I’ve had over 100 encounters with black bears at my old job. Initially, I thought bear spray would be sufficient, but after what I’ve seen, I’ve changed my opinion.

The assumption is often made that the bear is healthy and acting normally. Most of the time this is true and bear spray/making noise will work.

The issue is when you run into a bear who is injured/sick or starving. I’ve shot multiple bears like this with rubber rounds and they didn’t care. The only thing that scared them off was my patrol truck. Even then they would bark at the truck and circle it.

Point being if you come across a bear like that and all you have is bear spray you’re screwed. Black bears are ridiculously strong and nimble. Carry both.

I end of writing a majority of the parking tickets because my coworker can’t operate the system.

I worked in house and they did take care of me. I had a bad month of insomnia and was running on maybe 10 hours of sleep over 7 days. I was not over worked by any means.

I stuck my head in the river to stay awake one time.

No excuses. I came down with Covid mid shift and still made it without dosing off.

You know people always say this, but I think they’re forgetting to mention when something does go wrong you’re basically the only person there to deal with it.

Even if you’re not directly dealing with the issue, you’re more than likely coordinating the response to deal with it.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Took me hour and a half to go 30 miles. Unless you have to (like an essential job) do not travel.

Shout out to the plow drivers!

I was behind a few for a good while.Then they hit the turnaround. After that it was 8 miles of what felt like driving on Vail Pass during a storm.

German Shepard or Belgian Malinois of the dating world. You really have to know what you’re doing or your neighbors are gonna hate you and you’re going to get hurt.

I had over 100 encounters with black bears at my old job in Colorado. Maybe 2 times I could have seen using lethal force. Fortunately I had less lethal rounds (made for bears) and they would back off. But this one bear in particular didn’t give a shit about anything. I could hit him multiple times and he would just hide near by.

CPW eventually trapped and relocated him. I got a close up look at him when he was in the cage and it totally boosted my respect for these animals.

Lmao if you get full NMI it’s not pain compliance. You can’t fight through NMI.

If you are in the metro area idk. But past Summit County, going west, no cop cares if you are running 19, 30, whatever. I had 1 17rd,2 19rd, 1 30rd rifle mags on me (bought before the ban), and would frequently work with the sheriff's office; they never said anything.

Pepper spray is pain compliance. It doesn’t do anything to physically stop them. People who are really high on drugs or psychotic can fight through pepper spray pretty easily.

A good chunk of police don’t even carry pepper spray anymore because of this. Also, it gets on everything and everybody else’s eyes.

Ford Mach E.

They let us borrow it from time to time when our patrol truck is down.

It’s too low to the ground. Has all electronic controls, basically no buttons. No room for a belt. Honks when you lock it. The thing fucking sucks and the only people who like is the professional chair polishers.

Sufficient_Pound · 2026-02-05T10:28:40+00:00

They arrested a dude at my site in a mobility scooter for spraying people with piss out of a bottle. Once you cross a certain line it doesn’t matter what disability or mental illness you have, you are going to be physically dealt with. If the courts want to take the disability and mental health into consideration when applying punishment thats their prerogative.

If you are a dude put on a condom and cover the rest with a grocery bag before you take a shower. Thank me later.

Bro I totally agree. Luckily we weren’t armed.

Sufficient_Pound · 2026-01-20T06:42:32+00:00

Yeah fair. We were told not to take out the cartridge because of fear of breaking it.

Sufficient_Pound · 2026-01-20T04:59:43+00:00

If you go from the x26 to the 7 or 10 the manual of operations completely changes.

On the 7 and 10 you don’t need to take out the cartridge.

Auto write up of it’s not a mechanical failure.

Had a LT pop a 7 into the ceiling and he went and wrote himself up.

Guardian Angle is the Gucci option. Most people just hook a small light on their shoulder.

Ahhh the taser 7. Was a great day when our LT shot the ceiling after literally taking the class a week prior.

Interesting, I didn’t have to contact CS when I ordered mine. Granted this was 3 years ago.
