    define “work well”.

    I work in contract security, and I’ve spent the better part of a decade doing armed shit for that. Plenty of high pressure incidents. Nobody died, which was praised. But somehow I get the feeling the interviewer wouldn’t like that kind of “work”. (Like stuffing my hand up an entry wound when a construction contractor through-and-through’d his thigh with an air nailer. 9 penny nail hit his femoral artery. "hey buddy this is gonna hurt’ when the dude is bleeding out was, maybe stating the obvious. Yes. he lived. most awkward ambulance ride ever.)(in a fit of irony, their boss made him the safety guy. which he takes seriously now.)
