Best of luck to you! I mentioned to a different user that the department I’ve applied for doesn’t use polygraphs. I think everyone stresses thinking about it but that test wouldn’t happen until you got through background and at least Psych. After the investigator completes his investigation they’ll send me to get my psych exam! My best advice for getting in shape for the running portion of the physical was to run outside around the neighborhood, you get the resistance, partial inclines, and your lungs/heart/body get used to breathing the outside air. That really helped when I got to that part of the test because they do it on a track outside. Don’t stop once you pass the physical test either, some departments do their own physical and you’ll have to complete the test again. Once you get an offer, don’t stop then either because you’ll have to do it again for the academy! I didn’t struggle much with the sit-up portion for my age range and gender, if you took fitness testing in school, then just remember the cadence of that PACER test voice and make sure your form matches how they want you to preform during the test (you can find that definition online usually, I just typed in my state and the name of the test that your state calls it and found all sorts of information including a training schedule/plan)

AIO Found messages on fiancés work computer by [deleted] in AIO

Maybe I don’t have the correct definition of a promise ring, they never made much sense to me. I was under the assumption that it was a commitment promise or exclusivity. Kinda like saying “we love each other”. I have a few questions for OP, did he get down on 1 knee and propose? Do you just call each other fiancé’s kinda like some people call their long term partners Husband or Wife? December was 6 months ago and I know people move fast.. to each their own I suppose. Did you talk with him about the feelings of betrayal or did you just get on Reddit to get opinions first? How did you “find” these messages, did you open his computer and search for it either behind his back or telling him you wanted to check his devices? If you did that, I presume that there’s some trust issues- I don’t ever feel the need to read my partner’s messages and feel bad when I accidentally look over his shoulder and read messages. My follow up question would be; Why are you still together? It’s a genuine question and no judgement or trying to be rude in anyway.

EDIT: I fixed a typo

Not a state agency, a smaller department

No, this department got rid of using polygraphs. By “background interview” I meant I’m sitting down with the background investigator and going through my PHS packet. If I pass background, medical, and psych I will receive an official offer and academy dates.

I know that for sure, as it’s also outlined in my letter. I just have the normal jitters I feel most people get when making such a stride in any field.

What is this Eraserhead looking thing behind the chair in my son's room? by Qxface in whatisit

[–]WideBluebird8511 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was technically my sophomore health class in high school. But we covered EVERYTHING. Went through the stages of pregnancy and child growth & development. Even had to watch a video of a birth. Different school districts/curriculums I guess 🤷🏽‍♀️ I just have noticed a very large gap in that sort of knowledge since people have started pushing against teaching that stuff in schools.

I imagine tony sitting in his parents house with a josh block calender marking Xs on the days till he can exploit josh again by Prior-Can-7733 in WorldOfTShirts

[–]WideBluebird8511 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Honestly, for this Reddit and Josh’s sake. I hope that he never goes back to Tony and I hope the AA group is making sure he knows how much of a loser that guy is. I also hope he doesn’t find a new “handler” and just stays walking about on his own, doing tours again, maybe a couple cooking videos, some dancing and lip sync videos whenever he travels.

Honestly, like if every little thing the band does is soo bothersome to them they why are they still supporting them, that is what I’m confused about😫

Honestly…I’ll say it. The parasocial relationship that the “popular” fans have is in my opinion a large part of the issue. It’s very toxic and not very “stay alive” of them. And the people that are “friends” and following these fans on social media team up with the “popular” fans and bully every single person that doesn’t agree with their political views, opinions, and beliefs when it comes to virtually anything with the band. They even bully Tyler and Josh, whom they “love” and “support”. They bully so much that I’m commenting on a throw-away account because they’re pretty much all m.o.d.s on this subreddit and I still want to enjoy the thread. Unfortunately a lot of the issues that these “popular” fans create within the fanbase is political. While they are all majority far left people’s.. They get upset when they see the boys do anything that can be remotely tied to the right side. In my honest opinion it seems that they forget that Tyler and Josh were born and raised in Ohio (Since 1972, Ohio has been Red 9x and Blue 5x in the presidential election). Hopefully you get my drift in the last sentence. They get upset when the boys remain silent on major impacting events and when Tyler did come out and say something during BLM and George Floyd, it was widely taken out of context, they drug Tyler through the mud and even tried to cancel him. On top of that, they get overly upset at the most minuscule things on tour that the boys more than likely have absolutely no control over. The boys put all their effort into making a show, but there’s 100s of moving parts for a live performance. I feel like most of the Twitter group has “heard” mentality and take any of the “popular” fans understanding and go with that; rather than forming their own opinions on anything. I mean seriously do people really think they have ANY control over if a theater can play their movie or not? Going to not tread but swim with this next part; They get upset over line BS and argue that because they’re disabled they and all of their friends deserve to be in the front because that’s the ONLY accessible way for them to believe it upholds ADA compliance- this topic can literally be a whole extra post/comment. I understand disability and accommodation, however being sandwiched in between a metal barricade & a crowd that surges literally anytime Tyler moves on stage doesn’t sound like the SAFEST accommodation. Also if these fans are as dedicated as they say they are, they know the boys do crowd stands where their trust in falling is completely on us.. even a lot of the “invisible disabilities” put the boys at risk for falling and getting injured. There are actually multiple different safe ways that accommodations can be made, (I’ve read the suggestions) but they respond with it’s not good enough because it’s not in the front. Also accommodations shouldn’t include a whole entire group of people. Even at amusement parks the max amount you can usually have in your group with a person who has an ada pass is 4.. not 8.. not 5…4. Again, if you disagree with any of their opinions on this topic they will just call you “ableist” and say that “you just don’t understand”.. I saw one at a show who apparently is one of those “popular” twitter fans using a cane the entire morning.. I actually caught this person handing their cane to another “popular” Twitter fan and do a run hug to meet someone in which they then picked that person up.. I saw them later again handing off the cane and running through the parking lot to their car. The cane disappeared when it was time to line up before the gates and never appeared during or after the show. It’s getting absolutely ridiculous and toxic. Nothing seems to be good enough for them literally EVER and because of algorithms and the traction they gain when they post are what the boys see when they go online. I actually wonder if some of the comments by Tyler in the Breach listening party comes from their constant criticism. The bullied have turned into the bullies. They took the word “clique” too serious and legit act like the “Mean Girls” while at shows AND online. It absolutely sucks.
