Happy Holidays
 

Happy Holidays. Drive safe (makes my job easier if you live near me!) Enjoy your Thanksgiving if you celebrate.

whats ur job?

Police Officer (Patrolman)

rent-a-cop? biggrin:

j/k man

We are at times! We have union jobs where we can earn double time. About 2 yrs ago, a sophmore cop took all the OT and Union jobs he could get. The lucky bastard took 95K home on a 45k/yr base salary. Poor guy had no life!

lol i bet he was fat as shit and had acne craters in his face..

not to be mean but alot of cops down here in austin all have big guts(fat), i was just wondering is there a certain time you guys have to run a mile in or something cuz if that was tru i think there would be alot more skinny cops.

2/3 of our department are skinny guys, other 1/3 are big guys. They look fat but are muscle. They may do what Chicago PD is doing. They get a bonus for taking and passing the state POWER test (Police Officer Wellness Evaulation Report). I tell you the agility test to get in was easy, but the state tests were a killer. My age catagory had to do the following on the first day in camp: Sit and reach (to toes easy), 1 minute sit-ups 37+ in a min, run 1.5 miles in 13.46 or better, and bench 98% of your body weight. You have 12 weeks of training, the killing part was if you did the bare minimums in the tests, you were forced to run 5 miles a day every other day. If you were lucky (LIKE ME!!!) you got the option to workout in the gym instead. I chose to run a few times, but I don't like running!!! In the end, nothing felt better than receiveing my certificate of passing the state courses.

lol that sux if ur weak

come to alabama and stop all the snowbirds from coming down here and clogging up traffic , they get on our 45 miles per hour roads and do 30

WTF! its gh3y

Everyone have a great Thanksgiving.

I'm gonna be a cop too (hopefully), and our department requires that you run 1.5 miles in 13 minutes as well. Kinda pathetic, I can walk that in 13 minutes. How long have you been in the force, punk? I would guess not long, since you are a patrolman (no offense, they all start there). I wanna work my way up to being a narc agent someday.

Happy Thanksgiving all.

Don't forget to watch the Pats vs Loins, in their old uniforms.
Go Pats!

Happy Thanksgiving, drive safe, have fun biggrin:

eat all you can now because you cant eat like this again for 365 days..... oOo:

Hey guys,

Just thought I would extend my Happy Holidays to you as well. Oh man, I am so wasted right now. We ate a huge dinner, drank wine. My cousin and I played some Madden on PS2, drank wine. He beat me 49-45 with the Eagles, we then drank some wine. Oh yeah. Things after 7PM are a blur.

Anyways, take it easy, and don't drink too much, or else you'll end up like me...alone, and posting messages in a forum. I rule. Rock.

happy thanksgiving guys

LOL you know a friend of mine just graduated with his "Crim J" degree and then tried to get a job with the Portland PD......He had the job...until they made him run....he made it sound real tough.....1.5miles in 13min!!!! my god im going to bust his balls hard next time I see him!!!

3 years so far. I just got my take home car! Kinda nice parked out front of my house!

great, now you can own all the little n00bs in your neighborhood!

The car out front may make criminals think twice about doing something in the neighborhood, and cuts cost on vehicle maintenance. Considering we got hit with a $1 Mil budget cut, it may help the cost factor to the city. Go figure, we get $1 mil less a year, we have 2 casino's and the city is not in debt!

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, we are saposed to open a new sub-station this spring........wonder who is paying for it??? And they goofed up when they built the new firehouse last summer. They built it on the far out skirts of the town border where no one lives!!! Maybe Cityhall's officals are a couple of fries short of a Happy Meal?

A little late, but I hope you all had a splended and wonderful meal, and spirits were high with whomever you were with. My thanksgiving was nice, and Yams with marshmellows rule! biggrin:
