Yes, that’s the rumour they did. Which makes me think they committed a huge fraud. Most companies know their financial situations and usually go through a bankruptcy process which includes lawyers, accountants, financial advisors, etc.. ATS continued to willingly and knowingly take funds from people...

Can anyone share when in the process for TPS references are required?

Usually when you go to background. So after you pass the meeting with the head shrinker.

Do we not have enough nuts on Facebook about this kind of stuff already!? I don't think anyone asking this question is a nut. I think many lawful people have these concerns, including first responders and military who also happen to be lawful firearms owners. I find it funny that police get dragged...

I've made no bones about the fact I despise ATS. In fact, when I was hired I pretty much burned the certificate. My annoyance with ATS isn't that it's required or even paying. It's that they are not transparent in their marking schemes and how much they charge for persons needing to reschedule. Bein...

It's not a requirement. That being said, don't think the trainers at TPC won't be harsh on you if you roll into training shaped like a potato and struggling to hit a 50 on it. They will also expect to see improvements in the mark's when you return from OPC. The PIN is far easier to train for as ever...

I think the program is a good idea, especially if your call volume is busy. He arrested 4 people for stuff under $10? How about getting the stuff back and telling them to take a hike? I I've told him that. Get CCTV footage, post their pics for his staff and next time bring them in. He refuses becau...

I work in 52 and can tell you the amount of Theft Under calls we get are insane. We have one LPO who owns his own company and use some his SGs to watch people he's arrested while he goes out and arrests more. For amounts as minimal as $3. I'm not kidding. One day he had 4 people arrested and each wa...

PS "rarely getting a lunch" is VOT...
Take your lunch or claim the OT.
We deserve breaks and down time.

Yeah, I know. We get a "no lunch hour taken" and it gets banked in our cashable time. I never work for free.

[ Where do you work? That is BS. Admin can be done on shift. Reports can be done on shift. You are screwing the membership by showing up on VOT to do paperwork as you show we don't actually need more members because the X amount we have can do it all in their shift. Essentially you're making a bad ...

Depends on the paid duty. Some you are voluntold. Not quite sure how that works. Me thinks y'all have a shitty system. I don't mind. Lots of jobs expect that As for doing paperwork unpaid......ummmm no. It's not about hating the job or sticking it to management, but don't be okay with that. A big p...

What are the thoughts on English cops out there?

Their accents are fantastic over the air.

Seriously though, I don't think it really matters as long as you do your job and aren't a plug.

Yes and no. During the probationary period anything can happen. Honestly, you really, really, reaaaallllly have to f* up to get terminated during probation. Most services spend thousands of dollars on training a recruit and will make every effort to "counsel" the officer. Mistakes that ca...

Do you find that it helps other in your service? Time willl determine that. We still have quite a large number of the service to get through so if it's effectiveness won't be truly determined for years to come. The problem is, even though supervisory staff all the way up to Saunders have received t...

After speaking to management there turn over is an issue right now as they have had a number of people get hired as Constables, retire and become specials at places closer to their residence which is the only reason why they left. That would not be the true reason...... They are most definitely NOT...

There was a posting out for the special Constable position that will be used to supplement front line officers at hospitals, etc.
