As a security officer you can carry to work, at work, and home from work only. So if the lady is using DART to get to or from work, she is legal.Rex B wrote:It is my understanding that off-duty security guards are not supposed to be carrying openly. Not sure if that applies to commuting.
Last year I had a rent house vacated by some deadbeat tenants. The husband was a security guy for the Dallas Federal Building. A week after they vacated the house he and his wife showed up and started taking things out of the house. A neighbor called me and I drove over there. The husband was loading stuff into their van as fast as he could, still in uniform and carrying. He wisely decided to leave, but it could have been a bad situation.
Found out later he was carrying illegally at that time. I should have reported him to his supervisor.

Why would you report it to DART and not to the security company? It is legal for the security officer to use DART to get to and from work.TIN BENDER wrote:The rust issue is not my concern. It is the fact that an earpiece or headphone is distracting the guard. I would initiate a company policy against such activity. Maybe an undercover type job evaluation is in order.
I would report this to DART.
