I love the atmosphere of it all; peaceful, quiet, meandering around the grounds; gives me time to think about classwork, stories, projects, or other things.
What I wish was different
Nothing; it's a perfect job to have on the side of college.
Advice
Security work is a great way to build cash while also building connections in the real world; it's handy to have anyone in your pocket in case of a specific emergency.

What I liked
I’m a college student so while I’m working it gives me the opportunity to review homework, study for exams and prepare myself for the weeks to come, all while I’m at work.
What I wish was different
I worked two jobs in the summer, I was both a cashier and a security guard. I wish I would’ve worked less hours to better prepare myself for the semester.
Advice
I know working and going to school can be stressful but hang in there because the hard work will pay off!
