Help needed: A Funny List

[chmodx]

A few years back one of our sergeants posted a really funny list.

The list was of the different 'duties' of each patrol officer type, like swat guys always working out, detectives sitting at starbucks for 3 hours a day, and the midnight people collecting flashlights and thinking everyone is on something(which is true!).

Anyhow, has anyone else seen this list on the internet anywhere? I'd like to get another copy of it.

Thanks in advance!
