I have been a cop for 3 years on the road and 1 year as a jailer/dispatcher.

Total 4 years.

Sure, why not. I'm easy. Eh, let me rephrase that. I'm not fussy.

I started off as a police constable at Streatham (LONDON) in 1976..... busy place, the Police National Computer JUST arrived then

1979 transferred to Gypsy Hill Police Station after horrendous problems over there - 2 officers arrested and suspended for theft, station expenses for School Crossing staff nicked and officers stealing from cars in the street (they were arrested by "internal affairs") + more

you can imagine I was NOT interested in going there AT ALL

1 morning, my Chief Superintendent said to me (in passing) "I heard you volunteered to go to Gypsy Hill, well done"
I was speechless 2 weeks later, I was there

I've been a police officer for eight years. Five with the LAPD and nearly three with my new agency. Two years of reserves and even explorers before that. Things are always changing, but it's still a great job...
