      Quite an old listicle I read more than 10 years ago, but I still remember #1; “The Armed Security is Terrifying”

      First he details how massive security was for the vice president of the US. Then for another high-profile politician, with Secret Service.

      But by far the most security we’ve ever had was for big oil executives. We shut down two entire floors for them that only a select few hotel employees were allowed on. I was not one of those employees. Unlike the Secret Service dudes, rich people private security is as twitchy and heavily armed as every single character in a Michael Bay movie.

      It’s not going to be easy, but I’m up for it.

      Let’s make the ultra wealthy people so afraid they’ll start hiring tasters again.
