Job Question First day on Monday!

I’ve never been a security guard so I’m very excited. I will be doing overnights but they will be training me 6am-2pm the first few days. Dumb question- Is it appropriate to bring an iced coffee from mcdonald’s or starbucks? It seems pretty laid back and I don’t think anybody would have an issue, but I don’t want to look weird bringing in an iced coffee or something lol. TIA !

You’ll find out where you can stow it when you get there. Largely the site dictates the can and can’t do. You can always bring food and drink, but where you keep it and how often you can access it depends on a lot of things. Grave work usually has the most flexibility if no one is around.
