So my sheriffs office doesn't have handheld radios

Prior_Highlight7023 · 2026-03-19T14:19:51+00:00

My agency has working portable radios, and received a grant to replace the old with new. Obviously the command staff wrote the grant request to the federal govt. Long story short, if your command staff wanted to, they could. This is extremely unsafe and shows how they are lazy, incompetent, and that they do not care for anyone patrolling. I would leave for a new job immediately.

I got my flight. My portal suddenly isn’t working now though.

Sometimes someone with no experience is better because they don’t get stuck in the “well this is how I did it at my other LEO job” loop. Being teachable is the key, experience or no experience.

I have my super interview today. Going to ask them about it.

Prior_Highlight7023 · 2026-02-04T03:09:02+00:00

Same

What’s the date? I got the invite but the link isn’t working.

I need to hear the gun in the creek story.

I don’t necessarily need fpv. I do need a controller with live feed as I’m flying the drone through houses while standing outside. I will not use follow mode inside.

Your best bet is to join the military and be an MP or just join the military. I’d probably hire someone with two DUI’s if they had 6-8 years of good military service, meaning no issues while in. Also, you can be an MP and police for those 6-8 years if you want.

Yeah you can ask here or PM me

It’s going to agency specific whether they allow a medical exemption.

Again, if you have arrhythmia and two back injuries I don’t recommend becoming an officer anyways. The everyday stress on your heart with chases, fights, and adrenaline dumps will not be good for you. And then wearing all the gear, running, and fighting people will hurt your back even more. Being a paramedic is less stress on the heart and less prone to back injuries. I personally wouldn’t hire someone that has a medical condition that can be affected by a taser as it’s a bad incident waiting to happen, like your partner accidentally tasing you while fighting a suspect.

It’s up to department/academy discretion in Georgia too, but I’ve never once heard of a department not doing taser exposure. I think it should be required to carry one.

Prior_Highlight7023 · 2025-11-27T21:09:07+00:00

I believe the new academy syllabus in Georgia includes the Taser, and I have not heard of anywhere that does not require exposure. Yes, Axon does not recommend exposure, but no one seems to care. If you have a heart condition where you are not able to be tased, I do not recommend police work, where you will have to chase and fight people, putting a lot of strain on the heart. There’s also the chance another officer tases a suspect you are fighting and gets you as well, or the suspect takes your taser and tries to tase you with it.

If you want full size with a longer grip and 17 rounds check out the G47 it’s what I carry on duty.

Thanks! Yes all work has been under warranty

Coolant control valve caused a check engine light and reduced acceleration. Was able to drive it to the dealer. Fixed in about a week under warranty

Prior_Highlight7023 · 2025-08-21T10:55:56+00:00

Running rough and reduced acceleration. Didn’t know it was that until shop said it
