While Im sure this has been asked and answered already, Im too lazy to look for the topic. How does a lateral transfer work in MA Civil Service departments. For example, I saw that Watertown is looking for laterals. Does this mean that I would have had to have taken the civil service exam for that city? Or can anyone apply, i.e. me: a New york city pig that didnt take the Watertown PD test.

To be able to lateral you have to be working for a civil service town or laid off by a civil service town.

Just Curious?? :roll: Where did the "pig" term come from?

 

[SRRerg]

I believe it is from the old "Fritz the Cat" movies. Anyone else?

Pig? Jeepers, nothing like bolstering the professional image of law enforcement.

As far as I know, it began with the hippies as police clashed with protesters. Fritz the Cat didn't come out until 1972.

I'd check with Watertown PD.
The local PD I used to work at recently hired a guy who left a New Hampshire local dept. I believe he had to go to the R/I academy to learn Mass laws, but he definately did not have to do the FT academy again.

Good Luck
