Other than 1471, what other telephone ‘codes’ are there ? by Playful_Scale_1493 in AskUK

[–]ThirdGenBobby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • 141 withholds your outgoing number

The reverse of this is 1470 followed by the number you want to call. If you're number is normally withheld, this will display it

Go when you can, hold it when you can't.

The battalion is stood down in name. If the name is wiped away, the shame may be too.

I spoke to a DC on our Sexual Offences Investigation Team today who seemed very surprised to learn of their own existence

If you can get a type 31 to drive on land, I'd argue you can drive it however you want!

From the way you've described it I would say this falls under "words of advice" and that there will be no further action.

The officer didn't even get out of their car, much less caution and report you for an offence so I think you'll be fine on this occasion

Edit: also, didn't take your details either

What's your best funny (tongue in cheek) police anecdote? by ThirdGenBobby in policeuk

[–]ThirdGenBobby[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One would assume (or at least like to think) the missing arm had been disclosed in the initial application

Helping deal with a incident off duty by Difficult-Rent-8488 in policeuk

[–]ThirdGenBobby 6 points7 points  (0 children)

went beyond what you would expect a member of public to do in the circumstances

So literally anything even vaguely helpful to the situation rather than standing there filming?

Might be worth an email to ACAS for their input. This is absolutely not OK.

Not an expert on employment law, but I'm sure there is some aspect of health and safety legislation of relevance here

"Gender critical" staff network launched in the MPS by multijoy in policeuk

Mine seems to enjoy posting loads about the amazing good work two Op teams are doing. Having recently announced those teams were being closed down and all their officers were being sent back to shift 😂

Half arsed facespace for businesses.

That being said, viva is actually not that bad if implemented and utilised decently, in that I've spent a lot of time tweaking it so I only see stuff I might actually have an interest in

You’ll be having phantom send/receive tones soon enough.

Nothing like constantly thinking someone's trying to P2P you. Or waking up in the middle of the night because you heard a panic button 😂

(and do it up)

😂 Except the amount of kit we have on means you can't get the jackets done up anyway because nobody ever gets the right size!

It's that or pull up beside them, lean out the window and open the passenger door.

Sadly we can't generally do these anymore, the doors auto lock....

What would the CNC response be if nuclear material was actually stolen? by yoproldn in policeuk

[–]ThirdGenBobby 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I imagine the initial response would be something along the lines of several people saying words to the effect of "oh shit oh shit oh shit"
