That is the college administrators and some police chiefs way of operating....don't improve their departments so people don't want to leave or pay them a competitive salary.....just cut their legs out so that they can't leave.
But that's Massachusetts for ya...... |

SSPO #16 for me.. 16 for 16 weeks... -PVD Mass State Police Training with one PT a week "I dont think so" Irish, I stated that they ARE TAKING OUT one day of PT a week.. not that there will be one day only a week.. So please read every word first b4 posting back.. FSCPD, I believe that shortening the academy by two weeks, evens out the classes when u drop a day of PT.. not really sure why they are doing it.. but Im glad to be in the last class of 16 weeks. Good luck SSPO 17 |
