You're cute, but why would you ever WANT to be a police officer? I've only ridden in a cop car once and that was when they were taking me to this mental health center. Bad Times. I probably wouldn't have minded it if you were the cop ;)
I want to be a police officer because I like helping people. I would rather risk my life to save that of a stranger than to sit behind a desk pushing papers. I like the unexpected danger and adrenaline rush! It feels good to go home after a long shift knowing that because of the work I do, someone like is able to go home to his or her family safe.
Yes, cops do get a bad rap sometimes, especially traffic cops...We don't make the laws, we enforce them.
I want to make a difference, and this is how I am doing it.
And, I've transported a few to psych before... Everyone breaks down sometimes, everyone has times where they need help. It just so happens I am that person that WANTS to help. We are not all douchebags...but...I have had douchebag moments with people who are not cooperative with me... you cant be nice to everyone... thats how officers get killed...EVERYONE we come in contact with is considered a threat... it is the mentality you have to maintain... I know to many officers that have died in the line of duty because they let their guard down... You can ask my friends, I am a completely different person when I am on duty.
