Rookie: On my last shift, I was covering lunch breaks for security. I think I saw something.
Kareem: Yeah?
Rookie: It looked like the CO working x-rays let a female employee through with contraband. Knowingly, sir.
Kareem: That’s a serious accusation for a rookie.
Rookie: I’m not a 100%, sir. But —
Kareem: So why bring it to me?
Rookie: It’s not something I can abide.
Kareem: You know, if you see something, if you 100%, come to me. But don’t seek it out. You do, the COs will see that, will smell it on you. And they’ll freeze you the fuck out. You alienate your brothers and sisters, mind as well just ask me to rubber stamp your resignation.
Rookie: I understand.
Kareem: No, son. I’m serious. You get jammed up in here, you get trapped on the range, you don’t want dead air when you call for backup.
Rookie: I understand. Thank you.
