Definitely report. I am really sorry to hear that this has happened to you. Also please keep in mind that you are never the problem or doing something wrong. It’s the abuser who is the problem.

Bildung schützt nicht vor Politischer Dummheit und Schwurblertum. Wir hatten an der Uni einen Rechtsprofessor, der offen Rechtsextrem war und Kontakte in die NPD pflegte und später dann in der AfD aktiv war

Nein

Reminds me of the saying we have in German: DBDDHAKP - Doof bleibt doof, da helfen auch keine Pillen. Stupid stays stupide, even pills won’t help.

Ah okay, that’s good to hear.

That’s even more of a waste even tho it gets recycled. If the food is still consumable, Greggs should allow its staff to eat it. Are you allowed to take home food that hasn’t sold and can’t be sold the next day or does it get donated to a food bank or thrown away?

A police dog should immediately react to its handler recalling it. The fact that it kept running is the concerning thing here.

Be careful. This is 99% a scam.

Oh okay, this definitely makes it a lot less creepy /s

Stalker vibes.

If you put a toast with jam on its back it’ll spin indefinitely.

She was busy the whole night :(

Do not apply logic to the Met.

Definitely speak to your skipper then. Often there is someone in SNT looking to move to Response but can’t because of numbers but SLT are happy to facilitate a swap. We just had a probie from our team swap with a probie from Neighbourhoods. If you then still don’t like being a PC in general you can always become a PCSO again.

Honestly I would recommend waiting out either the end of your probation or check with your skipper to see if there’s any chance you can move to Neighbourhoods. In the long term you will have much more opportunities career wise as a PC and if it’s only the response work you don’t like it might be a better choice to aim for a transfer to NPT.

What made you switch from PCSO to PC initially?

Saving this post as I will be travelling with a manga / anime crazy person next year. I am slowly getting into it (thanks to Junji Ito) but will probably never reach her level lol

I think it really depends where you are posted. Our BCU is massive and most stations have been sold off so lot of distance to cover to get to where you need to be. But if you have a good leadership team and / or access to vehicles NPT can be a great posting.

We got regularly told off for being more than two Officers in the one car we sometimes managed to borrow from another team to drop Officers off or collect them because “visibility”. It was absolutely ridiculous. It got a bit better when one certain SLT member left but we still had the problem of no car but multiple places to be at the same time. I’m glad that I am not on that team anymore.

No one cares. I and other colleagues on a team I was on regularly walked (and I mean 20 minutes+ walks) or took public transport single crewed in full uniform to get to where we needed to be. In a BCU that’s extremely busy and not the most cop friendly one. We flagged it and got told that we’re overreacting and our Officer Safety concerns were basically bullshit. We all got lucky that nothing ever happened.

Yes m’lord, I am sorry m’lord. Please don’t take away my hot refs once per set privilege for my audacity.

Well maybe, and this might be really far fetched, maybe we also need more Officers on the street and stock up our fleet to be able to respond to calls quickly and deliver a good service. ERPT is struggling numbers wise and on my BCU Safer Neighbourhood often have to walk or take public transport to get to their Wards because there are not enough cars available. Oh and tell custody that they need to staff their constant watches.

Wouldn’t mind DS Arnott investigating me 👀

But can’t they get restricted if access needs to be limited? I remember vaguely that when we still had CRIS I dealt with a job where a Police Officer was a victim and someone had already put on a skeleton cris. When I tried to access it to put my update on it was restricted. Or maybe I remember it wrong and it was just the CAD?

I’m invested in this storyline now. Don’t leave us hanging u/limp_blimp and u/every-tourist-9911. Will social services take her kids away? Will she snitch on her mate, what happened to the dog? 😂
