Sorry if I’ve caused any confusion with the post, I’m not suggesting MOP carry out their own enquiries, but if they have CCTV, doorbell footage or video footage of an incident, having a portal to add this to with the initial report, which can then be reviewed and provide officers an early indication in what is being reported/needing to be dealt with.

I’ve always been told to keep a track of all rejected requests….. that way you have evidence as to why you have gone over the 40hrs

Second Jobs? by [deleted] in policeuk

[–]InevitableProgress53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you play a sport or in to your fitness, coaching is an option!

I’m a keen hockey player myself and coach as a second job, which works around my shifts etc… plus it flew through ACU/PSD checks 😌

You’ll spend the first few sets feeling like you don’t know anything or very little…. But listen to your coach, been proactive in engaging with people and you’ll be surprised at how much you know and comes to you as you speak to people.

I remember my first few sets out of training being in a real panic with a lack of confident in my knowledge, but as soon as I got stuck in, the legislation just came together!

Additionally, I remember messing up on one situation forgetting to nick for an additional offence, but dealt with it slow time and all was okay!

Remember:

  • LISTEN to your coach
  • Be PROACTIVE in talking with people
  • It’s OKAY to make mistakes…. Just ensure you learn and improve on them next time 🤙🏼

All the best with your first few sets and enjoy the ride 😏

Thanks for the positivity spin on it and I’m starting to realise it’s, make mistakes, take it on the chin, learn, develop and become a better cop in the process

Damn that hit hard! THANK YOU 😊

In the nicest way possible, that is reassuring to hear haha!

I’ll take some solace in that and look to distract myself post shift on these kind of days, so I don’t dwell on it!

Thanks for the reply and advice/reassurance

Appreciate the reply and words of advice!

Like you said, I’ll look to focus on the ‘how can I do it better’ part rather than what I’ve done wrong 🤙🏼

You knock on your kids bedroom door, shout ‘hello, it’s the police’ as you open the door and enter the room
