I have worked a shift with someone who texted his entire shift, rarely looking away from his phone while patrolling low income housing.

I have had a combative individual take a swing at me, and as I took that person to the ground, the other security officer I was working with that night froze. I had to instruct that security officer to get in between another person and the fight I was in, that security officer snapped out of it and proceeded to assist.

Addition: I have also worked with someone who purposely slowed down when we were called to respond to a situation.
