Welcome to Confessions Of A Security Guard!

Thank you for visiting my blog. I am a security guard working in the state of Texas. I started in 1998, then returned to the field in 2004. Since 2004, I have worked as an armed and unarmed security guard in the Houston area.

I started this blog because I feel there a lot of us who are not properly educated or trained by our employers and forced to learn on our own from experience and by making mistakes. I started this blog for that specific reason. I've written what I consider helpful articles that offer information that can be applied in the right circumstances. 

I've also added videos that can aid beginners in self-defense, and links to other security guard sites that provide related news on our industry. Should there be anything you need information on or would like to see on this site, please let me know.
