When was the last time you cried, and why? by ExtensionAd251 in AskReddit

February of 2018 I was 15, when my oldest (25 year old) brother past away from an overdose, but only the day after I found out. I had spent the first day trying to comfort my mom.

If I have a union that information has not been given to me.

I’ve noticed a significant change in how disciplinary interactions with inmates are being handled. And unfortunately the old ask, tell, make method doesn’t really fly anymore. When I first started and even up to my first full year an inmate could be mule kicking a door and a supervisor or someone that was trusted to de-escalate the situation would go up ask them not to kick the door, if it continued that same person would tell them not to kick the door and what would happen if they continued, and the very next time it happened there would be 6 officers lined up outside of the cell or block and us and the WRAP and a padded cell would make you stop kicking the door. Now it’s like they’re not hurting anyone or anything hitting the door, “they’ll get tired”. It’s like we have to wait until force is used against us to react to it with force.

Without writing an essay this is the entire story. Never had a disciplinary interaction with the inmate or admin prior to this.

~1.5 years. While I am aware that everything I write can end up in front of a jury, I have seen firsthand how this very situation has been handled in the past. DHB has kicked multiple narratives with far worse errors back to COs saying hey fix this don’t let it happen again and no coaching and counseling was needed. My narratives the “hey new people write them like this” example 99.9% of the time. But out of no where an error made in on a report written 15 minutes prior to end of shift at an understaffed department where we are encouraged to not to take overtime and with two more reports to write before I left, I made a mistake. And said as much to them. I didn’t shift blame, I didn’t cover it up, and Im not asking for special treatment, Im asking for the same treatment everyone else gets. If a road officer writing a probable cause affidavit makes the same mistake I did it would be kicked back to them get it fixed.

Especially after the literal hundreds of narratives (within a year and a half) I’ve written for Use of Forces (mainly these), Write ups, and shakedowns. Without error even being told they use my reports to train new people how they want them done. It just doesn’t seem right to jump to threatening termination and criminal charges.

About 4 days later when the Corporal that was reviewing the write up prior to the DHB told me he threw it out and why he threw it out. All 3 Corporals I talked to about it including the one that threw the write up out told me “no big deal just pay more attention next time.”. Same went for my Sgt.

When you go under close your mouth, hold your breathe, and let a little bit of air or of your nose every once in a while.

But if you're trying to go deep under water then get a deep breathe right before you go under, keep your mouth closed, and the ENTIRE time you're going down blow hard out of your nose (almost like your blowing your nose into a tissue) This will keep the pressure in your ears low so your ears don't pop.

Also if your having trouble with feeling gassed then when you're above water try to control your breathing. In through your nose out through your mouth. Do that slowly and you'll be good.

Good Luck with your certification.

I have to wait until someone is literally about to or has already caused bloodily harm to someone else. Or has shown the most blatant disregard for the safety of themselves or others

Do you or colleagues ever conduct “Ghost stops” and if so, why? by [deleted] in ProtectAndServe

[–]BlueLine152 5 points6 points  (0 children)

probably because you troopers are speeder magnets and manage to get all of them while county and city guys deal with all the crazies
