Wooha... managed to miss this completley. Grats Mey! :clap:

In sweden its 2 years of school, then 1 year of practice before you can actually call yourself a policeman. Have a friend who is about to finish his practice and an old co'worker who is 6 months in on the first semester.

Its worth pointing out that my training is very much the bare necessities of policing and the rest comes with frontline experince and one to one tutoring, I'm not in as a full time policeman (yet) but as a special constable*. :)

well done, now don't turn in to the buggers we have down here they are soo patronising and bolshy i have gone from being a whole hearted supported of the police to bearing them distinct hostility whenever i see one (honestly lol 2 episodes of sheer incompetance one of which put me in danger and several cases of extream rudeness)

be a nice policeman and i'll love you forever

WOOT!

Only sent my application off yesterday, got a phone call today asking if i'd like to attend tonight (being the keeno I was I said yes) rolled up without preperation and passed!

:D:D:D:D

Congrats!

One thing to bear in mind before you actually do the job, if you haven't already go visit these blogs and get a good idea about the realities of policing. If you already know, and have still signed up to it - more power to you!

The out of shape coppers are because long hours + stressful job = difficult to keep motivation to work out. Also most long-term coppers tend to develop a decent drinking habit to cope with the stress which doesn't help!

If you're wondering how i know this, quite a few "job" friends and used to work for Police Recruitment in the Southwest many years ago!

oh yeah and not to throw a dampner on it or anything but you do realise that if you do become a fully trained policeman then you will die the day before you retire right? i mean its actually a law now that if you don't get murdered by an evil, derranged psycho your colleagues will slip something in your tea and make it look like an evil derranged psycho had a grudge against you

hehe! :D

Atleast someone would have to go to the effort to plan my death then, rather than just old age catching up with me!

Dont be like the cock of a cop I encountered yesterday.

Driving in town, in traffic. See 2 cops on the other side of the road, one was FAT BASTARD & I looked at him, thinking " gee they take em that large". The dumb fuck cop, obviously thinking im a terrorist, murderer, tea leaf, what ever - crosses the road, inspects my tax disk, radios in for confirmation & continues I assume to check the car for defects, drugs what ever.

All this in a traffic Jam. Fucking cock head, all because I looked at him, and he knewww I was looking at him because his belly could have been used in Hawaii 5-O to surf on.

Please, dont be a paranoid fuckwit like him, give cops a good name if u can !
