I know what your saying, it's better if they fall out now, rather than out on the street. It just sucks that they wasted 6 slots in a class though.Sometimes people just talk a really good game, then when it's time to step up...they're just not what they claimed to be. They may even have families and past coworkers(who don't really know any better than to believe their BS stories) fooled and get a good reference. I've always said in the military, "Don't tell me what a good troop you are, show me". Either way, this is what the academy is all about, weeding out those unfit for the profession. Trust me, those of us on the job were just given 6 favors.
They think that just because they took the CS test and passed it they're entitled to it. These people really don't want to do the dirty work (ie: wrestle bad guys in a piss filled hallway, work boring shifts day after day, see the human suffering at a bad accident) Let's face it many of the people who drop out and some who make it through the academy think it's all CSI shit. They haven't wanted the "job" for years.....just from the time the recieved their passing grade in the mail and one of their friends said "Dude, you would be a great cop" or "Oh my Gawd Girlfriend you'll look so cute in the uniform" That's where some of these people are coming from. Hey I like hockey and would love to play professionally....but I would Have NO BUSINESS even trying out. With police work, evryone thinks they CAN do it.I agree Killjoy...im wondering why...for those of us that have been waiting, taking tests, working Security and would crawl from home and back every day for the oppurtunity I would like a reason...so I could make some sort of sense of it...I dont get it...dont take the fuckin job if you arnt willing to step up wtf..
We had one of those in our class, remember that Sarge? They are better gone now, because later they would make more problems for the class.Sometimes people just talk a really good game, then when it's time to step up...they're just not what they claimed to be.

Both of our new hires, GONE! And they only had 7 months to prepare for day 1 (not counting their whole lives before that). Better now than later though.If someone could give me a little more info I would appreciate it. What exactly made them quit, was the DI yelling at them and they couldnt take it, could they not handle the physical part Imj ust wondering what was the final straw.

If so, what academy did you go to? You should know what happens with those who quit and why they do it. If someone wants to find out what happens strap on some khaki iniforms come in and see what happens. Don't forget the first rule of the fightclub, don't talk about the fightclub.If someone could give me a little more info I would appreciate it.

The fact their testes haven't dropped yet.If someone could give me a little more info I would appreciate it. What exactly made them quit, was the DI yelling at them and they couldnt take it, could they not handle the physical part Imj ust wondering what was the final straw.
No, he isn't, but at least he's going about it the right way.Just wondering, are you on the job? If so, what academy did you go to?
