My 'Run In' with Site Security
Was off to the lab earlier today, and in order to catch up with my colleague, I ran up to him. I was running for less than about a minute.
Caught up to him and started chatting about work, then I heard a pip on the horn and a big van marked 'Security' pulled up and motioned me over to the van.
"No running on site, son" said the big burley security guard, with a handgun starpped around his large waist
"You're kidding, right?"
"No running on site, son"
"What?! Why?!"
"Its just the rules"
At this point I decided against getting into a debate with him, as he had a handgun and Iam basically a guest in his country!
Can you believe that...no running on site, and the guard couldn't even give me a good reason why not! I suspect its probably got something to do with insurance. Oh well, rules is rules I guess, even when its stupid

I find it funny that security guards can have guns. Maybe more scary then funny. Interesting, nonetheless
