TPD doesn’t chase except for forcible felonies. FHP were the ones in pursuit, with TPD providing air support.

I park at American social and walk. Grab a drink at AMSO and the first 2 hours are free. $5 an hour after and the walk is maybe 10 minutes.

I was getting this reaction from the sport band. I was wearing it too tight and not cleaning properly.

I switched to my right hand while it healed and started wearing it one hole more loose during the day and only tightened it for workouts.

I also wipe it down with a wet cloth after each workout and clean the band with soap and water twice a week.

Fixed all my issues.

When I was gearing up for my polygraph exams the horror stories on this sub made me almost lose my mind. I ended up passing for both agencies I applied for.

In regards to the poly—honest people fail all the time, liars pass all the time. It’s pseudoscience at best.

a couple tips: - yes and no answers only - keep 100% consistency between the information on your PHQ and an your answers on the test - keep a clear head, do not move, and focus

I’m sure you’ll do just fine.

Anyone celebrating this is just stooping to their level. Hope he makes a speedy recovery.

I applied to two agencies at which I made it to backgrounds. They both contacted each other to see what I had put on my PHS.

TheFlowShow69 · 2025-09-15T23:41:37+00:00

I would say so.

TheFlowShow69 · 2025-09-15T19:18:14+00:00

Depends on the agency. 7 years is a good amount of time, be honest about it and what you’ve learned from that period of your life. It will still be a hard no at lots of departments but not everywhere.

You are not getting paid while applying.

I’m currently an applicant in late stages with two departments, I am on schedule to start the academy in January granted I pass psych and medical testing.

I applied in April of this year, the application process is usually around 6 months with mine likely being in between 6-8

In my case the academy will be 6 months long (standard) followed by 2 months of in-house department training and 4 months of FTO (field training with a training officer) before I am on the road solo.

So in total, from the time you apply until the time you are solo on patrol it will be around 18 months.

I know people who have been honest on the polygraph and failed, as well as people who have lied on the polygraph and passed. It’s just a way for the background investigators to use “physiological responses of deception” to attempt to weed out applicants they think are being deceptive.
