I Have Issues With My Security Guard by lifeizgood: 4:13pm On Dec 07, 2022
I have an issue.
I work as a security guard and as a CSO of the bit.
I find it difficult to give commands without shaky voice. The junior guards are taking advantage of it to disrespect me.
Days ago, one of the guards, a cultist, challanged my command real bad in the presence of other staffs of the organization. I was pained, so pained that the expression on my face was really visible.
He then behaved after doing what he did but I kept my cool.
I reported to the manager of the organization and our security manager.
I was asked to give a query letter to the guy which I did.
He has replied the query letter and you won't believe me that this guy turned everything to look as if I'm the one who misunderstood him.
He denied challenging my order and never mentioned anything concerning it.
Some people na real criminal Ahswear.

Maybe you have been too friendly or perhaps you are uncertain about your job role and this has affected your confidence....or you just want to be in good terms with everyone especially your colleagues at work.

So you have to report your subordinate to your superiors before they told you to issue a query. cheesy You don't even know the extent of your powers so how can you influence?

You'll soon lose your job if you're not careful. You're supposed to manage your department independently and if you show that you're incapable, you will be replaced asap.

You better set your priorities on doing your job to a T and punishing or removing anyone who paints you bad.

You don't seem confident in your role. Even if you are a stammerer, that should even command more respect cause they are often hot-tempered. Why does your voice shake to begin with? You never chop?

What exactly was your order and how exactly did he challenge the order?

The security department of the company is contracted to a third party security outfit.
There are 3 boys and one girl working with the security outfit. The girl was to join some of the company staffs for an outing. One of the manager was hesitant about the girl going so, I asked the girl not to go.
The security boy in question said that the girl must go. I said no, she's not going. He repeated that the girl will go and before I know, he pulled out his phone and called the girl to go meet the manager so that she would be allowed to attend.
That angered me greatly.

guy i have one advice for you

Protect your pride, Protect your ego, Protect your dignity. Similar thing happened to me
Trust me i am a kind, friendly and playful guy too, one day in my company small issue the cleaner Treatned to report me to MD for bathing in the office.
omo see d way i changed am for her, the next day i didn't greet her, barely spoke to her, for like 5 days i only quickly reply when she asks me question with 'Yes'or No, but i continue playing with others.
She noticed it and
Now shes d one greeting me and saying thank you for little things.
but hey i am always careful with her

That Junior guard don see you finish, here's what you ll do, use him as scape goat, set trap for him small thing and once he falls report him to your oga, lie and put on top his head, you need to become the devil to protect and recover your lost pride, gather like one or two fellow guards in your support as witness (you need them) incase he lies.

If you don't act now that guard will work on your matter and before you know you will have enemies and from there they will remove you from there.
Also begin to tell your staffs there bad things about the guy.

Trust me people don't really understand our kind of people cos we can be Jesus and devil depending on which one you want

Indeed, he challenged your order. Since you have given him a query as directed by your management, it is left for the management to properly address the issue.

Don't worry bro. Keep at the job and your confidence level would improve.

It could challenging working with notorious people as subordinate. But with this, is there a way you can scheme that guy out of the company or have him redeployed? Do it if it's possible, but keep an eye on that guy. Any little thing he does wrong, make sure you escalate it.

Before now, I usually sit with them especially when I came newly. They revealed some secrets of one another to me but as months went by, we never had those sittings again then, the guards began to align. I will practice other points you've highlighted, thank you.

He can't be redeployed except, sack. I am watching him and others closely. There is the other who is engineering this one. I will see a way of breaking them. Plus, a staff of the company is their ally. I will see a way of getting something from their close relationship.

He just pleaded with me to let all things go that he is truly sorry.

I will reach out to my bosses for their final verdict.

Unfortunately, you wasn't meant to be an alpha, you are not a leader! Go get another job where you can follow instructions.
Talk to your Manager to change your position because its not you, but if you still want to carry on, you gotta have a leading mindset take control and speak with confidence, cultists, armed robber or kidnapper you are The Boss and what you say should be final except otherwise. if you can't then run away and be a good follower.

You just have to put yourself deliberately in situations where you can exercise your weakness, and with practice, it becomes strength. Your voice may be shaky today, but if you command again and know exactly what you have to say by practicing before hand, you would definitely get better. Even the best commanders once had such shaky voices.

As to your subordinate undermining your authority. This happens everywhere. Being a leader, is about reconciling your unit, to trust in your leadership. You have to convince them. You could have had that conversation with the affected lady privately, conveying your objection or reservations about her attending the event, and how doing such goes against the company policies and can get her fired. If you have done this, perhaps, there’d be little to do with the rest of your subordinates on the matter.
Don’t antagonize your subordinates, you are supposed to coordinate them, they are meant to support you. If you go down the road of the dogs or pigs, you would get torn apart or muddled.

This is all an opportunity for you to learn, I hope you use it judiciously. The little skills you learn from navigating this successfully; can certainly be the basis of subsequent leadership opportunities for you.

I have seen oga that are half dead but no one challenge them or the other able body subordinate would beat shit out of the challenger.

He just need to find a place he can recruit young men that desperately need the job and start firing the jokers. Replacement.

Don't care about anything except the work (if they are laughing, let them laugh but no one should slack in carrying out their duty). Don't give orders except in relation to work... Then when someone disobey your order, you soul would know they are mental to do so and expect to retain their job (it would be justified rightous anger).
