Pay has nothing to do with it. Nothing.

Here's an example. Your salary is $1M per year, or $10k. In both cases, you hate work, hate your job, don't want to do it, and...

can never be fired.

How does better pay help?

Better pay may help, but only conjoined with the threat of it being taken away if you don't do your job.

And amusingly, you throw out the "better pay" line without even knowing the salary.

I get what you're saying but it is a known fact that most corporate security personnel make not a lot of money. I work in a nice high rise and our front desk security people make $23-$25/hr.

That's probably higher than average.
