Yup I am not one of the affected 51, but I will be transfering to BPD.

Come on. We'll be glad to have the help. We've been running ragged out of West Precinct, of course we don't have enough cars to fill all the beats though.

Hey stillamarine,

I hope to go to West Precinct after graduation. I hear it's wide open over there. Maybe we'll get to work together.

[stillamarine]

Bama, You will learn more in your first couple weeks at West than you might at other precincts. I got my first Signal 9 in my first hour of my first day. Got my first foot chase and first 35 Foxtrot on my 3rd day. West Evenings Shift is the place to be!

Remember keep your academic average up and you can have a good chance of getting what you want.

[Bama CO1]

That's what I'm looking for! Action and adrenaline! I've heard that West Precinct has it all. I'm looking forward to graduation. 10 weeks down and only 10 more weeks to go!

[BamaCounty]

Be careful what you looking for Bama.

Talking about short handed and run hard..............try working with DPS/AST.

Not true...East is the new West and has just as many calls, part 1s, etc. Ever since they closed alot of the projects west/north and sent them all east, east has been off the chain and has FEWER beats/cars available.

Been that way for a while now.

[stillamarine]

Agreed East has gotten busy. But talking to my classmates after we got off the car it seemed like I had been exposed to more at West than those East. Or South or North for that matter. But it don't matter, you stay anywhere in BPD long enough you will see enough to last a lifetime.
