this job. They are often articulate and fairly intelligent for the most part.

fat cops who are basically useless for nothing else but staking out smoking areas on school campuses and getting hard off of couples making out at the mall. easy to outrun and distracted by loud noises.

a uniformed security guard

A security guard privately hired to walk around a mall, school, concert, event, etc...
Usually rent-a-cops think they are better than everyone else, but usually have very sorry lives. A rent-a-cop usually sees no excitement in his job, so he will bust u for pretty much anything, just for fun

try being a "rent-a-cop" and see how you feel after an 8 hour shift. then tell me that mall security doesn't deserve any respect.
