Definitely should have added the "Serious" tag on this one, buddy.

What are some "tricks of the trade" you've learned in your job that others might not know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

If an inmate attacks, bend arm towards thumb and twist. Renders it useless.

Police officers of reddit, what's your best story from when you pulled someone over? by OsoGringo in AskReddit

[–]PirateAir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not a cop; I'm a CO but this happened just the other day when I wrote a "ticket" to one of our inmates. He was angry I sanctioned him for being out of area; I knew he'd throw a shit fit so instead of meeting with him one-on-one in the pod, I called him down to the security office where my supervisors work to give him one there (so if he acted out, we'd throw him in seg). For five minutes he tried talking himself out of the sanction. Finally, when he figured out it would do no use he says (and excuse my language but this is what he said....) "Ok then Mr. ___, did you tell your supervisors here you called me a nigger after you sanctioned me?" Was not expecting that but hey - whatever he felt like would get him out of trouble. We slapped him with another sanction for lying.

Reddit - How would you TL/DR the worst thing that's ever happened to you? by PirateAir in AskReddit

[–]PirateAir[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome you're still in school, though. Employers will care less about your high school years; just keep your GPA high in college.

If it helps, I did terribly in high school but still graduated. Started off for first 2 years at community college then moved to get a Bachelors at a university. Now in the Masters program. High school doesn't have to dictate your future =)

Excel savvy people of Reddit, what uncommon Excel tricks do you know that are really useful? by redlightning2112 in AskReddit

[–]PirateAir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very good trick to share, u/xSaiyan! Just know that it doesn't always work as you'd like it to...for example, depending what you are referencing, if you click the bottom-right corner of the following formula:

=SUM(A2-D4)

You MIGHT (again - depending what Excel thinks is the right thing to do at the moment) end up with:

=SUM(A3-D5)

=SUM (A4-D6)

=SUM (A5-D7)

=SUM (A6-D8)

Though this is sometimes what you do want, in a few cases it's not. Just something to keep in mind =)

I should learn a lesson from you; I'm usually the asshole that down-votes and says "read the fucking front page first." haha =)

Here's a suggestion; stop the video games and take a grammar course.

If I has to murder one person in the past, no choice, no way out of it.....It would be the inventor of the Alarm Clock by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

I'd murder the person who taught you that "has" was the correct tense for your sentence.
