21 of the Most Messed-Up Situations Witnessed by Security Guards

Any honest security guard will tell you that the jokes people make about their job are pretty valid, as the most eventful part of their shift typically involves walking around to make sure the doors are locked.

But there are exceptions to this rule. For example, one Redditor was doing his normally uneventful nightly rounds, and made his way around the parking garage, where everything seemed fine — until he reached the horrors of the lower level. When he turned the corner, he saw a guy squatting over a bucket to relieve himself. As if that sight wasn’t bad enough, the bucket dumper tried to make a run for it, but tripped and fell face-first, revealing that he had blood all over his ass. 

Other such night watchmen have shared the crappy situations they’ve witnessed on patrol, including those involving a girl fight, a bathroom mummy and an artist at work.
