Pinkerton does ours. I won't get into too much of that, but it could be argued at times the level of competitency of some of the idiots running around with machine guns. But if you can make it into our facility undetected than you deserve a medal. Can't answer for the other plants.

Must be better security than it used to be. I have some inside into what it was like years ago. On Oak Ridge, the ones convicted should have been convicted of embarrassing a fleet of security that used to be top notch. I have a number of friends that used to work the SWAT there and that wouldn't have happened 15 years ago. But, Wakenhut.

I will say this there is some pretty serious technology out there that all of these places could have invested in and chose not to. That situation would have never happened even with idiots in charge of their security.

Good to know. We don't communicate since we are seperate, but I feel confident no one would waltz in to our plant undetected for very long at all. You would have to have a death wish for one. Shoot to kill with no questions asked.

Oak Ridge has the tech. Somebody was sleeping on duty. They have sensors implanted in the ground throughout that area. One step in would set off an alarm.

From what I know, the guard could (should) have taken them out. Tifwiw

We have some similarities, but again I can't go into much. Wish I could, but can't.

I know. Like I said, I have friends who did the stuff and they couldn't tell much of it. There is no excuse for the facility in Oak Ridge to be compromised.

Absoultely agree. I know some of what they do there and it is inexcusable to have the security of that place compromised. Especially by hippies and an old lady. I take it your buddies are all retired now?

They will be soon. Riding it out until then. They've all been elevated in stature and the new breed is in. Sad. They took pride in what they did.

It is not the most comfortable environment in which to work. Takes awhile to get used to dude's with multiple guns looking over your shoulder at every turn.

On another point we may have discussed this previously, but that is the mismanagement of people who are knowledgable and truly loyal to what they do getting railroaded by pencil pushing idiots who believe they know more.
