Re:Beware: New Police Officer. - 2008/02/01 05:13
Yeah, quite a little revenue maker we've got on our hands. It's out of place for sure.
Hey, I'm not too bitter, I've nagged my wife for years to obey the signs. Just follow the rules and you've got no worries. In theory.
But it appears this gentleman is taking 'Fife-ism' to a new level. He also was a little curt with Michelle when she turned around to pick up the sippy cup our daughter dropped. Like a round pregnant woman was going for an uzi or something! So much for State employees sticking together!
I know most of our town officers and they are great guys, so I don't know what this fella's story is. But there is a point where common sense needs to be applied over the coldest letter of the law. Write a warning now and then. It's disheartening when some rookie treats our small town like it's Dallas or LA. You're going to encounter the same folks over and over, at ball games and in stores, at gas stations, etc. It pays to get along and not behave like the Gestapo, enforcing your absolute authority over everyone who crosses your path just to make a reputation for yourself at work.
That's for IT guys like me to do ; )
