    Types of calls

    Are there any type of calls that you get that you cringe and think, "Jesus, not another!" and typically dislike having to go to? What would some of those be? Are there certain calls that you crave when the day/night is dragging on? On any of these calls, how many times have you had to kick in a door? :D

    Domestics I dislike intensely.
    Suspects on premises I thoroughly enjoy.

    Calls I hate-
    Any type of sex crime, nothing good ever comes from them
    Domestics
    Animal complaints
    Civil disputes
    burglaries

    Ones I like-
    Anything where I can catch someone in the act. Working nights, that usually means a suspicious person call. Unfortunately, there are few people observant enough to report things when they see them happening.

    Burglaries. Hate them. People in the town I work in know there is a lot of property crime yet they refuse to spend the money to put an alarm on their house.
    You know the difference between a job and a duty? A job you can refuse to do because it's dangerous; a duty you must do even if it is dangerous.

    My opinion, maybe 1 of 200 is more than just a hang-up

    One of the main reasons I tried so hard to be a boat officer (aside from sun, water, and bikinis:D) Is that there are no domestics and very few transients, and when I'm off the water I don't answer routine calls but pretty much go hunting on my own.

    I spend most of my land time backing up other officers. The regular road patrols are VERY shorthanded. Occasionally i'll pot DWI's.

    As for hangups, we've had a couple of major cases derive from them, but the majority of the time hangups are kids playing on the phone.

    EXACTLY the same for me except for likes add in:
    Traffic collisions
    Be advised, I'm mean nasty and tired. I eat concertina wire and piss napalm and I could put a round through a fleas *** at 300 yards. So why don't you hump somebody else's leg mutt-face before I push yours in.

    I despise hit and run reports.

    Any in progress calls are great.

    Highway patrol does accidents here. Domestics and civil matters sux. But the absolute worst call that I cannot hardly stomach is a child abuse/neglect case. I don't hate much but I hate those.
