The New Guy

The canteen was buzzing with the voices of resentment over the noob who arrived today.

Seemed like the mandatory one week classroom training failed to prepare Mr Noob for the real world of mall policing.

He complained about the air-conditioning and requested for an outdoors post, which incidentally, allows him the opportunity to sit down. It may not seem like much to civilians, but to a mall cop who has to stand up on his feet for 12 hours a day, that means a lot.

So I voiced my suspicion, and informed my colleagues that it was more likely that he couldn’t stand – pun intended – having to stand on his feet for the whole 12 hour shift, and thus requested for the outdoors post, which comes with a chair.

The consensus of the Mall Veterans was that this noob wouldn’t last the week. We shall see…
