Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
Nothing is going to happen if you don't do anything. Why contact the police if you don't want to cooperate with the investigation?

Were you proud or embarrassed to tell people you worked at McDonald's?

Is it uncomfortable having to help the elderly go to the bathroom and how did you get used to it?
CBP Officer
Do you catch less marijuana at the border now that it's being decriminalized in some States?
There are a variety of variables in this situation. For example, you haven't seen your father for more than a year, yet you are still driving his car and he has been paying for your health insurance. Does this mean you are a minor and incapable of providing for yourself? Were these things required he provide you by court order? If so, he may be required to provide certain things to you by law and/or court order.
If you are an adult, I would suggest that you (1) get your own health insurance, (2) get your own car, and (3) don't talk to him if you do not want to. If you tell him not to call you and he continues to do so, you can change your phone number.
If a court order is in play, you and he need to abide by it.
Of course, none of this is legal advice. You should contact an attorney for advice.

No idea - I didn't work at one of those departments.
I would sincerely hope that people were not promoted based on a test score, but when you mix government and unions and there is rarely any room for common sense.
Promotion should be based on ability. Most tests are only analyzing a person's ability to memorize a set of facts.

Fair is a BS concept typically used by people who covet what other people have. Life isn't fair. Life is about choices.
If a person wants to work for NYPD, they know what the job pays going into it. If a potential applicant wants better pay, they will go elsewhere. If the citizens of New York want the best possible people applying to be police officers then they will offer more competitive salaries.
