Rent-a-cop - what does it mean?

A obnoxious cop with a very large "ego" who is nothing but a waste of space in the police district. These low lives would rather stuff their faces with donuts at a nearby krispy creme or take a nice stroll into the neighborhood and arrest anyone for just about anything than perform their jobs properly. They enjoy harrassing citizens instead of helping them in a time of need. They are very adament about one's situation. Also dubbed as "donut eating bastards."

Cop: Let's see here...who can i harrass today? *officer targets a bunch of teens chatting* Cop: *shouts out window* Go home to your fucking mother! It's curfew! *cop drives off* Girl: It's 4:00 pm you stupid rent-a-cop!!!

try being a "rent-a-cop" and see how you feel after an 8 hour shift. then tell me that mall security doesn't deserve any respect.

they all laughed when the rent-a-cop asked them to leave the property after they decided to harass a mall employee.
written by a 21 year old security guard that has no interest in becoming a real police officer, only has the job because it's better than fast food

dale: oh yeah, that guy hates public displays or affection.

Rent-a-cop

A slang term for a Security Guard (known as Security Officer in the business).

There are several kinds of people attracted to this work:

1.) The "Lifer": A loser in life who cannot do anything other than be a waste of space. These are the ones that make it harder for other people to perform a simple job of making sure a client's property doesn't burn down or get ransacked. They are insecure, lazy, and mentally slow. They think that they are somehow like Police or the Military. These tend to be in their late 30's and higher but you can see this sad excuse for existence in some 20 somethings that really fail at life. .

2.) College students: A lot of the younger guards you will run into who seem intelligent are usually in this class. Often this occupation allows for ample study time if done covertly. The pay rate is much better than most college jobs so they play it smart and do these kinds of jobs.

3.) Retired people: Surprisingly enough not every old guard you see will be an idiot. Often these are guys and gals who have retired and in order to have a supplemental income, they take on this job. They are often articulate and fairly intelligent for the most part.

816 Congress Avenue in Downtown Austin has a really bad Lifer at night. Go skate there in the alleyways to watch his dumbass in action. He's a real Rent-a-cop!

Rent-a-cop

Security guards, usually unarmed, that are hired by companies and rented out to agencies for things such as concerts or school security.

My school is full of rent-a-cops, armed with nothing tougher than their cell phones. Safe, it ain't!
