Tales from the front

Just read the your job description PJ, bet you wish you'd written it ? Aye, not knowing what happens after the call must be worse than watching the first 20mins of East Enders every night & always missing the punchline to the plot!

After seven and half years of it Simon there are very few calls that interest me enough to pursue a result.

Most go: TA / area search no trace / TL

I would think it's a job with a high burn out ratio, at 7 1/2 yrs is it time to look to something different & lighter or are teflon coated by now?

[PeeJay]

Add thirty years police service to that Simon, definitely teflon coated.

[PeeJay]

Oh and we lose thirty staff a month across the three centres so yes, a high burn out ratio

[Simon Bolivar]

30 out of how many total staff? Sounds awfully high attrition rate for any company. Luckily the serious money is some compensation eh? That's what people always say when they find out you work offshore!

I don't know the total actually Simon but its in the hundreds obviously. When they run short of staff they just drag officers off the street to do the job.

Small rant time - just taken a call from a well spoken lady who's 16yr old daughter went out last night and hasn't returned. Has never gone missing before, none of her friends know where she is and her phone is dead. I struggled to hear a lot of what she needed to tell me because her father was ranting and raving in the background about her not being there for his birthday. You can't make it up.

[Sean]

Looks like his priorities are right

[ValeTudoGuy]

Well, clearly the dad did it and is already preparing to play the victim On TV.

The ideal Christmas present

I've just taken a call from a guy who has noticed that Selfridges online are offering for sale a 'knife edged knuckleduster', a specified weapon that it is an offence to sell or offer for sale. I suspect they may get a visit later
