00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:17.519
M m. He was cold.
Cold that he was cold. Mine,

2
00:00:26.359 --> 00:00:29.640
what's going on up there? Could
be the most important event in history.

3
00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:44.079
Now I have the cold to destroy
our worlds, I said. I hope

4
00:00:44.119 --> 00:01:07.719
this is close to hill. It's
all ever again. Hello and welcome to

5
00:01:07.719 --> 00:01:10.719
the Details from the Dark Podcast.
I'm your host Bob with my co host

6
00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:12.879
Brittany. Hey guys, what's up
Brittany? How is it going? And

7
00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:17.840
it's finally Friday. I know I'm
excited. I am as well. My

8
00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:22.719
motors running. It's gonna be a
wild weekend. It actually is. Do

9
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:26.439
you want to go into why?
Okay, So, as some of you

10
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:30.439
know, Brittany and I have been
as by some of you, I mean

11
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:32.680
everyone that listens to the show,
because we've been talking about it for a

12
00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:38.280
year, have been working on a
documentary and it has been a ruler coaster,

13
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:45.400
to say the absolute least. Yeah, and something that day I thought

14
00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:49.239
would never come came today where I
uploaded it to our YouTube channel. Now

15
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:56.799
you guys can't watch it yet.
We're actually having a cast watch party tomorrow.

16
00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:00.799
So weird to say that it is, but we have of everyone you

17
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:02.920
know, Tyler, Austin, Nathan
Us, We're all going to be in

18
00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:07.639
the same place for I think the
first time since our last investigation at Randolph.

19
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:12.120
I think so actually, and we're
going to sit down and watch the

20
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:16.599
documentary and so we it's it's been
a challenge. This has been the most

21
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:21.520
challenging thing creatively I think any of
us have ever done or been a part

22
00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:25.120
of. Yeah, and I you
know, it's one of those things where

23
00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:28.719
when it's your own stuff, you're
always going to find things wrong with it,

24
00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:30.800
but you're also always going to kind
of be blind to the flaws.

25
00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:38.120
And I have seen bits and pieces
of it. And the one thing I

26
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:40.680
will say, and this is the
best I guess for review I can give

27
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:45.120
it is it's something I would watch. And you guys know how critical,

28
00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:49.560
especially the patrons, are aware of
how critical I am of paranormal media in

29
00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:53.960
general, and of the most listeners
are aware of how just critical I am

30
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:58.879
when it comes to anything to do
with paranormal media, when it comes to

31
00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:00.840
TV shows, movies, whatever.
I mean. There's certain guests that we've

32
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:07.120
turned down because I don't like their
portrayal on television or on movies, and

33
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:13.199
that was a big concern of mine
when we approached let's make a paranormal documentary

34
00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:19.639
because I shit on them so much. It's kind of it's really we found

35
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:22.080
out the hard way. It's easy
to get wrong, and it took a

36
00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:23.240
lot of trial and error for us
to get it to where it is.

37
00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:28.199
And I'm very excited and kind of
emotional. I guess I never I haven't

38
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.919
really thought about it until just now. I'm kind of emotional thinking about it's

39
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:35.199
actually done. Yeah, it's actually
done. We've been talking about this for

40
00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:38.919
so long, and it's just one
of those things where it's one thing to

41
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:42.439
talk about it. It's one thing
to go investigate in film. It's another

42
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:46.280
thing to have the finished product uploaded
to YouTube. Yeah. No, I

43
00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:52.360
completely agree. It was an amazing
journey, and I'm just very excited to

44
00:03:52.439 --> 00:03:57.520
get y'all's opinions on everything that we
did for the past year for this documentary.

45
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:00.360
No, let me ask you real
fast. So you've seen toll of

46
00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:02.439
like twenty seconds. You've seen the
introduction, and I made you watch the

47
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:10.520
credits and that's all you've seen.
Did it exceed your expectations given everything going

48
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:14.759
on? Oh? Absolutely absolutely did, Because even just the b roll in

49
00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:17.319
the beginning, I was like,
well, god, damn, that's that's

50
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:23.240
some fancy stuff right there. They
ain't your backwoods documentary right there. Yeah,

51
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:28.959
I was very impressed with the finished
product. I didn't think about it.

52
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:31.959
And again, it's it's just it's
one thing to be there in the

53
00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:34.879
moment. It's another thing to see
it, you know, the polished finished

54
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:39.639
product. And yeah, I'm excited
to see everyone's response. We're going to

55
00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:45.879
be doing a lot of media for
Phantom Farm. That's the name I kind

56
00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:47.160
of slipped there, but you know
what, we can announce that now.

57
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:51.079
We actually announced it over on Phantoms
and Monsters because it kind of it just

58
00:04:51.160 --> 00:04:55.439
kind of felt fitting. Speaking of
which, if you guys missed our interview

59
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:57.879
last Friday, I know there's a
lot of comments on Facebook saying, hey,

60
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:00.000
I missed it. They have uploaded
the full thing to YouTube, So

61
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.959
if you go the Fantoms and Monsters
YouTube channel, you can see our Britney

62
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:06.600
with Tales in the Dark. Yeah, you'll see the entire interview and that

63
00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:10.319
was a lot of fun. But
yeah, the documentary is called Phantom Farm.

64
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:14.319
The patrons will get to see it
before anybody does, including you know,

65
00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:17.160
the YouTube, Amazon Prime everything.
It'll go up on Patreon. First,

66
00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:21.600
we're going to do a watch party. I'm not sure right now.

67
00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:27.759
The tentative release for this is mid
February. We're going to do a Patreon

68
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:30.920
watch party before then, probably a
week or two before then. So as

69
00:05:30.920 --> 00:05:33.199
soon as we have a final date
and time, I will let everyone know.

70
00:05:33.279 --> 00:05:35.879
But this is going to be one
of the few that we're gonna schedule

71
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:39.319
pretty far in advance. I want
to make sure everyone that wants to make

72
00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:44.240
it can make it, because again
we're talking, well over a thousand hours

73
00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:47.959
of editing went into this thing.
I don't know, it's a thousand too

74
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:51.639
little or too much. I'm not
sure, but a ridiculous amount of time

75
00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:57.079
went into this project and it's an
absolute labor of love, and I hope

76
00:05:57.079 --> 00:06:01.680
everyone appreciates it and enjoys it as
much as we have in the shitty thing.

77
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:03.879
As I was kind of talking to
Tyler about this this week, He's

78
00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:06.000
like, you know, we got
a plan in the next one, now,

79
00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:09.959
right, And I was like,
let me let me enjoy the first

80
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:12.920
one. Yeah, let me enjoy
this victory lap real quick, Tyler,

81
00:06:12.959 --> 00:06:15.040
Why don't you just calm it down? Yeah? But it's it's exciting.

82
00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:17.720
So I think you guys will enjoy
it. And again you'll hear us talk

83
00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:20.519
about this a lot, especially as
we get closer to the release day.

84
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:24.920
And if you are a patron or
you considering enjoining Patreon, now it's a

85
00:06:24.920 --> 00:06:27.560
great time. Keep an eye out. I will make a post in there

86
00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:31.439
probably tomorrow after the cast watch party, and we'll go ahead and plan a

87
00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:33.680
date, like I said, as
early as we possibly can, because I

88
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:39.000
want everyone to have a chance to
watch this thing. Absolutely so apart from

89
00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:42.480
that, Miss Brittany, it's gonna
be an exciting weekend because we have a

90
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:46.720
Bengals playoff game this Sunday. Yes
we do. I've been a Bengals fan

91
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:49.519
my entire life. I have never
no, I'm going to cut you off.

92
00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:53.879
I have never been able to say
two years in a row, we're

93
00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:58.319
watching a Bengals playoff game. The
amount of stuff that's happened with the Bengals

94
00:06:58.360 --> 00:07:02.360
in the last two weeks has been
history in the making. For one but

95
00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:08.040
two, it's been absolutely ludicrous and
insane. I mean we started off,

96
00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:13.720
I was looking at the Vegas stats. There was not a single Statician,

97
00:07:14.279 --> 00:07:18.079
not a single one that had the
Cincinnati Bengals making it to the wild card

98
00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:24.839
game of the playoffs, let alone
being division champions. That's how shitty we

99
00:07:24.879 --> 00:07:27.480
had starting this season. Then Joe
Burrows like, hey, hold my cigar,

100
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:33.759
watch it I'm about to do.
Yeah, it's a dream come true

101
00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:38.000
for you. Got so much good
things happened this weekend. The thing is,

102
00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:42.000
I have been a bruised and beaten
Bengals fan for thirty years, and

103
00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:45.360
for like three now I can say, you know what, it's cool to

104
00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:48.040
be a Bengals fan for the first
time in my fucking life. It's still

105
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:53.399
hilarious though, to hear the commentators
still shit talk the Bengals and they will

106
00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:58.079
openly say, well, I just
it's so easy to talk to the Bengals,

107
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:01.079
so that's why I do it.
It's kind of it's a force of

108
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:01.959
habit at this point. You know, we're just used to the Bengals.

109
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:05.519
I'm underperforming. Fuck you, we
went to the Super Bowl last year,

110
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:09.759
sir. You put some respect on
Joe Burrow's name. Yeah, basically,

111
00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:13.079
oh yeah, And again, if
this is your first episode tuning in to

112
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:15.879
Tales from the Dark Friday shows,
yeah, it's Friday, baby. We

113
00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:18.199
like that a little bit more fun
and we kind of don't take things as

114
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:22.439
serious because one of the weekend,
this is an exciting weekend for us because

115
00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:26.199
a lot of times January February is
written him my slow month. This year

116
00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:30.600
is not shaping up to be Oh
god, no, So I think it's

117
00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:35.440
just going to be an uphill and
then downhill battle when it comes to content

118
00:08:35.559 --> 00:08:39.399
this year and ours Shenanigans we're gonna
get into. I'm definitely excited. I

119
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:41.919
don't even know. Like that's the
thing though, Like I know we need

120
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:46.120
to get into our episode. But
when I think till this year, I

121
00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:48.840
don't even know what we're gonna do, Like where we're gonna go? Yeah,

122
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:52.919
like we have done so much in
the last couple of years, Like

123
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:56.320
what are we gonna do? Are
we just gonna go get full blown abducted

124
00:08:56.639 --> 00:08:58.799
by a ritual? Like what what? What's the next step? Well,

125
00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:01.320
there is one thing I can say
for sure that we're doing this year.

126
00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:05.159
I just don't know when we are
going to go to the Sally House this

127
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:11.799
year. Oh yeah, I've been
having some NonStop synchronicities with the Sally House

128
00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:16.000
and for some reason, so we
actually almost went but a week ago,

129
00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:20.000
two weeks ago. Yeh, they
almost made the drive to from fucking Ohio

130
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:22.399
to Kansas to go do this.
Well, it's it's one of those weird

131
00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:26.919
things where as an investigator, there's
like your bucket list of investigations, right,

132
00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:31.200
like places that everyone goes to,
every TV show, every movie has

133
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:35.240
been to, and you know the
big ones like Waverley, Ohio State reforma

134
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:39.720
Tory, Saint Augustine, those are
your big like, you know you have

135
00:09:39.759 --> 00:09:43.200
to go see them. But Sally
House has grown in popularity, and so

136
00:09:43.720 --> 00:09:45.600
I kind of just put it in
the back of my mind, like the

137
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:48.159
waiting list is gonna be seven eight
months, if not longer, because like

138
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:50.639
Waverley, for example, can take
ten to twelve months to get into and

139
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:56.559
I figured the cost would just be
insane because some of these places will charge

140
00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:01.720
four hundred dollars, six hundred dollars, one thousand dollars and up, and

141
00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:03.840
some of them who are charging thousand
plus. It's not even for a full

142
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:07.000
night investigation. Yeah, you get
to book four hour you book a four

143
00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:11.080
hour block and it's usually eight to
midnight and depending on the time of the

144
00:10:11.159 --> 00:10:15.720
year, that means three hours of
darkness if you're lucky. Yeah, So

145
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:18.360
when I kind of like, fuck
it, I'm gonna look into Sally House

146
00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:20.600
and I saw it. Sally House
is like one hundred and twenty five bucks,

147
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:24.120
and I was floored because some of
these locations, like I said,

148
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:28.679
that, are you know, your
big mount rushmore of paranormal ghost hunts.

149
00:10:30.600 --> 00:10:33.440
They cost so much money. You
have to plan way in advance, and

150
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:37.080
then in some cases you have to
make content out of it. And with

151
00:10:37.120 --> 00:10:41.480
the Sally House, I'm not sure
what we're gonna do because that's one of

152
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:43.960
those I just want to experience it. I wouldn't be shocked if we do

153
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:46.440
a two night thing there. One
night, we film one night it's just

154
00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:50.080
me being a kid in a candy
store, but it's actually a chubby kid

155
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:54.440
in a demon house. That's what
this is going to be. That's it.

156
00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:58.440
That's the new T shirt right there. Chubby kid going into a demon

157
00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:01.440
house said a lollipop he's gonna get
exactly. Let me let me know if

158
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:05.639
you guys want to sponsor by Chef
Boyardy, speaking of which I don't know

159
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:09.720
if I talked about this. I
got a mysterious package the other day.

160
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:13.559
Oh yeah, So mysterious. So
well, it was because I thought,

161
00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:16.080
I'm like, oh, Brittany ordered
something because it was in the mailbox.

162
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:18.799
I'm like, I didn't think of
any of it. And I open it.

163
00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:22.919
I go and get it and it
says from Austin Lawrence and I'm like,

164
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:26.120
I forgot to give Auston my home
address. This could be dangerous.

165
00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:33.519
I'm in danger. So I opened
it up and it's got these two bowls

166
00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:39.240
that are Chef Boyardy branded from Donnosaurs
and Chef Boyardy go together. I'm assuming

167
00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:43.080
that those are from like the late
nineties. Yeah, they look old.

168
00:11:43.240 --> 00:11:46.919
And then there were two Super Bowl
coins from like ninety two and ninety three

169
00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:52.919
where Chef Boyardy sponsored the Super Bowl. Yep, and they're commemorative coins from

170
00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:56.480
that super Bowl. The nineties was
such a weird time. The thing about

171
00:11:56.480 --> 00:12:01.799
the nineties is if if you didn't
grow up in the kindes, you don't

172
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:07.360
really, in my opinion, understand
modern satire. And I say that because

173
00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:11.879
I'm finally watching Supernatural. Oh my
god, finally we finally bit the bullet

174
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:15.440
and did it all right? And
I again, we're gonna get into the

175
00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:18.240
episode in just a minute, but
this is this is my third or fourth

176
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:22.440
time watching Supernatural. Well, okay, so Tyler's been telling me forever to

177
00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:26.159
watch it. You've been telling me
to watch it. The fans had been

178
00:12:26.159 --> 00:12:30.440
telling me to watch it. And
I don't know what I thought Supernatural was

179
00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:33.200
about. It wasn't. It's not
what it's about. I know that for

180
00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:35.559
sure. I know spoilers were only
on season two. Guys. Yeah I

181
00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:39.720
had back when, back when seasons
were like thirty episodes, well about just

182
00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:41.679
ten. Yeah, So this way, no one spoils it for me.

183
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:45.559
Because Tyler's almost spoiled it a handful
of times. I will beat him.

184
00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:52.519
The episode that I just finished was
Sam Ordine told Sam what his father told

185
00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:56.399
him on his deathbed. That's where
I'm at. So don't tell me anything

186
00:12:56.440 --> 00:12:58.200
after this. Don't ask me about
characters and some of the people who married

187
00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:01.720
people and I want to hear it
because I don't. I'm tyl If you

188
00:13:01.799 --> 00:13:03.960
listen to this, actually, i'll
see you tomorrow. I will beat your

189
00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:07.320
ass if you try to spoil this
for him. I'm invested right now,

190
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:15.000
and I'm I'm very uh it is
it is good They play fast and loose

191
00:13:15.240 --> 00:13:20.039
with with facts when it comes to
this stuff, but um, a lot

192
00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:22.799
of it for the time period.
When did it come out two thousand and

193
00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:26.559
five, Yeah, something like that. For the time period, it's pretty

194
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:30.120
pretty accurate. I give them a
lot of props, especially on the demonology

195
00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:33.440
side. And somebody on their writing
staff knows what they're talking about with the

196
00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:37.840
cryptics too. They also know that
that what they're talking about doesn't sell,

197
00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:41.519
so they do jazz it up a
little bit, But there is a factual

198
00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:46.360
basis to most things in that show
up to this point. I understand there's

199
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:48.440
fifteen seasons, there's a lot of
time for them to ruin that, but

200
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:54.639
up to this point, I'm pretty
fucking impressed. You just wait, Tyler

201
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:56.240
keeps telling me the same thing.
Just wait, wait till they get to

202
00:13:56.279 --> 00:14:00.480
this episode and this person, I'm
like, shut the fuck up, don't

203
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:03.840
tell me anything. I don't And
again, I don't know how I missed

204
00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:07.120
it, because Tyler made a point. Today's like this is right up your

205
00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:09.600
alley. It's everything you love.
It's you know, it's it's guns,

206
00:14:09.960 --> 00:14:13.440
it's muscle cars, it's ghosts,
like, it's everything you love. And

207
00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:16.039
I'm like, you know, you
got a fucking point. Honestly, I

208
00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:18.279
just don't know why I never watched
it. I'm excited, but uh,

209
00:14:18.600 --> 00:14:22.759
I think I think honestly though,
I think Supernatural is perceived as like a

210
00:14:22.799 --> 00:14:26.159
girly show because you know, a
lot of a lot of girls, including

211
00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:31.759
me, yeah, crushed on Dean
particularly, but not a little bit of

212
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:35.840
Sam. But it's really I think
it's for all audiences. I really well

213
00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:39.080
to show the impact it has.
We have two Raptors and arc named after

214
00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:43.120
the Winchesters, so only one.
I thought we named the baby one Sam.

215
00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:48.480
No, oh no, that's that's
that's Scotty. Scotty. Well,

216
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:52.759
yeah, because I have a bo
Okay, well, we'll talk about the

217
00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:56.159
rest of some Patreon let's let's get
into today's episode a little bit. So

218
00:14:56.639 --> 00:15:00.200
I thought we did this episode,
and I look through our archive. We

219
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:03.960
did not. We did night shift
horror stories, which is weird because I've

220
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:07.240
been in the security industry my entire
adult life, like with the exception of

221
00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:11.720
doing some other things either part time
or as a second job. When before,

222
00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:18.399
it's weird that we never really dove
into security guard horror stories. About

223
00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:22.720
said, horse stories horror stories.
You gotta watch out for the security horses.

224
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:26.120
So it's well, it's great now
because like you are a full time

225
00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:31.159
content creator, so you can tell
all the ludicrous stories and all the bullshit

226
00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:33.759
that you went through. I still
have to change certain details out, and

227
00:15:33.799 --> 00:15:39.480
I can only tell stuff about previous
companies I work for. But there's a

228
00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:41.679
few stories that come to mind.
One I know I've told the story,

229
00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:45.360
but I'm gonna get into it in
a second. And the other one I

230
00:15:45.399 --> 00:15:48.919
remembered when I was brand new into
security and I worked as a flex and

231
00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:54.279
what that is is I worked all
three shifts and I worked anywhere anytime,

232
00:15:54.320 --> 00:15:58.120
basically like how security usually works.
You have a branch office or it'll be

233
00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:03.039
called a district in certain companies,
and flex officers are like, if Brittany

234
00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:06.960
calls off tomorrow, I would come
workers shift, But then if Terence calls

235
00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:10.840
off and Toledo, I would go
work his shift the next day, and

236
00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:14.440
you get a shift premium, but
it usually doesn't cover all the travel and

237
00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:18.000
then the headache of working all three
shifts is rough. Yeah, but I

238
00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:25.399
remember being a flex officer and I
got a call to go work in Fairborn

239
00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:27.840
about five minutes in right path.
There was a company that was shutting down

240
00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:33.519
and they were moving warehouses from one
to another. And they were a pretty

241
00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:36.039
big tech company. I don't even
know if I've told you this story,

242
00:16:36.440 --> 00:16:38.960
but they were a pretty big tech
company and they did a lot of like

243
00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:44.559
online server storage. So this is
like before cloud storage was a normally before

244
00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:48.120
you can go on Google Drive and
get you three terabytes of storage were twelve

245
00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:52.039
bucks. Like before that, you
had companies that you would sign up on

246
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.600
their website and you would use their
cloud storage. Well, I arrived at

247
00:16:56.639 --> 00:17:03.720
this post the dude just fucking leaves, which is very common. I think

248
00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:06.599
you told me that on the way
to Columbus. No, No, that's

249
00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:08.960
a different story that I'll tell because
again these I was a security guards.

250
00:17:08.960 --> 00:17:11.519
I can tell these horror stories.
But I get to this place to dude

251
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:17.839
just fucking leaves, okay, and
nothing. So I go and I look

252
00:17:17.839 --> 00:17:22.920
for the post orders, which post
orders every site or a location that works.

253
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.720
I'm just supposed to have one.
Yeah, their post orders was literally

254
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:30.960
a sign in sheet and then a
bathroom break, Like you're supposed to write

255
00:17:30.960 --> 00:17:36.680
down your bathroom breaks. Fuck that, I'm not doing that. I'm alone

256
00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:40.400
in this giant warehouse. So I
call my boss. I'm like, hey,

257
00:17:40.480 --> 00:17:41.839
what am I supposed to do?
Look, he's like, oh,

258
00:17:41.880 --> 00:17:44.240
just read the post orders and then
just follow that, have a good night.

259
00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:48.160
Hangs up. That sounds about all
right, okay, fuck me.

260
00:17:48.559 --> 00:17:52.240
So I'm just doing rounds, you
know, doing the normal stuff. And

261
00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:56.200
it's hilarious because I found out okay, hey, let let me let me

262
00:17:56.359 --> 00:17:59.680
retrack a little bit. So I'm
doing my rounds. And most of the

263
00:17:59.720 --> 00:18:03.200
services were torn down from the walls, and this was a massive warehouse full

264
00:18:03.599 --> 00:18:07.599
of like like Florida ceiling server space. Oh my god, and most of

265
00:18:07.599 --> 00:18:11.359
it was gone, but the racks
were still there. Well, I've been

266
00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:15.480
a tech guy as long as I
can remember, and I love seeing just

267
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:19.240
how things work, how they go
together. I had never seen digital storage

268
00:18:19.400 --> 00:18:22.519
set up like this, not in
a professional way. Some looking at the

269
00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:25.880
racks and stuff, and I see
that some of the lights are still on

270
00:18:26.160 --> 00:18:30.079
and some of the data lights are
still blinking, meaning it's still transmitting data.

271
00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:34.680
So I'm kind of looking around and
I check this one little closeted area

272
00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:41.599
and I noticed this little baby Mac
Mini. And when I say Mac Minie,

273
00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:45.119
I don't mean like the modern Mac. I mean the two looking television

274
00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:51.359
mac Minis and so I'm looking at
it and I was like, man,

275
00:18:52.039 --> 00:18:56.759
this room is fucking hot. I
put my hand by where the radiator would

276
00:18:56.759 --> 00:19:00.759
be and it's just blowing out hot. I'm like, this thing is crashing.

277
00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:03.440
So I'm gonna do the right thing
and I'm gonna turn it off.

278
00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:07.880
I turned it off, go back
and do my rounds. Think nothing of

279
00:19:07.880 --> 00:19:12.359
it. About three hours later,
two guys come to the front door and

280
00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:17.559
they're buzzing the front door. I
didn't know the procedures for letting people in,

281
00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:21.000
so I go and I open it
and they said, hey, is

282
00:19:21.000 --> 00:19:23.240
there a fire? And I was
like, who the fuck are you?

283
00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:27.480
I don't that's a weird question to
ask a total stranger. And he's He's

284
00:19:27.519 --> 00:19:33.680
like, oh, well, I'm
the manager for blank company. We had

285
00:19:33.680 --> 00:19:37.599
a massive outage. And I was
like, no, there's no fire,

286
00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:41.839
it's just me. Do you have
any idea anything to show that your work

287
00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:45.559
here in The guy answering a business
card. I'm like, that's great,

288
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:51.079
I need something like a batge and
he's like, I managed these fucking warehouses.

289
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:52.440
You're gonna let me in. I'm
like, you didn't have keys,

290
00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:56.319
So I don't know who you are. Well, he ends up calling my

291
00:19:56.319 --> 00:19:59.039
boss, who calls me. I
get chewed out because this is the client.

292
00:19:59.200 --> 00:20:02.519
Again, I didn't know who this
was. I let him in and

293
00:20:02.559 --> 00:20:06.519
he head straight to this little storage
room. Oh god, and he says,

294
00:20:06.599 --> 00:20:11.400
did you turn off the fucking Mac
Mini? I said, yeah,

295
00:20:11.480 --> 00:20:14.480
it was like blowing out so much
hot air, like it smelled like it

296
00:20:14.519 --> 00:20:18.440
was catching on fire. He turns
it back on. About ten minutes later,

297
00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:21.240
he gets a call from it.
Hey, everything's back up and running.

298
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:29.680
This multi multi million dollar company was
using the bootleg the X thirty two

299
00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:36.599
process for the entire cloud service.
Oh my god, off this Mac Mini

300
00:20:36.960 --> 00:20:40.400
and he goes. I said,
well, like, how was I supposed

301
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:44.759
to know anywhere else? Like you're
supposed to turn computers off, especially if

302
00:20:44.759 --> 00:20:47.359
I think they're going to catch on
fire. And he's like, yeah,

303
00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:51.759
we should have had a sign up. You shut the whole company down.

304
00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:57.599
And so I'm apologizing and I'm laughing
about this because I'm like this all over

305
00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:04.759
Mac Mini, ancient piece of fucking
hardware is running this entire multi million dollar

306
00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:08.519
company. And he says, yeah, we don't know how to get the

307
00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:11.599
boot process off of this, no
one has been able to do it?

308
00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:19.160
Are you serious? So instead of
starting over, they just kept building off

309
00:21:19.160 --> 00:21:25.440
of it? Yeah and investing.
Well why? Why? This is hilarious

310
00:21:25.480 --> 00:21:30.519
And I think where the inspiration for
this entire episode came from is I saw

311
00:21:30.519 --> 00:21:36.559
a Twitter picture that said the exact
same thing happened at Twitter. Are you

312
00:21:36.640 --> 00:21:41.759
serious? Verbatim? Why? I
don't know. I'm assuming that that's all

313
00:21:41.799 --> 00:21:47.720
they have when they built it,
and then the technology advanced too fast and

314
00:21:47.759 --> 00:21:52.160
there was no way to pull it
off of the old hardware. But as

315
00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:55.440
a tech guy, that doesn't make
sense to me. But I'm also not

316
00:21:55.480 --> 00:21:59.599
a Mac guy. I tried.
I'm not, you know, I don't

317
00:21:59.599 --> 00:22:03.279
like Mac go West, so I
have no idea. And everyone I tell

318
00:22:03.279 --> 00:22:04.200
a story too, they're like,
you're full of shit, You're making this

319
00:22:04.279 --> 00:22:10.079
up. You're that's exactly what clients
would do. And it's hilarious because I

320
00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:12.440
end up getting a call from the
client like a year later, said Hey,

321
00:22:12.519 --> 00:22:15.160
we're gonna start doing full time security. We'd like you to come run

322
00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:21.279
our facility. I'm like, I
doubt it because why did they call you?

323
00:22:21.319 --> 00:22:22.680
Of all, I'm like, I'm
the guy who did this and like,

324
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:26.079
oh, we thought this was the
person who'd been working here for like

325
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:29.559
three years. I'm like, no, Like, we're the last phone number

326
00:22:29.599 --> 00:22:30.839
that was written in the log book, so we thought that that's who you

327
00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:33.680
were. Like, no, I'm
the guy who shut down your service,

328
00:22:33.680 --> 00:22:37.680
and the dude hangs up. He
just straight up hung up the phone on

329
00:22:37.720 --> 00:22:40.160
me. I was like, all
right, fuck it, what you know

330
00:22:40.200 --> 00:22:42.640
what? I deserve this wholeheartedly.
But I had it on speaker in front

331
00:22:42.680 --> 00:22:45.960
of like two guards, and I
just told him a story like the week

332
00:22:45.960 --> 00:22:48.559
before. I'm like, now,
do you guys believe me? They lose

333
00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:52.440
their shit laughing, and I was
like, you know what, I deserve

334
00:22:52.599 --> 00:22:56.559
this because I shut down an entire
company. Why are they running it off

335
00:22:56.599 --> 00:23:03.039
of mac Many It's gotta be,
like I said, I'm sure that there

336
00:23:03.119 --> 00:23:08.519
is a very convoluted story for why. But what's funny is I asked the

337
00:23:08.559 --> 00:23:12.200
guy who I was covering the shift
for and he said, the last thing

338
00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:17.279
they came and got from the whole
warehouse they sent an entire truck in because

339
00:23:17.559 --> 00:23:18.920
that's what they had been doing.
They've been backing up these fifty three foot

340
00:23:18.960 --> 00:23:23.119
trucks. They sent a fifty three
foot truck just to grab this one mac.

341
00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:27.640
Oh my god. And I'm assuming
that was like a kind of a

342
00:23:27.680 --> 00:23:30.599
freight error that they did. They
thought they had a whole nother loboon an

343
00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:33.880
actuality. They just had this one
Mac. And the guy I said,

344
00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:38.319
did they say anything, he said, yeah, they they paid more money

345
00:23:38.839 --> 00:23:41.880
to have a driver, to ensure
that a driver hadn't had a break or

346
00:23:42.079 --> 00:23:45.680
had already had his ten hour break
so he could come straight here, which

347
00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:51.279
tells me they were still relying on
six seven months later on this mac mini.

348
00:23:51.640 --> 00:23:53.279
Oh my god. Yeah, that
was that was fucking rough. What

349
00:23:53.319 --> 00:23:56.640
about you when you think horror stories, I mean, apart from your ex

350
00:23:56.720 --> 00:24:02.240
client, does anything else really come
to mind for you? Uh? Yeah,

351
00:24:02.240 --> 00:24:07.920
that that definitely for sure. No, not really. I mean third

352
00:24:08.000 --> 00:24:15.200
shift night shift is just a bunch
of like shenanigans. That was my least

353
00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:18.799
favorite shift to staff and to manage. Yeah, Like, I don't know

354
00:24:18.839 --> 00:24:23.000
who in our audience is a third
shift or but I'm telling you every single

355
00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:26.279
person i'm at who wanted to be
on third shift, which I do kind

356
00:24:26.319 --> 00:24:30.759
of enjoy. The third shifts sleep
schedule is like fucking weirdos, and they

357
00:24:30.759 --> 00:24:34.160
do not want to listen. They
don't want to do their job. It's

358
00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:37.559
it's hard. It was rough.
But no, I don't think I had

359
00:24:37.559 --> 00:24:41.839
any crazy stories unless you remember me
telling you one. I mean, really,

360
00:24:41.880 --> 00:24:44.599
it's it's funny because people all you
know, you hear people talk about

361
00:24:44.599 --> 00:24:48.319
bridezillas all the time. Oh God, bridezillas are nothing. Client zilla's are

362
00:24:51.160 --> 00:24:53.240
I don't know because I dealt with
both. No, clients are worse.

363
00:24:53.359 --> 00:24:57.839
I've dealt with clients with with brides. I could always understand, this is

364
00:24:57.839 --> 00:25:02.759
your most this is the most important
day in your adult life up to this

365
00:25:02.839 --> 00:25:04.559
point. With Brian, do you
only have to deal with them up until

366
00:25:04.599 --> 00:25:10.799
the wedding and then it's done.
I have had clients call my officers and

367
00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:14.640
say, you know, it's wet
out in the parking lot. Why aren't

368
00:25:14.640 --> 00:25:18.599
you do anything about this because it's
fucking raining? Okay, so what's the

369
00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:22.920
plan? Let me go talk to
God real fast. What the fuck do

370
00:25:22.960 --> 00:25:26.319
you want me to do about?
No, it's okay. You just go

371
00:25:26.359 --> 00:25:30.279
over to Dubai and get the cloud
seating, please, cloud seating for technology.

372
00:25:30.599 --> 00:25:33.839
I have had some of the worst. Walmart is another horrible one.

373
00:25:33.880 --> 00:25:37.559
I used to do I used to
staff security for walmarts, the ones like

374
00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:41.759
within I don't know four towns of
where we live now, and I would

375
00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:45.039
get calls from Walmart. Hey,
we just shock the cameras. Your guards

376
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:48.680
haven't gone inside at all to night. Do they have the keys? I

377
00:25:48.680 --> 00:25:51.079
said, do you have the keys? Why would they have the keys?

378
00:25:51.119 --> 00:25:53.960
We're shut down, so why would
they go inside? You know what we're

379
00:25:53.960 --> 00:25:57.279
paying you to do? Rounds?
Get him out of the car now.

380
00:25:57.720 --> 00:26:00.720
So I would call, hey,
John, can you get to the car

381
00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:03.519
and go do rounds? Bob?
The doors are locked? I know,

382
00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:07.160
walk up to the door. Then
they would stand in front the door and

383
00:26:07.160 --> 00:26:08.559
I call, I call the client. Here you watching the camera? Yeah,

384
00:26:08.559 --> 00:26:11.720
why is your guy just standing in
front of the door he can't get

385
00:26:11.759 --> 00:26:15.759
in? Well? What am I
paying you for? You lock the fucking

386
00:26:15.880 --> 00:26:19.559
door? What do you want him
to do? Yep? Can you explain

387
00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:22.519
this to me? Well, I
just think there was a miscommunication here.

388
00:26:22.880 --> 00:26:27.680
That is the like number one reasoning
a client will give you. There's just

389
00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:33.559
this been miscommunication, not that I
didn't know what I actually wanted done or

390
00:26:33.640 --> 00:26:37.240
know nothing about security. You didn't
know, So I'm gonna treat you like

391
00:26:37.279 --> 00:26:40.680
the dumbest person that's ever existed.
Yeah. Yeah, so my last story

392
00:26:40.680 --> 00:26:44.680
before we dive into some of the
internet's horror stories. And I know I've

393
00:26:44.720 --> 00:26:47.119
told I don't know if I told
this on Patreon, if I told this

394
00:26:47.160 --> 00:26:52.599
on the main show, But a
couple of years ago, I had some

395
00:26:52.720 --> 00:26:56.440
very interesting guys working for me on
night shift, and I'll stick with interesting.

396
00:26:56.519 --> 00:27:00.880
They weren't the great night chief man. Yeah, they weren't the greatest

397
00:27:00.880 --> 00:27:04.319
monitoring the gate, but they showed
up and they kind of wanted to be

398
00:27:04.400 --> 00:27:07.440
there. That's all you can ask
for for third shift security officers. And

399
00:27:07.720 --> 00:27:11.160
let's be honest, other managers listen, like, not my night shift,

400
00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:14.559
Okay, yeah, you don't know. Go in there and find out.

401
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:17.920
Go in there at three in the
morning, you a surprise audit and three

402
00:27:17.960 --> 00:27:19.359
in the morning, and then come
back to me about that. I've been

403
00:27:19.400 --> 00:27:25.359
doing this a decade and I have
overseen over three thousand employees. At various

404
00:27:25.400 --> 00:27:27.480
points in my career, I've met
like four people on night shift. I'm

405
00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:32.839
like, that's a rock star,
four of three thousand. So I'm just

406
00:27:32.839 --> 00:27:37.559
saying yeah, but it's also the
job because the majority of security jobs,

407
00:27:37.680 --> 00:27:42.519
like It's funny because in movies they
act like security guards make money. Now,

408
00:27:42.599 --> 00:27:45.640
on average, it's usually a dollar
or two above minimum wage, and

409
00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:51.720
it's your very Um, you're pulling
teeth if you try to get more.

410
00:27:51.799 --> 00:27:55.200
Yeah, it's the only ones who
really make more. Are are gonna be

411
00:27:55.240 --> 00:27:57.519
contracts that are doing a lot of
technical work, and then they're they're gonna

412
00:27:57.519 --> 00:28:02.440
be underpaid for the level of technical
work they're doing. And we're not talking

413
00:28:02.440 --> 00:28:04.200
about arm security either. Yeah,
yeah, that's a whole different ball game.

414
00:28:04.200 --> 00:28:07.519
But even arm security, I think
is underpaid. Well when it comes

415
00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:11.119
to security, I think a lot
of people who don't know the industry or

416
00:28:11.160 --> 00:28:18.839
know what security does, expects like
a cop or military level service. That's

417
00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:22.440
another misunderstanding that happens a lot with
security. Not to say that there's not

418
00:28:22.519 --> 00:28:26.079
some full on Paul Blarts out there, because there there are, but the

419
00:28:26.160 --> 00:28:30.880
expectations of the client and the contract
itself. If you do get a contract

420
00:28:30.920 --> 00:28:34.640
that, let's say, pays fifteen
dollars an hour, you have to do

421
00:28:34.960 --> 00:28:41.400
literally ten times the amount of work. Then the contracts like the client's employees.

422
00:28:41.480 --> 00:28:45.039
Yeah, and again there are some
outliers, but they are very few

423
00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:48.039
and far between. Yeah, but
so kind of back to what happened.

424
00:28:48.039 --> 00:28:52.960
So we I get a phone call
and it's just, hey, Bob,

425
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:56.359
someone broke in and it's been a
few years. I'm sure, I'm a

426
00:28:56.759 --> 00:28:57.880
I'm sure I told the story better
the first time. But they said,

427
00:28:57.880 --> 00:29:02.559
someone broke in. We don't know
what to do, and I was like,

428
00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:08.440
I don't know either. Let me
let me come in and see.

429
00:29:08.480 --> 00:29:11.200
Because nine times out of time,
when a guard calls at two three in

430
00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:15.000
the morning, it's it's not actually
what they say, yeah, and you're

431
00:29:15.079 --> 00:29:21.000
exhausted, so your brain's like,
either they or I am blowing the side

432
00:29:21.000 --> 00:29:23.880
of proportion one of the two.
So I go into work and on the

433
00:29:23.920 --> 00:29:26.440
way and this is one of my
brains are realizing some of them was wrong.

434
00:29:26.880 --> 00:29:30.799
I start to get phone calls from
day shift supervisor, some superintendence,

435
00:29:30.960 --> 00:29:34.319
and my officers are calling me again
and again and again. It's like,

436
00:29:34.400 --> 00:29:37.359
oh, this, this could be
bad. So I end up getting there

437
00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:42.319
and the police are there, and
these aren't like regular police, like we're

438
00:29:42.319 --> 00:29:45.680
talking like a nine units. The
whole nine was there, and I'm like,

439
00:29:45.680 --> 00:29:49.960
well, what is going on?
We got ourselves, sofie, yes,

440
00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:57.119
So I go inside and I my
guards are clearly shaken up, and

441
00:29:57.160 --> 00:30:00.160
I'm like, what the fuck happened? Like, oh well, the cops

442
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:03.759
want to talk to you. So
I start talking to the cops and they

443
00:30:03.759 --> 00:30:04.359
said, how did this happen?
I'm like, I don't even know what's

444
00:30:04.359 --> 00:30:07.480
going on. I just got here. Let's start, you know, square

445
00:30:07.480 --> 00:30:12.039
one, and we'll work our way
up and through. It took like fifteen

446
00:30:12.039 --> 00:30:15.160
people to tell me the full story. But what had happened was a young

447
00:30:15.200 --> 00:30:21.880
man hile methamphetamine, walked in the
front gate, walked out of the front

448
00:30:21.880 --> 00:30:26.279
gate, hopped our fence, which
has barbed wire on it, Like this

449
00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:30.240
is how you knew he wasn't a
sound mind and spirit. He hops the

450
00:30:30.279 --> 00:30:33.359
fence and he goes into one of
our back office buildings. So how it

451
00:30:33.400 --> 00:30:37.319
works is our back office has two
doors. One you can just open up

452
00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:41.960
and it has a little waiting room
lobby so people can sit in for meetings

453
00:30:41.039 --> 00:30:44.880
or they're they're from meeting and someone
can come and get him. The second

454
00:30:44.920 --> 00:30:48.359
one requires a badge to get into
and it's a pretty heavy duty door and

455
00:30:48.440 --> 00:30:52.400
it was designed that way purposely because, like the site superintendent, the important

456
00:30:52.400 --> 00:30:56.680
people are in this back. Yeah, access to the offices, and this

457
00:30:56.720 --> 00:31:00.960
guy gets into the waiting area of
the office. Well, he tries to

458
00:31:02.000 --> 00:31:04.440
get in the door. It doesn't
work. So he breaks the badge reader

459
00:31:04.640 --> 00:31:10.079
off of the wall. And again
people see that in movies they think it

460
00:31:10.160 --> 00:31:14.079
works. So I'll just brought just
break that badge reader. It doesn't work

461
00:31:14.119 --> 00:31:18.519
like that any decent security system.
Second, that badge reader's broken. Yes,

462
00:31:18.640 --> 00:31:26.759
it's been going to lockdown so I
can't laugh without okay. He goes

463
00:31:26.799 --> 00:31:30.039
in the closet of our break area, which is used for like umbrellas and

464
00:31:30.079 --> 00:31:33.720
people's jackets and stuff, and he's
like, I've seen mission impossible. I

465
00:31:33.799 --> 00:31:38.799
know what to do. Next.
He brings over a chair, breaks open

466
00:31:38.799 --> 00:31:45.039
the ceiling tiles, climbs up into
the fucking ceiling. Yea, he makes

467
00:31:45.079 --> 00:31:52.519
it a good like twenty feet into
the office and he falls through the fucking

468
00:31:52.680 --> 00:31:56.039
ceiling. Yeah that sounds about right. He gets up and again this is

469
00:31:56.039 --> 00:32:02.079
how I knew this dude meant business, but he didn't know which business he

470
00:32:02.200 --> 00:32:07.920
was in. So he gets up, he sees our curic and this was

471
00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:10.839
like when the business curgs were first. I think, like they really fucking

472
00:32:10.920 --> 00:32:15.920
big ones I could make espresso.
He doesn't know how it works, so

473
00:32:15.000 --> 00:32:19.559
he ended up smashing no joke,
like twenty k cups trying to figure out

474
00:32:19.599 --> 00:32:22.759
how to make himself a cup of
coffee. Oh my god, I'm again,

475
00:32:23.119 --> 00:32:25.200
I don't. I didn't get to
speak with him, so I'm assuming

476
00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:29.680
kind of what happens next. He
gets pissed off that the curate just wasn't

477
00:32:29.799 --> 00:32:34.400
working he needed to do. He
goes over to the accounting office and he's

478
00:32:34.440 --> 00:32:37.079
like, you know what, I've
never I've never used a fire extinguisher,

479
00:32:37.559 --> 00:32:42.759
and he proceeds to grab all the
fire extinguishers off the fucking wall and sprays

480
00:32:42.920 --> 00:32:50.880
the entire we're talking ceiling to floor, sprays the accounting office. I remembered

481
00:32:50.880 --> 00:32:52.799
this detail recently, so I don't
think I told an the original story because

482
00:32:52.839 --> 00:32:55.000
it was in my report and I
was reading through my reports. I was

483
00:32:55.000 --> 00:32:58.039
trying to show I have some new
people that work. I was trying to

484
00:32:58.039 --> 00:33:04.640
show him how to do report writing. He wrote his fucking initials in the

485
00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:07.960
fire extinguisher spray, Oh my god, like like he sprayed on the desk

486
00:33:07.960 --> 00:33:13.559
and then he wrote his initials with
his finger. Okay, so again I'm

487
00:33:13.559 --> 00:33:15.680
assuming at this point this young man
who was just excited to be there,

488
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:22.640
I think he really wanted a job. He he covers himself and this fire

489
00:33:22.640 --> 00:33:29.039
extinguishing fluid whatever it's called. He
gets fucking naked. Oh my god,

490
00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:32.400
this about this is the only part
is that would have verify because the next

491
00:33:32.480 --> 00:33:37.240
off, the next hallway over,
I have a camera. He gets budass

492
00:33:37.359 --> 00:33:40.640
naked. Oh god, walks into
the next hallway and so he kind of

493
00:33:40.680 --> 00:33:45.599
looks back at the camera. His
member is just a flying around. He

494
00:33:45.720 --> 00:33:49.039
looks at the door, and I'm
like, oh, he's in my mind.

495
00:33:49.039 --> 00:33:51.559
I'm again I knew the end of
the story, but I thought I'm

496
00:33:51.559 --> 00:33:55.400
watching it on CCTV. Something's about
the change. Nothing changed. He walks

497
00:33:55.440 --> 00:33:59.759
towards the door that would go outside, turns around and goes back to the

498
00:33:59.799 --> 00:34:05.799
back bathroom. He then takes a
shower. Oh my god, gets out

499
00:34:05.799 --> 00:34:09.480
of the shower, comes back to
the hallway, but ass naked, turns

500
00:34:09.519 --> 00:34:15.159
back around and he's dripping wet.
Goes back into the bathroom for ten fifteen

501
00:34:15.199 --> 00:34:23.360
minutes. He comes back completely dressed
in a uniform for a job. Completely

502
00:34:23.480 --> 00:34:28.800
fucking dressed in a uniform it's the
only closed available, probably, and then

503
00:34:28.840 --> 00:34:32.920
he goes back and tries to make
more coffee. He's just wadden through the

504
00:34:32.960 --> 00:34:38.880
fire EXTINGUI I don't remember exactly how
we caught him in all the other details,

505
00:34:40.079 --> 00:34:45.119
but I have never hated a morning
meeting more than that one, because

506
00:34:45.440 --> 00:34:47.159
I go in and again I have
been there at this point all night.

507
00:34:47.199 --> 00:34:50.840
I went home at like five to
thirty six. I came back like seven

508
00:34:50.920 --> 00:34:54.320
thirty eight o'clock the next morning,
and I'm sitting around the office and there's

509
00:34:54.360 --> 00:34:59.719
every big wig in the company is
all here, yeah, and they're all

510
00:34:59.719 --> 00:35:07.199
looking at me, Well, Bob, how did it happen? And I

511
00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:08.960
was like, I can tell you, but you're not gonna believe, Like

512
00:35:09.039 --> 00:35:13.199
this might be one of those times
it's just better off to just say this

513
00:35:13.320 --> 00:35:20.039
is probably never gonna happen again,
Like we can say that this is never

514
00:35:20.079 --> 00:35:24.000
going to repeat itself ever. And
my client's like, that's a pretty good

515
00:35:24.039 --> 00:35:29.719
answer, but of course that's not
enough for upper management. And I tell

516
00:35:29.800 --> 00:35:34.119
him the whole story, and again
I'm hoping to elicit some last year,

517
00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:37.000
so I'm throwing in the extra.
You know, Dick is swinging. I'm

518
00:35:37.039 --> 00:35:39.719
throwing in all the extra fucking details, hoping to, you know, alleviate

519
00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:44.480
the pressure of this room, because
it felt like a fucking submarine. No

520
00:35:44.519 --> 00:35:47.599
one laughed a single time. Oh, no, chuckle, no nothing.

521
00:35:47.719 --> 00:35:52.639
And I'm like, okay, tough
crowd, crowd um, and that the

522
00:35:53.239 --> 00:35:55.840
this is all over and done with. And my client comes out with me

523
00:35:55.880 --> 00:35:58.920
and he's he's a great guy.
He puts his arm around me, goes

524
00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:05.880
hey. I thought that was pretty
good, and all I thought the rest

525
00:36:05.920 --> 00:36:08.360
of the days like I'm gonna lose
my fucking And I didn't have an office

526
00:36:08.400 --> 00:36:12.519
at this time, so I'm like
up front as these people are signing out

527
00:36:12.679 --> 00:36:15.920
and they're all just staring into my
fucking soul. Oh my god, I'm

528
00:36:15.960 --> 00:36:20.599
like, oh god, I'll tell
you what the people upper management for that

529
00:36:20.639 --> 00:36:24.239
company though, Oh buddy, But
like I said, I usually if you

530
00:36:24.280 --> 00:36:28.800
say meth head dick swinging, it's
gonna get it's gonna you know, you're

531
00:36:28.800 --> 00:36:30.599
gonna chuck, like how a person
are you? If you don't laugh at

532
00:36:30.679 --> 00:36:34.360
that? Come on? Yeah,
And he did like ten thousand dollars in

533
00:36:34.440 --> 00:36:37.440
damage. It was. It was
like really bad, and I'm like,

534
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:38.280
you know, I end up meeting
with the client. He's like, hey,

535
00:36:38.599 --> 00:36:42.000
like they're pretty unhappy with with security. I'm like, you know what,

536
00:36:42.039 --> 00:36:46.800
that's fair. I understand why you're
upset with this um, but again,

537
00:36:46.880 --> 00:36:52.039
like it's never happened before and it
probably won't happen again, at least

538
00:36:52.079 --> 00:36:55.000
not while I'm here. Oh god, yeah, it was just that was

539
00:36:55.039 --> 00:36:59.039
horrible. Then. My only other
nightmares is the amount of time that I've

540
00:36:59.079 --> 00:37:04.519
watched I've given directions to grown men. I've watched their eyes glaze over like

541
00:37:04.559 --> 00:37:07.679
their fucking possess, got it.
Ten minutes later, I get a phone

542
00:37:07.719 --> 00:37:08.840
call, Hey, Bob, that
guy you just sit back. Yeah,

543
00:37:09.039 --> 00:37:14.199
he just hit a fucking building.
Yep. Okay. Now now when you

544
00:37:14.239 --> 00:37:16.519
say building, do you like mean
no, Like he's in the office.

545
00:37:17.760 --> 00:37:22.320
Okay, all right, can you
pick up the pace though, Like I

546
00:37:22.320 --> 00:37:25.880
gotta finish this zoom call. Yeah. The just that truck drivers scare me

547
00:37:27.480 --> 00:37:29.840
and it's fun. Like I never
had a fear of truckers, like when

548
00:37:29.840 --> 00:37:31.519
I got my driver's license, like
everyone usually has a Ca'm afraid of big

549
00:37:31.599 --> 00:37:35.320
riggs. I was because I was, you know, raised in a blue

550
00:37:35.320 --> 00:37:39.119
collar household along with some other stuff, farming and that was very common in

551
00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:42.320
this area. Yeah, so I
was raised, like these guys know what

552
00:37:42.360 --> 00:37:47.000
they're doing. No, they don't. Some drivers are Dale Earnheart reincarnated.

553
00:37:49.239 --> 00:37:52.599
But they are a small sub section
of the trucking population. And again,

554
00:37:53.000 --> 00:37:59.119
I love truckers. I know that
they they are the reason that are not

555
00:37:59.159 --> 00:38:01.599
saying anything bad about truck driving as
an industry. But I'm saying that any

556
00:38:01.679 --> 00:38:05.800
real trucker knows exactly what I'm talking
about. I had to say they are

557
00:38:06.360 --> 00:38:09.039
terrifying. They are terrifying drivers out
there. I have to say one company

558
00:38:09.119 --> 00:38:15.119
name, and every trucker's gonna say, yep, Swift. Oh yeah,

559
00:38:15.119 --> 00:38:16.719
And again I'm not if you drive
for Swift, I'm sure you're a great

560
00:38:16.760 --> 00:38:22.760
person. Go to a different company. Gave seven and ten years, seventy

561
00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:28.599
percent of my accidents seven zero have
been Swift drivers. That is not an

562
00:38:28.639 --> 00:38:31.119
exaggerate. I have to know these
numbers every single year so I can give

563
00:38:31.119 --> 00:38:34.199
them back to the clients so we
can decide who we're gonna bring in.

564
00:38:34.679 --> 00:38:37.360
Swift just happens to underbid the competition, so they just keep coming. I

565
00:38:37.400 --> 00:38:44.239
wonder why they just keep on hitting
stuff that's happened. I've had drivers flip

566
00:38:44.280 --> 00:38:47.039
over, like legitimately on their top
and I get there and the guy's like,

567
00:38:47.039 --> 00:38:50.440
please don't make mad. I'm like, I'm impressed. I'm not a

568
00:38:50.599 --> 00:38:55.599
How you have thirty three square feet
and aish? How are you on your

569
00:38:55.639 --> 00:39:00.400
top? Well? I hit the
hurricane block okay, And then I was

570
00:39:00.480 --> 00:39:07.079
upside to know you're just skipping some
fucking steps in the story. Something happened

571
00:39:07.239 --> 00:39:09.639
between you hit it and you were
on your top. Well, then I

572
00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:14.760
kept hitting it. I just kept
going. And if you hasn't never seen

573
00:39:14.760 --> 00:39:16.920
a hurricane block, if you flip
it on its side, it's kind of

574
00:39:16.960 --> 00:39:21.559
like a ramp. Oh God.
So they'll hit them and then they'll keep

575
00:39:21.599 --> 00:39:24.440
trying to drive over him. Now
what they think is going to happen after

576
00:39:24.480 --> 00:39:28.440
they get that stuck in the middle
of their truck is beyond me because the

577
00:39:28.480 --> 00:39:30.400
amount of times that have had to
call a wrecking company to come and say,

578
00:39:30.400 --> 00:39:36.000
hey, I have a truck driver
on top of the hurricane block that

579
00:39:36.199 --> 00:39:40.159
or there's a boulder in between his
rear axle yep, how I don't know

580
00:39:42.079 --> 00:39:44.880
they'll get there, Bob. How
did someone gets happen? I don't know.

581
00:39:44.920 --> 00:39:47.679
It's it's it's more impressive that it
happened than the fact that he's now

582
00:39:47.719 --> 00:39:52.440
gonna be fucking late, or that
happens. Or they will get a hole

583
00:39:52.559 --> 00:39:55.599
in their trailer, and I don't
mean like a quarter sized hole. I

584
00:39:55.639 --> 00:40:02.000
mean they'll hit a piece of metal
and drag it for the entire length struck

585
00:40:02.360 --> 00:40:06.199
and in. These people who are
picking up food grade product will say,

586
00:40:06.639 --> 00:40:09.719
can I still give my load?
I think I can still deliver? Something

587
00:40:09.840 --> 00:40:13.760
tells me no, I don't know
what. Call it a Hunch's like I

588
00:40:13.920 --> 00:40:17.280
roll duct tape in the back.
It's like, you know what, try

589
00:40:17.280 --> 00:40:22.880
it. There have been worse things
that have happened, but it's it's nuts.

590
00:40:22.880 --> 00:40:27.360
The security industry, it's it's it's
been good to me, But it

591
00:40:27.519 --> 00:40:30.679
is. Once you get into management
and you start to see all the little

592
00:40:30.000 --> 00:40:34.280
little things that make the big thing
possible, you're like, I should I

593
00:40:34.280 --> 00:40:37.519
should leave, I should go back
to school, any different career choice.

594
00:40:37.639 --> 00:40:43.360
Yeah, but again, I wouldn't
trade this job for many things, because

595
00:40:43.360 --> 00:40:46.719
I've done foundry work, I've done
welding, I've been in factories working second

596
00:40:46.800 --> 00:40:52.800
jobs. While doing this, every
other job is harder. It just is

597
00:40:52.960 --> 00:40:54.880
that there are a few jobs.
That'll be like, oh, yeah,

598
00:40:54.880 --> 00:41:00.480
that's easier than security work. You
have to be mentally tough to work security.

599
00:41:00.559 --> 00:41:02.599
But welding in one hundred and five
degree foundry that that was a different

600
00:41:02.599 --> 00:41:08.079
conversation altogether. Yeah, so that's
all I've got. I'm gonna throw it

601
00:41:08.119 --> 00:41:12.400
to you and let you tell us
some of the Internet's like a horror stories

602
00:41:12.400 --> 00:41:15.000
again. You know, I've had
some scary rounds experiences and stuff like that,

603
00:41:15.039 --> 00:41:21.159
but like when I think true horror
stories, not much tops the meth

604
00:41:21.159 --> 00:41:23.840
head break in. Yeah, that
kids, that just goes down in history.

605
00:41:23.880 --> 00:41:27.239
And one day I will pull the
pictures off my computer and I'll post

606
00:41:27.280 --> 00:41:31.079
him in the facecook but group,
because like you guys don't understand actually was

607
00:41:31.360 --> 00:41:37.559
fucking carnage that this guy. The
what gets me is the k Cups.

608
00:41:37.800 --> 00:41:43.159
Everything makes sense, I understand,
just being jazzed out of your head like

609
00:41:43.199 --> 00:41:47.199
fire extinguisher. I get that.
It's the after the fifteenth K Cup.

610
00:41:47.480 --> 00:41:52.800
You gotta think maybe it's me.
Maybe I'm the drama because this is a

611
00:41:52.800 --> 00:41:57.840
problem. Oh god, okay,
I'm sorry, go ahead, please,

612
00:41:58.199 --> 00:42:00.639
Okay. So the first time one
we're gonna go into is a humanoid creature

613
00:42:00.719 --> 00:42:06.679
hangs around the bar at night,
no thanks. I worked third shift security

614
00:42:06.679 --> 00:42:09.400
at a brewery. My first week
of working hair something just fell off.

615
00:42:10.079 --> 00:42:15.079
I dismissed it as being a new
work environment plausby being alone at night.

616
00:42:16.119 --> 00:42:20.320
There are two main buildings on the
same property, the brewery and the bar,

617
00:42:20.360 --> 00:42:23.000
about two hundred feet away. The
third shift guard hangs out the bar

618
00:42:23.039 --> 00:42:28.840
at night since it's a good overlook
of the facility. The lights automatically turn

619
00:42:28.880 --> 00:42:32.079
off and come on with motion.
I was coming back from a patrol around

620
00:42:32.079 --> 00:42:37.199
the facility when the lights in the
main room and the back room were off,

621
00:42:37.559 --> 00:42:39.480
but the door in the back room
was open. I walked into the

622
00:42:39.480 --> 00:42:43.280
bar like normal, and the lights
came on after I took a few steps

623
00:42:43.280 --> 00:42:49.800
inside. Then I froze. In
that doorway, there was a thing humanoid,

624
00:42:49.880 --> 00:42:53.440
but not quite. Its arms were
way too long and its hair covered

625
00:42:53.440 --> 00:42:58.760
most of its upper body. The
doorway was almost too small for it to

626
00:42:58.800 --> 00:43:02.280
get through, but after a few
seconds I blinked and it was gone.

627
00:43:04.199 --> 00:43:07.880
Apparently I'm not the only one who's
seen it. After asking around a bit

628
00:43:07.920 --> 00:43:10.639
a few days, few of the
dayshift guys seem to know what I'm talking

629
00:43:10.679 --> 00:43:15.199
about, but most refused to talk
about him. Over the next few weeks,

630
00:43:15.199 --> 00:43:17.400
I had a few more run ins
with him, but only in the

631
00:43:17.440 --> 00:43:22.480
bar. I thought he couldn't leave
it. One of the main public areas

632
00:43:22.519 --> 00:43:25.039
inside the brewery has a set of
two doors, the outside and the inside

633
00:43:25.039 --> 00:43:30.039
doors, kind of like an air
lock. When you scan your access card

634
00:43:30.079 --> 00:43:35.079
after hours, the doors automatically opened
and then close after thirty seconds. The

635
00:43:35.159 --> 00:43:38.119
outside door has a tendency to get
stuck, though, So I stood in

636
00:43:38.199 --> 00:43:43.559
that airlock space, looking outside,
waiting for the door to close. The

637
00:43:43.599 --> 00:43:49.159
inside door closed at first behind me, then the outside door closed as it

638
00:43:49.239 --> 00:43:53.440
did, I see in the reflection
the things standing right behind me. It's

639
00:43:53.599 --> 00:44:00.320
towering over me, staring down,
long arms hanging at its side. I

640
00:44:00.400 --> 00:44:04.039
no longer stayed in that space.
When I wait for the doors to close,

641
00:44:04.119 --> 00:44:06.679
I go inside, turn on the
lights, and then turn around and

642
00:44:06.679 --> 00:44:12.719
wait for the door to close.
Nope, nope, nope. So I

643
00:44:13.280 --> 00:44:15.920
do understand exactly what he's talking about, though, When you're going through an

644
00:44:15.960 --> 00:44:19.840
area and there's an open door and
you have to go through dark offices because

645
00:44:20.239 --> 00:44:25.239
there's there's something else about dark dark
offices all well, so here's the problem

646
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:30.519
is, uh I was doing rounds
at the height of like the back rooms.

647
00:44:30.840 --> 00:44:32.320
Oh yeah, and again not the
most recent ways, because like the

648
00:44:32.320 --> 00:44:36.920
back rooms first became a thing like
five, six, seven years ago,

649
00:44:37.400 --> 00:44:39.719
and now they made a game and
like Mark Aplier kind of like brought the

650
00:44:40.079 --> 00:44:45.480
creepy pasta back. But there are
a few things like more nerve wracking than

651
00:44:45.599 --> 00:44:50.960
thinking you see something in an empty
office, dark office building. Yeah,

652
00:44:50.960 --> 00:44:52.519
well, because you don't when you're
when you're in an office. And I

653
00:44:52.880 --> 00:44:55.280
challenge everyone who works in an office
to do this. Next to you go

654
00:44:55.320 --> 00:45:01.000
to work, Imagine all the places
someone could hide behind if nobody was there

655
00:45:01.000 --> 00:45:05.119
and it's pitch black. Police.
Don't do that. Don't give yourself anxiety

656
00:45:05.119 --> 00:45:07.880
because you don't think about that until
you're in a pitch black office and you're

657
00:45:07.960 --> 00:45:13.679
like, there there could be a
murdering meth head behind any one of these

658
00:45:13.719 --> 00:45:19.079
cubicles, a cabinets, underneath the
chairs, behind the desk. It's even

659
00:45:19.119 --> 00:45:22.199
more so. We used to have
a cardboard cutout of one of the founders

660
00:45:22.199 --> 00:45:25.480
of the company that I do security
for, and they would move it into

661
00:45:25.519 --> 00:45:29.280
like certain area. I think it
was like if they did x amount of

662
00:45:29.280 --> 00:45:32.039
like good sales or something. They
would get the cutout. It's a weird

663
00:45:32.079 --> 00:45:36.639
little fucking thing they were doing.
But when you round a corner and you

664
00:45:36.719 --> 00:45:39.320
just see this creepy old dude smiling
at you from your flashlight, You're like,

665
00:45:39.440 --> 00:45:45.920
I will fuck you up, will
burn you to the gorn out stone.

666
00:45:45.960 --> 00:45:52.679
Cold Steve Auston kicks in the background. You can't yeah rounds And it's

667
00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:55.360
weird because like when you're training somebody, there's no scare to it, right,

668
00:45:55.719 --> 00:45:59.440
but then they do it themselves and
like you almost always get that text

669
00:45:59.440 --> 00:46:01.800
w new Guard, this ship's kind
of creepy. Oh yeah, like yeah,

670
00:46:01.880 --> 00:46:05.719
yeah, yeah, I could see
this. Yeah all right, so

671
00:46:05.760 --> 00:46:08.599
this one just says medical school.
I've worked here for at least three years.

672
00:46:08.719 --> 00:46:13.480
It was around eleven PM and I
finished clearing all the floors. I

673
00:46:13.559 --> 00:46:15.559
went in the elevator and pressed the
button for the ground floor. On my

674
00:46:15.599 --> 00:46:20.280
way down, the elevator stopped.
The doors opened to a dark and empty

675
00:46:20.280 --> 00:46:23.519
floor. There's nobody there, but
I was sure. I'm sure there's nobody

676
00:46:23.559 --> 00:46:28.400
there. I just cleared that floor, So why did the elevator stop?

677
00:46:29.360 --> 00:46:31.800
The first time? I thought the
elevator is malfunctioning, but it happened repeatedly,

678
00:46:31.960 --> 00:46:36.599
sometimes even for days in a row. Students who use the elevator during

679
00:46:36.639 --> 00:46:39.599
the day don't experience this problem.
It only ever happens at night. Every

680
00:46:39.599 --> 00:46:43.639
time the door opens, I get
goosebumps because it feels like someone just walked

681
00:46:43.679 --> 00:46:45.960
in or got on the elevator with
me. As this event has now become

682
00:46:46.039 --> 00:46:49.599
part of my job, I got
used to it these days. That the

683
00:46:49.639 --> 00:46:52.199
elevator ever opens on that floor,
I just step aside and give space to

684
00:46:52.280 --> 00:46:58.639
whoever or whatever wants to ride down
with me. Nope, I've seen supernatural

685
00:46:58.679 --> 00:47:00.800
again. Now I'm shooting with the
shot. Well, I was gonna say,

686
00:47:00.800 --> 00:47:05.199
back to that last story. I
am two seasons deep in a supernatural

687
00:47:05.239 --> 00:47:07.679
I'm nuquely qualified to handle this.
I will just burn the bones with salt

688
00:47:08.039 --> 00:47:12.400
exactly. There you go. Yeah, see this one. My problem is

689
00:47:12.480 --> 00:47:15.840
I would have to report this to
maintenance because I'd be pissed as a manager

690
00:47:15.840 --> 00:47:17.800
if they're like, Bob, I
didn't tell you it was a ghost.

691
00:47:19.119 --> 00:47:21.559
Oh yeah, but no, no, we have a file, a fucking

692
00:47:21.559 --> 00:47:23.199
report, buddy. We gotta get
this fixed. There's something wrong with that

693
00:47:23.280 --> 00:47:29.079
elevator. But if you ever worked
a contract that had an elevator that like

694
00:47:29.119 --> 00:47:34.159
you had to actively use for rounds. No, No, I think I'm

695
00:47:34.159 --> 00:47:37.480
trying to think. I feel like
riding an elevator and opening opening to just

696
00:47:37.679 --> 00:47:43.599
darkness would be fucking scary. Yeah, i'd snap somebody. Yeah, something

697
00:47:43.639 --> 00:47:45.679
about that just doesn't Now that's not
sitting right. This story just got way

698
00:47:45.719 --> 00:47:50.760
scarier than now that I imagine myself
having to do that. No, thank

699
00:47:50.800 --> 00:47:53.960
you. Okay, So the next
one we're gonna do is they avoided the

700
00:47:54.039 --> 00:47:59.960
room with an old hospital and in
a hold hospital that contain boxes with radiation

701
00:48:00.039 --> 00:48:06.599
and symbols. Yeah, that's smart. Yeah, don't do that. Back

702
00:48:06.599 --> 00:48:08.679
in the eighties, I worked security
to pay for college. I got put

703
00:48:08.679 --> 00:48:13.360
at a closed hospital. It was
about twenty floors and they wanted you to

704
00:48:13.400 --> 00:48:16.559
watch each floor at the start in
middle of the shift. Oh my god.

705
00:48:16.800 --> 00:48:21.400
Okay, that reminds me of one
I worked a contract and this was

706
00:48:21.480 --> 00:48:27.360
like, I mean this buildings like
half a mile like the entire facility is.

707
00:48:27.719 --> 00:48:30.480
And when I got there as a
flex because with the company I worked

708
00:48:30.519 --> 00:48:34.039
with initially, if you got there's
a FlexIt it want to work the shift,

709
00:48:34.039 --> 00:48:36.199
you'd say hey, I'm leaving.
I got there, they said,

710
00:48:36.199 --> 00:48:37.199
hey, we're gonna have you do
rounds tonight. I was like, cool,

711
00:48:37.280 --> 00:48:39.360
no problem, I get the golf
cart. No, you do them

712
00:48:39.400 --> 00:48:46.320
on foot. And I said,
okay, how many on foot? This

713
00:48:46.360 --> 00:48:51.320
place is huge? Are you sure? How many rooms? How many floors?

714
00:48:51.960 --> 00:48:55.960
Well ended up being like fourteen different
buildings, and it was something like,

715
00:48:57.239 --> 00:48:59.639
so, how rounds work with some
companies. Does you have these little

716
00:48:59.639 --> 00:49:02.159
dots to scan to prove that you
were actually there? Yeah? It was

717
00:49:02.199 --> 00:49:07.360
over three hundred of them. Oh
nope, and on average, rounds took

718
00:49:07.480 --> 00:49:10.320
four hours. So I was like, hey, I'm going home. You

719
00:49:10.320 --> 00:49:13.559
guys that have covered this alone,
I'm not doing this, and I just

720
00:49:13.599 --> 00:49:15.639
fucking left. Yeah. I don't
blame you, absolutely not. So it

721
00:49:15.719 --> 00:49:21.039
took about two and a half hours
to do the entire rounds. Yeah,

722
00:49:21.079 --> 00:49:23.119
it was like the set for one
of the old horror movies. Most of

723
00:49:23.159 --> 00:49:27.400
the lights did not work, and
there were ceiling towels hanging down all over

724
00:49:27.440 --> 00:49:30.280
the place. It was still full
of unwanted equipment, and since it was

725
00:49:30.320 --> 00:49:35.360
winter and the steam heat was on, there were noises on each floor.

726
00:49:36.519 --> 00:49:38.320
One night, I was on the
fifteenth floor, and heard a loud crash

727
00:49:38.400 --> 00:49:43.320
down one of the side corridors.
That freaked me out. Turned out a

728
00:49:43.440 --> 00:49:46.599
pipe in the ceiling was leaking and
the ten ceiling towels all let go at

729
00:49:46.599 --> 00:49:52.480
the same time. Probably the creeps
was walking through the eighteenth floor because it

730
00:49:52.559 --> 00:49:58.679
had these all tiled operating rooms that
had observation windows around at the top.

731
00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:00.559
Oh god, no, I'd like
I was being watched the entire No.

732
00:50:00.719 --> 00:50:05.679
I would avoid that room also,
and all the operating tables and other equipment

733
00:50:05.719 --> 00:50:09.119
were still in there. I only
went to the twentieth floor one time.

734
00:50:09.719 --> 00:50:13.360
I don't know if they did cancer
treatments there or what, but when I

735
00:50:13.400 --> 00:50:16.840
walked through there there were boxes with
radiation symbols. So I just decided the

736
00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:22.199
nineteenth floor was good enough. I
mean, I don't risk yourself for these

737
00:50:22.239 --> 00:50:27.079
companies guys. Yeah. No,
See, I hate that so much because

738
00:50:27.960 --> 00:50:32.960
there was a there was a time
I was doing rounds and I walked around

739
00:50:34.000 --> 00:50:38.440
the corner and there was a giant
warning saying that this building was built before

740
00:50:38.639 --> 00:50:45.480
X date. So the walls and
ceilings are lined with and what what like?

741
00:50:45.559 --> 00:50:47.760
Made me say, fuck this building
is? I went I went through

742
00:50:47.800 --> 00:50:52.480
the door I shut the door,
and the ceiling tiles moved, and it

743
00:50:52.639 --> 00:50:58.480
dropped all this dust right onto my
head into my hair. Nope, absolutely

744
00:50:58.480 --> 00:51:01.239
not. Yeah, So okay,
I out one more here and then we're

745
00:51:01.280 --> 00:51:06.039
gonna call it a weekend. So
in my six years here, I've experienced

746
00:51:06.079 --> 00:51:07.840
a lot of things at night,
But the one thing I can't ever forget

747
00:51:08.039 --> 00:51:12.440
was what I saw in broad daylight. It was twelve pm and I was

748
00:51:12.440 --> 00:51:15.519
scoring to Facebook to kill time.
I looked up from my phone and noticed

749
00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:19.280
a man sitting on the stairway.
The man was clearly not a student.

750
00:51:19.480 --> 00:51:22.840
He was sitting on a step with
his head bowed, long black hair covering

751
00:51:22.880 --> 00:51:28.000
his face. He wore a blue
Polo shirt and blue Spartan slippers. I

752
00:51:28.079 --> 00:51:30.639
stared at him, and he didn't
move an inch, even while students walk

753
00:51:30.719 --> 00:51:34.119
right by him. The man was
definitely a bit creepy, I thought,

754
00:51:34.199 --> 00:51:36.760
but he might have just been a
worker who had some renovation on campus.

755
00:51:37.840 --> 00:51:39.599
Later on, I noticed that the
man was gone. As I passed those

756
00:51:39.599 --> 00:51:43.519
stairs, I asked students who in
the classes nearby if they knew who the

757
00:51:43.559 --> 00:51:46.360
man was. They all gave me
the same answer, who There was nobody

758
00:51:46.400 --> 00:51:50.599
there? I tried to describe the
man, telling them that he sat on

759
00:51:50.639 --> 00:51:52.639
the stairs for a long time,
but all of them attested that there was

760
00:51:52.679 --> 00:51:58.599
nobody there and he had no idea
what he was talking about. I quit.

761
00:51:58.920 --> 00:52:06.320
Yeah, my bullshit level for security
versus high, strangest, there's two

762
00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:10.599
vastly different things when it comes to
like being in caves and seeing a potentially

763
00:52:10.639 --> 00:52:16.360
holographic bear. You know, maybe
that might have been summoned or may have

764
00:52:16.480 --> 00:52:24.360
not been summoned by fellow Grandpa the
show who knows. But I my bullshit

765
00:52:24.480 --> 00:52:29.320
level for security was so low it's
not even funny. Yeah. Well,

766
00:52:29.199 --> 00:52:31.320
the last thing I want to talk
about is I was working for a company

767
00:52:31.320 --> 00:52:37.280
and I was kind of overseeing the
entire region because because what you'll learn with

768
00:52:37.360 --> 00:52:42.519
security companies, especially work for him, the management tends to cycle very often,

769
00:52:42.760 --> 00:52:45.320
like the upper management does. And
it's because a lot of these companies

770
00:52:45.320 --> 00:52:50.360
they head hunt from each other and
every new company, every new company will

771
00:52:50.400 --> 00:52:53.039
often pay way more just to get
these people in. Yeah, that than

772
00:52:53.079 --> 00:53:00.280
the longer running established company as well. And I was overseeing this entire regent

773
00:53:00.320 --> 00:53:02.679
and I got a phone call.
Um, it was at a parking garage

774
00:53:04.079 --> 00:53:08.079
down in Dayton, and it was
It was kind of funny because the guy

775
00:53:08.239 --> 00:53:15.280
had been a site manager for seven
eight years before this. The client shows

776
00:53:15.280 --> 00:53:17.679
a different company going forward, so
he was just kind of doing flex work

777
00:53:17.679 --> 00:53:22.119
and working wherever so he can make
as close to his original paycheck as he

778
00:53:22.320 --> 00:53:25.559
could. And he calls he was, hey, what do I do if

779
00:53:25.599 --> 00:53:30.760
I think someone's dead? Oh my
god? And I was like, what

780
00:53:30.880 --> 00:53:32.400
do you what do you mean?
What do you mean? You like,

781
00:53:34.800 --> 00:53:37.320
you're You're in a parking garage,
so that shouldn't be there a dead person.

782
00:53:38.760 --> 00:53:42.039
And he's like, well, I
walked I was doing rounds and I

783
00:53:42.079 --> 00:53:46.559
walked up on this guy who was
laying out spread eagle at like the base

784
00:53:46.639 --> 00:53:50.559
of the like third or fourth floor, I remember which one it was.

785
00:53:51.079 --> 00:53:52.920
And he's like, my concern is
someone comes through here, they're going to

786
00:53:53.000 --> 00:53:57.480
hit him with a car. And
I was like, yeah, that's a

787
00:53:57.760 --> 00:54:00.000
that's a valid concern. Just wake
him up and tell him to get out

788
00:54:00.199 --> 00:54:02.800
here. Because like there was like
a transient homeless problem, which is why

789
00:54:02.800 --> 00:54:06.199
we get hired in the first place, was they were like setting up tent

790
00:54:06.320 --> 00:54:13.000
camps. And well, he goes
over to the guy and I will never

791
00:54:13.039 --> 00:54:16.159
forget this because it was I've never
fired someone so quickly because it was on

792
00:54:16.199 --> 00:54:20.199
the phone, and you know better
than I hate doing it over the phone.

793
00:54:21.400 --> 00:54:24.559
He walks over and I hear doom, and then I hear a man

794
00:54:24.639 --> 00:54:30.440
moaning he fucking kicked him in the
like in the ribs with steel toe boots

795
00:54:30.480 --> 00:54:35.519
on. And he's like, well, if he was dead, he wouldn't

796
00:54:35.559 --> 00:54:39.480
have felt that, so and I
was like, I literally pulled the phone

797
00:54:39.480 --> 00:54:44.639
away from my face. I said, pack your shit, you're gone,

798
00:54:44.679 --> 00:54:46.079
You're fired. He's like, what
do you mean. I was like,

799
00:54:46.119 --> 00:54:51.880
you just kicked a fucking homeless man. I get down there. He wasn't

800
00:54:51.880 --> 00:54:58.320
even homeless. So he works for
a company who does like drywall paving,

801
00:54:59.079 --> 00:55:02.320
and they use that parking garage.
He was drunk coming home from the bar

802
00:55:04.159 --> 00:55:07.800
and thought he parked his car there, was looking for the looking for his

803
00:55:07.920 --> 00:55:14.280
car, walking up this parking garage
and passed out because he had drunk too

804
00:55:14.360 --> 00:55:19.480
much. Kick this dude, so
I fired him. RS like, don't

805
00:55:19.480 --> 00:55:22.119
you think you acted a little quick. I'm like, he kicked a human

806
00:55:22.159 --> 00:55:29.000
beings. I thought it was okay
and thought that was acceptable behavior. I've

807
00:55:29.039 --> 00:55:31.920
met some of the most interesting and
some of the best people doing security,

808
00:55:31.920 --> 00:55:37.480
but I've also met some of the
fucking worst. Security is such a broad

809
00:55:37.599 --> 00:55:42.960
spectrum topic. I can understand where
a lot of people would get confused because

810
00:55:43.000 --> 00:55:45.039
a lot of these situations you don't
know what to do until it happens.

811
00:55:45.159 --> 00:55:47.800
Yeah, life or death. You
don't know what to do if there is

812
00:55:49.119 --> 00:55:52.440
a break, and you don't really
know what to do if there's an accident,

813
00:55:52.679 --> 00:55:55.039
like you have to. It's a
learn as you go kind of job,

814
00:55:55.079 --> 00:55:58.840
and that is one of the things
that really sucks about it. But

815
00:55:58.840 --> 00:56:00.679
I have the common deason say not
to kick somebody. Yeah, the thing

816
00:56:00.760 --> 00:56:05.400
is common sense and common decency in
this field, it's not so common at

817
00:56:05.440 --> 00:56:07.400
all. I was shocked by that. It's so rare, it's not even

818
00:56:07.400 --> 00:56:10.000
funny. Yeah, I've had that. I've had I've had my own guards.

819
00:56:10.119 --> 00:56:14.079
Like, we've had people die out
in their trucks. The worst one

820
00:56:14.159 --> 00:56:16.800
ever was a guy that picked up
a lot lizard. And if you guys

821
00:56:16.840 --> 00:56:21.360
aren't familiar with what that is.
Um, certain ladies of the night will

822
00:56:21.400 --> 00:56:25.280
go in frequent places like loves or
pilot truck stops, and they will charge

823
00:56:25.320 --> 00:56:30.719
money for their services. Or food
or food. Well, this guy,

824
00:56:30.480 --> 00:56:34.039
he lied. Initially he told our
guards that, oh, well that's my

825
00:56:34.119 --> 00:56:37.559
fiance or wife, I remember which
one it was. Um, No,

826
00:56:37.760 --> 00:56:40.480
he told you first that he didn't
know her. That's right, didn't know

827
00:56:40.559 --> 00:56:46.280
her. Then it was wife fiance
I think, and then I just yeah.

828
00:56:46.320 --> 00:56:50.199
Anyway, he ends up telling us
I picked her up down the road.

829
00:56:50.880 --> 00:56:57.079
Well, he's in our staging area
waiting. She has a fucking heart

830
00:56:57.119 --> 00:57:01.920
attack and dies in his truck.
They call he He doesn't know what to

831
00:57:01.960 --> 00:57:06.840
do, so he comes and tells
the like twenty year old security guard,

832
00:57:07.280 --> 00:57:12.119
Hey, there's a dead woman in
my truck, and I'm like, what

833
00:57:13.119 --> 00:57:15.199
the actual fuck? So she calls
me. We end up calling the police.

834
00:57:16.360 --> 00:57:21.199
We get he gets the body out
of there, and has the audacity

835
00:57:21.199 --> 00:57:23.079
to looked me square in the face
and say, so, can I still

836
00:57:23.119 --> 00:57:28.199
pick up or does disqualify me from
your facility? Oh my god, I

837
00:57:28.239 --> 00:57:32.000
wanted to punch him in his fucking
throat when he said that. I had

838
00:57:32.039 --> 00:57:36.199
that And the last thing I want
to talk about before we go once.

839
00:57:36.320 --> 00:57:39.519
This is a couple of summers ago. I get a call from a woman

840
00:57:39.599 --> 00:57:45.800
that I trust her to put truck
drivers in place. She's about four foot

841
00:57:45.920 --> 00:57:53.159
nine, she's older, and she's
the scariest person talking about Yeah, but

842
00:57:53.239 --> 00:57:57.639
she's super no nonsense, like she's
not the type to ever exaggerate, like

843
00:57:58.079 --> 00:58:00.760
if it happens, that happens,
yeah, and every super black white She

844
00:58:00.760 --> 00:58:01.679
goes, hey, Bob, are
you busy? I was like, Oh,

845
00:58:01.719 --> 00:58:06.239
I'm never too busy for you.
What do you need? I need

846
00:58:06.280 --> 00:58:08.559
you to come out with me and
look at a trailer and I said,

847
00:58:08.559 --> 00:58:13.239
Okay, that's weird because your department
doesn't deal with trailers. I think there's

848
00:58:13.280 --> 00:58:16.159
something dead in there, like something, Well, it's probably a dead body.

849
00:58:17.480 --> 00:58:22.000
Could you do you have a gun? And I'm like, I'll be

850
00:58:22.079 --> 00:58:24.199
there in a minute. So I
get over there and she gets in the

851
00:58:24.239 --> 00:58:29.239
truck and I was like, how
did all this go about? She goes,

852
00:58:29.239 --> 00:58:31.119
oh, I was driving out to
the project area, and as I

853
00:58:31.159 --> 00:58:36.920
was driving, I caught a whiff
of something horrid, like absolutely fucking terrible.

854
00:58:37.599 --> 00:58:40.599
And I walked up to this truck
and there are flies buzzing around.

855
00:58:40.719 --> 00:58:45.840
Now she at this point again didn't
tell me the full story. So we

856
00:58:45.880 --> 00:58:50.880
get to the truck or the trailer
rather it's a drop trailer and there is

857
00:58:50.920 --> 00:58:54.559
a like an army of flies around
the back of this trailer, and you

858
00:58:54.599 --> 00:59:00.400
could smell it like windows up in
the truck, but you could smell smell

859
00:59:00.440 --> 00:59:02.760
it. Yeah, So I go
and I get my cutters. We open

860
00:59:02.840 --> 00:59:06.199
it up, and she's like,
if there's a dead body in here,

861
00:59:06.199 --> 00:59:08.719
I'm taking vacation the rest of the
day, Like I'm going home. You

862
00:59:08.800 --> 00:59:12.119
gotta deal with this. We opened
it up, and what it ended up

863
00:59:12.159 --> 00:59:17.679
being was the year before, there
was a rejected trailer full of eggs and

864
00:59:17.800 --> 00:59:23.000
it was still there. They left
it there and it smelled like a dead

865
00:59:23.039 --> 00:59:27.280
body. So it was like a
good ninety nine hundred degree day middle of

866
00:59:27.320 --> 00:59:32.079
the summer. And I freak out
because when I opened it up, all

867
00:59:32.119 --> 00:59:36.960
I could see were like stacked boxes, like Corget pallets on top of Corget

868
00:59:37.000 --> 00:59:39.440
boxes on top of stacked pallets.
So I'm like some my my mind is

869
00:59:39.519 --> 00:59:44.119
racing. I go full criminal minds, like they chopped up a body,

870
00:59:44.159 --> 00:59:47.159
it's shoved it in the boxes.
I climb up there and I see these

871
00:59:47.199 --> 00:59:53.599
eggs with insects and them. That's
I had to decide how to say that

872
00:59:53.639 --> 00:59:58.199
because it was disgusting. I hopped
down, I do a little investigation.

873
00:59:58.519 --> 01:00:02.719
Well, what had happened was it
costs like fifteen grand to get rid of

874
01:00:02.760 --> 01:00:07.599
all this stuff for some reason or
another, I don't know what the reasoning

875
01:00:07.760 --> 01:00:10.159
was. And their answer was instead
of paying it, they would just have

876
01:00:10.199 --> 01:00:15.719
the yard jockey move it every few
days so the guards didn't flag it for

877
01:00:15.760 --> 01:00:21.159
sitting in the same place for too
long. Are you serious? Dead serious?

878
01:00:21.440 --> 01:00:23.400
And they end up getting getting it
getting rid of it. What had

879
01:00:23.400 --> 01:00:29.599
happened is this smell and the boxes
that started to deteriorate, It ate into

880
01:00:29.639 --> 01:00:32.400
the wood of the trailer, so
the trailer was ruined. They had to

881
01:00:32.400 --> 01:00:37.920
pay for the entire trailer. That's
what you get for me and so stingy.

882
01:00:37.119 --> 01:00:39.840
Yeah, and it's one of those
things that I work for a billion

883
01:00:39.960 --> 01:00:44.960
with a B, one of,
if not the largest, most private companies

884
01:00:44.960 --> 01:00:50.400
in the entire world. And that
was their mentality. And it really opened

885
01:00:50.400 --> 01:00:52.119
my eyes that day, like,
oh, we just really don't fucking care

886
01:00:52.960 --> 01:00:59.119
at all. This is terrifying,
terrifying. But with that being said,

887
01:00:59.159 --> 01:01:01.360
Misspni, that's all I for security
horror stories. Again, if you guys

888
01:01:01.440 --> 01:01:05.239
