Playing in a rugby game where it's Constables vs Sergeants and above. I'm the only Special as well. Time to make friends and abuse senior officers, then probably get drummed out of the service because I'm the epitome of a disposable police officer.

I'm not in jail so that means I haven't dealt with police this week. A good start.

Are we talking 'No country for old men' quiet or just villages with 1000 people? Must be strange to do a shift and not literally be rushing from call to call for 10 hours.

That idea scares me, when I'm on it's never alone and if we ask for backup it usually arrives within 90 seconds. If you push the 'party button' for a serious incident like an officer getting a shoeing then you can easily have 100 officers there within 5 minutes. It must affect your risk assessment every time you turn up to a job when you know that no one will turn up if you get a knife to the chest.

Just got out of my mock Sergeant's exam. Was bloody hard! 3 hours and 150 questions. Fingers crossed! In my force you're usually operating within another force's area so the speed you get back up varies. In one area we can export incident logs over so it can be quite quick to get back up. In another area we have to dial the same number as members of the public so it can take upwards of 10 minutes...

My dept went to a fight/stabbing earlier in the summer and the 2 officers on duty ended up having to fight with several people. No help came even after the dispatcher tried calling several agencies in the area, whose own one or two cops were tied up on their own things. It's another world for sure, nothing like the first dept I ever worked for where you'd have a dozen cops backing you up within a minute of calling for help. I literally dialed 911 once on my personal cell phone to get backup from the county. Edit- get lost, sergeant scum. No stripes or bars allowed in the lounge.

Don't think we have numbers quite like yours but in the right time the response is great. Every man and their dog come out the woodwork for such events. When cops in the marine unit divert (in uniform, not wet suits) to the helicopter its a good sign of winning.

Look at the be-lipsticked harlots in that Fox News clip, being all sexy with their...uhhh... t-shirts and flirty smiles. You really can't trust the integrity or credibility of women like this:  I thought it was going to be some Carol Shaya level stuff, not cops in normal friday night dinner attire. If their departments have a ban on posting photos in uniform to social media then OK whatever, take em down. Edit- Someone please post dude pics from the Blueline_beefcakes instagram, the news mentioned it but didn't show any photos. I need to see those. For science. Or you can post your own pic. I promise I won't report you if you're hot. Pilot to Gunner fucked around with this message at 20:41 on Dec 2, 2014 |

I'd smash the back legs off the one in the T-shirt. That's a normal 6/10 but a Police 9/10, detectives would be on that like flies on poo poo.chartley posted:The power of the red button is immense. Don't think we have numbers quite like yours but in the right time the response is great. Every man and their dog come out the woodwork for such events. I was on when 2 female officers were getting bottles hoofed at them a few weeks ago, the red button got pushed and I was half a mile away writing notes in a police station. I've never seen so many officers, many of whom whinge and bitch about a 5.4 beep test, sprint that half mile to help their fellow officer. Nice to know that no matter how hosed the police service in England is, you're mates still have your back. We also seem to have some sort of romance going on with our local paramedics, they are all hard as nails and work incredibly hard and any time one of them get's in trouble even the unmarked reporting cars cut a dash to look after them. I guess with the fire brigade hating us so much it's just nice to have some friends sometimes.

I figured out what the "red button" is from context and that sounds pretty neat. Nothing like someone yelling for help and you have no idea where they are.

polygraphs are bunk science, don't let the questioner stress you out and you'd do fine the facebook page Survive the Streets: A Page for Cops keeps using the hashtag #certifiedwolfhunter I want to strangle every coworker who shares their statuses. Sheepdog was stupid wolf hunter is straight dumb, gently caress the police who use that stupid dumb poo poo.

I live in a town of 40k. We run a minimum of 4 officers plus a supervisor. Some days we have 5 or 6 and a supervisor. Between 2100 and 0100 we have 2 shifts of dudes on the street during overlap. I can't even imagine 12 cops showing up to anything.
