Most days I'm good, but every now and then I just become mentally exhausted and want to leave patrol and do another job in the department where I don't have to deal with the world's idiots 10 hours a day (...actually 12+ now since we're on 12's with no days off until further notice).

Well I certainly appreciate what you're doing. I know you hear it a lot, but not enough during these times. I still don't know how you do it, but I'm assuming your upbringing gave you a different perspective on life and joining LE was a calling rather than a choice?
Either way, thanks for keeping us safe out there! Also, one more question since we have a dedicated thread for this lol. How do the majority of your colleagues (all races) view what is going on right now? And do you notice any bias from your black colleagues towards protecting the protestors? |
Thanks bro!
It all begins in the home. Upbringing is everything.
I notice no bias. We're all tired of it and we just want to go home to family and loved ones.
