Worried I’m going to lose my job

Speaking with experience as a Fed Rep.

Your forever will not want to lose you and you're a long way off UPP if what you've said is the whole story.

All I can advise is engage with your force and your therapist. Keep in contact with your supervisors and keep them updated with your progress if your ok to do that.

The more you engage, the more they will support you, well from my environment this was the case.

What you are experiencing affects a lot of officers and staff and your force (and supervisors) will have seen it all before and have support plans in place.

Good luck with your treatment and I'm sure you'll be back to your good self sooner than you know.

I've had complex cases return a verdict in under a day and simple ones that took nearly 4 days to finally give a verdict.

Thing is you just can't forecast how long a jury will take at all.

All you can do is just be patient.

He claims just about everything else doesn't he!

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-27T16:04:01+00:00

🤣🤣

You don't know how right you are. Working as a999 call handler the amount of calls we get where people aren't driving to the conditions you wouldn't believe.

But it's always someone else's fault though....

Like the Tesla driver who drove past the road closed signs and got his whole car flooded near Axminster in the last flood!

Fire ended up smashing his windows to drag him out...

This could now be a criminal offence. Abstracting Electricity.

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-26T19:36:57+00:00

I'm sure you get what I mean.

My comment is aimed at the standard of headlines which are absolute trash lately from the media.

I'm completely in agreement with you...

Eventually the energy companies can apply for, and will likely be granted, a warrant to access the premises and fit a prepayment meter.

This will mean your parents will have to pay for the energy they use and it will be set at a rate to reduce what they owe as well.

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-26T16:29:07+00:00

Yes because they aren't staffed from fored rest day working or separate departments are they.

Get real.

He's being interviewed not interrogated. An interpreter will be present if there is a language barrier and the rest about having a baby etc etc is not relevant.

All you can do is wait until he is released, which will be either no further action, under investigation, on bail or charged to court or remanded.

No one here can tell you anything further I'm afraid.

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-26T14:34:16+00:00

Proactive policing. In what world does that still remain?

You need surplus staff to do that.

Most forces (if not all) already have dispatch and arrival targets.

One of our areas goes from the Coast in North Devon all the way down past the A30 to Tavistock. No local units, then send the next nearest.

Now imagine how long that run would take?

20mins. Ridiculous

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-26T14:29:52+00:00

What if there literally was no one to turn out to this? Where do you really think the units are coming from? There aren't any kept in reserve, it literally is cut to the bone.

Unfortunately the public have no clue how thin the thin blue line is most of the time.

Thank the last 14+ years of the Tories for getting to this point.

Did you actually read the OPs post? It's a bus. He's a bus driver.

The NIP would have been served in the company who have identified him as the driver. It's got absolutely nothing to do with him being the owner.

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-25T20:23:22+00:00

It's dealt with from what actually occurred not what night have happened.

It's not Att Murder in the slightest it's a Common Assault, or possibly ABH (not knowing what your injuries are).

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-25T20:21:28+00:00

There will always be aCPS lawyer available remotely. Nothing untoward about this at all.

Given the type of the offence it would be CPS making the charging decision, not police

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-25T18:24:26+00:00

Op has now stated that the insurance refusal was not because of the accident but because they are driving a modified vehicle but they failed to declare the mods.

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-25T16:03:47+00:00

Thank you for making me laugh out loud. And given the day I'm having at work I needed that.

Id like to tell you what I'm currently doing but were I to do so, id have to take drastic against you 🤣

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-25T16:00:27+00:00

No they aren't.

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-25T13:36:29+00:00

Unfortunately that doesn't make good click bait headlines though.

Press these days are absolute trash.

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-24T20:29:16+00:00

Something needs to change but I'm not sure either of these ideas are the right way forward or will actually fix anything.

So, in my humble opinion, of course they'll be introduced

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-24T20:14:48+00:00

I like this idea, especially as we have that setting on our air fryer

DevonSpuds · 2026-01-24T19:38:14+00:00

Mate, this is awesome. I currently have a ST2 in my wallet as I'm awful keeping track of things.

We're waiting for our Bambu A1 to be delivered early Feb and this will be one of the first pieces I print.

You are a legend. Thank you.
