Please make sure to check on the security guards‘ behaviour.

yelling to ask joy to get back into the building was the rudest way ever. there is no urgency to yell at that situation. she just wanted to greet her fans, she even didn't move closer.

joy & neither the manager got a proper advanced notice, what she got was getting yelled at. i think the situation could’ve been handled better as she’s been doing this ‘mini fan greeting’ for the past 2 years with no problems
