Working in a security agency is simple. We protect people or valuables. There’s nothing much to it. When you’ll need us to secure a person or item, we’ll protect them with all we’ve got. And what exactly do we have? Bravery, wisdom, and dedication to the job.
If you know anything about our line of work, you’ll know that communication with our peers is an essential factor of the job. If anything dangerous goes down, we’ll need a medium, a system of communication to use. For that, we use a portable walkie-talkie.
Why walkie-talkies?
Walkie-talkies have long been used since the Second World War. It was a device you could use to contact fellow soldiers in the heap of battle. Now, walkie-talkies are used by security guards, police officers, soldiers, and mercenaries all around the globe. You’ll still see the walkie-talkie in Singapore being commonly used by the authorities.
The portable walkie-talkie is such a useful device. It’s popular for a good reason. It’s been in service for more than 8 decades. That reason alone proves how a walkie-talkie is such a beneficial item for people in my line of work.
Whenever you need a quick way to contact someone else, the walkie-talkie is the reliable gadget for you. As long as the person you’re in contact with is using a walkie-talkie of their own, you’ll be able to communicate with one another easily.
Our agency still uses walkie-talkies because they’re durable, convenient, and quick to use. Compared to walkie-talkies, mobile phones aren’t just designed to accompany the roles of law enforcement and soldiers. They require access to cellphone networks, and they’re not as quick and reliable as the portable walkie-talkie. With a walkie-talkie, you can use to contact your comrades in an instant.
Brilliant work of art
Walkie-talkies have been around for a long time, yet they’re still used in certain situations. This work of art has lasted long enough to prove its worth.
I’ll give you an example. Imagine yourself as a police officer, but instead of having a walkie-walkie, you’re equipped with a mobile phone. This mobile phone is the one you’ll use in emergency situations. You stumble upon a crime and you need back-up right away. But since the mobile phone takes a little longer to use, your back-up arrives a little late.
The mobile phone just isn’t cut out for immediate contact in case of emergencies. With a walkie-talkie, police officers and soldiers will be able to deliver a message instantly. All you have to do is press the button then speak your voice. Your message has been delivered.
I wouldn’t trade my walkie-talkie for another communication device. It’s reliable, tough, and easy to use. There’s no other device like it.
