How you treat your friends

[retdetsgt]

If and when you become a cop, you need to be a grown up and have grown up friends. Not a kid that plays with illegal fireworks and flaunts the law.

Wow! Bummer to lose friends just because you chose a job

Seriously, if you lose so-called "friends" because of the job you have chosen, were they TRULY your friends anyway? And if they are the kind of "friends" who would keep putting you in situations where you have to chose between them and your chosen profession, again, are they truly friends?

Don't worry, you won't miss them once you start working as an LEO, and you'll even make new friends. You'll see plenty of the former type of "friends" on a daily basis as you deal with them in your line of work.

Wow! Bummer to lose friends just because you chose a job. And thanks for the 4 HAVE to reasons and the discretion quote. Already learning and haven't yet started my CJ classes. Thanks for all the input.

Please understand that the four mandatory arrest situations I just mentioned are Massachusetts specific. Other states have different rules.

Well at least the discretion quote was useful then.
