Look Who’s Running Security

A fat security guard with a bad wig got “transferred” for sleeping on the job. Her photo was taken while an inmate flashed a peace sign.

From FoxNews here:

A city correction officer took a cell phone photo of his co-worker sleeping on duty, leading to disciplinary action against both of them.

The photo shows guard Nadja Green, in uniform, leaning back in a chair with her arms folded on her chest, eyes closed and mouth open. An inmate is standing next to her, making a “peace” sign.

The photo, published in the New York Post on Tuesday, came to the attention of Department of Correction officials last week, said Deputy Commissioner Stephen Morello. Once it was authenticated, Green was transferred from her post at the Rikers Island infirmary and removed from supervising inmates.

Mike Skelly, spokesman for the Correction Officers’ Benevolent Association, said the union wouldn’t rush to condemn Green, because it was unclear what the situation was when the photo was taken.

And this is why you can’t have unions running your security. This lazy woman should have been fired, not transferred.

I see this sort of thing way too often: lazy overweight security guards not doing what they are supposed to be doing. And I’m talking about the guards that work the front line of security at many of our country’s federal installations too. They put down their sandwiches long enough to show you where you sign in to the visitor’s guest book, but if there were a real incident, they couldn’t run across the lobby much less run a hundred yards to catch a criminal. I see TSA agents all the time texting or browsing the web on mobile phones when they are supposed to be watching exits or alert for terrorists.
