• I’ve had job sites like that… But most of them were literally just sitting somewhere doing fuck all for 8 hours. Like when I was posted to a quarry for a few months and then a random dilapidated farm house after that. Just providing a presence as a deterrent for trespassers.

      true, just providing a presence is a deterrent for trespassers, But the human aspect of it is if an employer has a security guard sitting idly, bad things are gonna happen because that guard’s gonna get bored and do weird things. It’s human nature. So wise employers know that If they want effective security guards, they’ve gotta keep their security guards busy.
