“I’ve known Sam Griffin since his earliest days as a security professional. I have had many opportunities to observe Sam’s professionalism while he worked with me and others. I’ve seen him effectively arrange and provide security with a sharp attention to detail, and carry himself with a level of efficiency that was impressive for a man of his age. I’m proud of the work he has done building his expertise, as well as his own company. Anyone who reads this book will get great ideas about ways to plan for a security career they will be proud of.”

"Samuel Griffin III has been affiliated with our company in some capacity for over a 30-year period. He began his career in 1986 as a young, eager busser who quickly rose through the ranks to manager. In 1990, with aspirations to go into the world of business and ultimately the security field, he left Captain George’s to pursue his dreams. As fate would have it Sam returned to us providing all of our security needs through his firm Leumas Security Service, LLC. For over 5 years now Sam has given us, what can only be described as the ultimate security services and has maintained the highest quality and well-trained staff. It is clear to all he has an extensive background in the world of security. He knows how to provide the training and expertise needed to deal with the public at large and its unique challenges. I have no doubt the information contained in this book will illustrate Sam’s passion for providing the very best in security and all that it entails."

"I’ve known Sam for more than 30 years as a teammate, friend, and workout buddy. He’s a wonderful human being with a sweet disposition, and a desire to excel at whatever he does. I’m not surprised he’s sharing what he has learned about success in this book. I worked with Sam’s mother, Jackie Griffin, and the fruit did not fall far from the tree. She patiently helped me learn about computer operations at Fort Eustis, Virginia, and always had words of encouragement. If you want to be a security pro, I’m sure you will find encouragement in Rent-A-Cop Reboot."

"Rent-A-Cop Reboot is very easy reading, well organized, and I immediately noticed that many of the skill sets mentioned are transferable to other careers. The book is filled with stories that couple the challenges and successes of the work with a love for professional excellence, and its structure helps anyone interested in the security profession - whether you’re 17 or 70 - chart the highs and lows connected with achieving professional and personal success. It encourages you to focus on short- and long-term goals, and constantly evaluate your progress. As a retired public school teacher, I recognize the benefits and usefulness of Rent-A-Cop Reboot as a professional and personal development text. Anyone considering their next steps in life should buy it!"
