Well in these tough times you can't be too picky about someone who wants to hire you so you can pay your bills. Casino security is tough to break into without a connection or experience and all I've got is some criminal justice degrees.
I got word today through some friends that a strip club they use to bounce at before they became cops is hiring a camera room person to handle electronic surveillance. They're in pretty good with the managers so I've got a higher then average chance to get hired, and the last person left for a better paying job with a local casino so I guess it must open up some doors.
My question is... what does a camera room person in a strip club do? I've heard they have to monitor the girls so they're not doing drugs in the backroom, the employees so they're not stealing from the til, obviously the parking lot and such, I know some places they coordinate security but others they just call things in to the police or manager on duty.
Anyone ever done the job? The more I know the better I can tailor my resume.
Answer
Your security camera can monitor an employee break room, but not a dressing room or bathroom. You can monitor the cash register, storage room, hallways, and offices. Other than monitoring the employees to prevent theft or drug abuse, you will also be watching for intruders trying to get to the dressing room or break areas to get to a girl they just fell in love with. Theft from offices, store rooms, and customer vehicles is something else you will be watching for. I suspect you will also be watching the customers in the main room, looking for weapons, fights, drugs, and other suspicious behavior.
Hmm, security monitor in a strip club. . ., does sound like a fun job.

Have you ever used a trail camera?

I'm looking for some outside security cameras, how well do these cameras work?, and do you have any recommendations?
Answer
I have used a few different brands and models of security cameras and have some that I would recommend. First of all, I recommend staying away from X10 cameras. Although they are inexpensive, the poor quality doesn't make X10's worth buying. X10 cameras also don't operate over a wireless network which is something I prefer.
I feel that wireless network cameras are some of the most secure, high quality and easy to manage options available. Most people already have a wireless network for computer and internet sharing at home, so adding a network camera makes sense.
My first experience with network cameras was with the Panasonic brand. Although the quality was good in day light, the night vision was poor. Within a year the camera had burned out. This was the case for two different models of Panasonic cameras.
Then I finally discovered the Axis brand of network cameras. I have been running several Axis 207w models for more than two years and have not had any hardware issues. They work so well that I almost forget I have them installed. Now these are not necessarily considered outdoor cameras but I have them installed in my window ledges (inside) and they are facing outdoors to monitor sidewalks and door ways. They have very good quality in the daytime and even night images are good with minimal light sources. 30 frames per second video capabilities is very good for a camera in this price range.
The setup on the software side is easy and you are able to view live video over an internet connection using a web browser. It has motion activated functionality and good settings and options for custom surveillance needs. Recorded video can be played back using the included software. I like to watch what happened while I was away on business or vacation. It definitely gives me some piece of mind when I'm not around my house.
