Cebu City's Security.....

[fingolfin]

... this whole so called body frisking at malls and business offices is such a big joke. All they do is touch your belly and back area then you're free to go. Open your bag and poke it with their " drumstick", poke it for the sake of poking, then you're free to go in. Scan you with their metal detector for merely a second and you're done, next please. They don't even touch your ankle just in case you have "something" hidden in there. And on parking lots, especially in AYALA, they just let you open the baggage compartment of your car, take a look for 3 seconds and close it and scan the underside of your car with their mirror as fast as you can blink. All this security measures is such a waste of time and an insult, they're not doing it sincerely. These guards must be trained by the proper authority in security measures.

One time i hid my cellphone underneath my socks, i went to SM and the guard starts "checking" me out, after the usual "belly check" he signalled that i can go in, but i said " DILI DIAY NIMO INSPECSYONON AKO TIIL". So he did, he was very much surprised that i have something bulging, he said " AYAW UG LAKAW, NAA MAN DIAY KA PUSIL". Three of the guards got around me, so i calmly said " TAN. AWA LANG UNSA NA"... to their surprise and to my amusement they found my cellphone. hehehe. So i told them, " I HOPE SA SUNOD INYO NA APILON UG TAN.AW ANG TIIL NYA TARONGA UG INSPECT ANG MGA BAG". All i got from them are curses, hehehe.

.. i changed the title since it's more appropriate. let's talk about our city's flaws.

yeah you're right. this thing about the guards opening up the baggage compartment of your car and then shutting it down even before it reaches the top is just wasting the Mall's money but also wasting our time lining up. then they would use that big mirror at the end of a stick looking for something that I don't know if they'd even recognize when they see one. what about those times when they just take a peek at your tint-less window when you're driving an SUV.. less than a second and then they'll say "ok ra sir"... I wouldn't care if they stop vehicles, I wouldn'e care if I wait in line for a while but at least they should do their jobs attentively and passionately.

but I think for them, it's just another day at the office..

... they should do something about this. I did that "sock incident" to get the attention of their security manager but all i got is "@#$#@%% BYA NIMO BAI OI". Curses galore. I asked for the head of their security but all they answer is " WALA BITAW KA MADAKPAN, AYAW NA PAG HASOL". Toink, such wonderful reactions really. hehe. Coz to be honest, if our establishment's security is this "tight" for sure we'll see mini atomic bombs blown inside our malls come this december.

[samamar21]

security guards are just doing their job and its useless. samok au oy!

[mata_hari]

i agree... pointless, useless... they are so lenient... and i don't think most of them know what the heck they should be warned about everytime they look inside our bags. DARN..

[darkwing]

they should install security devices like those in the airports
