Will That be Cash or 'Cuffs?

My young-adult son, Bobby, was living at home, while attending college, and working part-time as a security guard. He is a quiet fellow, not one for saying much, so when he’s in the mood to talk, I listen.
One evening, he came home excited to share a few anecdotes about some of his work experiences. At the time, I only wanted to watch the television sitcom Frazier. Since Bobby’s desire to talk is a rare occurrence, I clicked the mute button and listened. Soon, he and I were cracking up. For several months, Bobby would return home yelling as he came through the door, “Mom, I have a new one for you.” We would sit in the family room, and while I scribbled on my notepad and taped with a portable tape recorder, he would dramatize the incidences of the day. It was the most fun I had had with him since his early teens. I discovered that despite his usual serious demeanor, he could be quite funny.
I decided to write the story from his perspective. The stories told here are creative non-fiction based on incidences Bobby experienced, and while I had to paint a picture to bring the characters to life, the stories are true. The names and some places have been changed to protect the good, the bad and the funny.
