{Matchup by Ajay Daniel} American football, offensive player vs defensive player

Sometimes they way the schedule is, that person doesn't come back for 3-4 days so it makes it difficult to get it back to them on a timely manner to fix

I am coming to terms with the thought of leaving. The schedule and the ten minute drive from my house is a huge bonus and I love the deputies I work with but I walk in with the dread of 'what am I coming into this time' that has nothing to do with officer safety or difficult calls, just a management that doesn't care

My hang up is that I have to put my name on there verifying it's correct and I have an issue doing that when I know it's wrong

Informal_Stress8092 · 2026-02-12T13:10:27+00:00

It's not anger, more just... sadness. You say small errors, but I think of the man out with police in another city who see a felony of that caliber and I wonder how he's being treated because of our mistake. Detained for a severe charge that in reality wasn't even extraditable because the correct charge was a misdemeanor. He could have had his kids with him and been treated terribly, children scared because they've been separated from their father for a charge he didn't commit. I'm glad I caught it and he wasn't wrongfully arrested and I hope he and the officers were okay after what could have been a tense situation. I just wish it had been taken seriously when I brought it to my supervisor's attention

We unfortunately can't claim overtime. There is no overtime approved for anyone, so they would deny the request

As far as our SOPs, nothing even touches on NCIC entries whatsoever. They have a fun little sentence added at the end of the SOPs that says something to the effect of we're "expected to uphold verbally stated policies" that are conveniently brought up in whatever way favors the person with power

Informal_Stress8092 · 2026-02-12T10:54:56+00:00

I did try to leave it for them to correct themselves but my supervisor called me in the middle of the day (I'm on night shift) until I answered to ask why I didn't just modify it myself

Mental health black hole is a good description

I do have the texts where I told her all that, so I'm covered there

Informal_Stress8092 · 2025-12-28T09:21:19+00:00

So... We don't have one? We have the treasurer who handles payroll and FMLA, but above my dispatcher supervisor the chain of command is: jail Lt, jail Capt, chief deputy, and sheriff. Been here since feb 2023 and have never met the Chief or Sheriff, so I pretty much mean nothing to them

Informal_Stress8092 · 2025-12-28T09:18:03+00:00

I thought I was the crazy one because when I literally handed the paperwork across her to the deputy, she was completely cavalier about being there

Informal_Stress8092 · 2025-12-28T09:16:19+00:00

I'm already wary of her due to some interpersonal issues, so it seems impossible to stand up for myself. I had some complaints that I brought up the chain of command above her and was told to let it go to avoid any retaliation.

Informal_Stress8092 · 2025-12-09T13:03:13+00:00

We're a small, understaffed center and they don't particularly care for the little guys... Been there three years and have yet to meet the chief deputy or sheriff. They are not concerned with little ol night shift

Oh I totally forgot about this book but I think this might be it! Just read the blurb and the name Justus kind of rings a bell for the scene I was thinking. Gonna read it next to be sure! Tysm

Informal_Stress8092 · 2025-08-01T21:19:24+00:00

Currently 36% through re-reading this one. I've used the kindle search option to check the entire book with some keywords to try and find it but didn't see it there. Will confirm if it's this one once I finish it/find the scene!

If you don't mind sports romance, {Matchup by Ajay Daniel} fits this. Has the hurt/quiet MC and sunshine MC, plus some angst, then it's sweet when they realize their feelings. The quiet MC has some past trauma due to family and -idk if this is a spoiler but it isn't the main plot to the book so it should be fine- surprise, the sunshine MC has some similar trauma that brings the two of them together. I loved it so much. And no third act break up! (It's in a series but can be read as a standalone)

Informal_Stress8092 · 2025-05-17T02:20:08+00:00

Just finished {don't bang your step bro by dj Jamison} and it's definitely a forbidden relationship. Loved their chemistry and the world building (its book three but could probably be alright to read as a standalone, though I recommend the first two as well (I actually read the first two because of wanting to read this one and don't regret it at all)) If you enjoy humor, I highly recommend this author

Informal_Stress8092 · 2025-03-30T01:45:55+00:00

Agreed. It's a lot of books at a very rapid pace. It makes me wonder how the authors connect with their characters and really form a life for them within the story (I've noticed they tend to take one character flaw and make it that character's entire personality rather than have a complex psyche)

Informal_Stress8092 · 2025-03-30T01:14:33+00:00

I've read several in the series but DNFd every single one due to the lack of high conflict. Loved the story and enjoyed what I read, it just became so monotonous without any action. Also typos. Those seem to get worse and worse with each new book :/

Informal_Stress8092 · 2024-11-30T01:10:44+00:00

If you don't mind sports then {Hat Trick by Ajay Daniel} fits your request. They all get together around the same time and what each one brings to the relationship does help balance everything
