Merry Crimmus aka Work Sucks

[hopefull]

Just got home from work. Today was my last day, I only responded to one call all night, spent the rest of the time dropping off goodies with the different departments I work with and saying my good byes. Finished off the evening cleaning out my locker, vehicle and files, can't believe how much crap I managed to hold onto.
On the bright side, at least I don't have to work Christmas Day
Merry Christmas

Turns out our stabbed caller WAS a hoax. We found the guy, a carnie that was on a parked train for Ringly Barnium and Bailey Brothers or whoever the circus company is. Ended up arresting him.




I did however give myself an earlier Christmas Present.

All the thug clubs were letting out and people were acting like....animals. I had a short fuse from working and some personal issues. Some idiot is walking along the sidewalk with his friends doing the typical thug "talk-****-and-act-bad-***" routine. He was also carrying a bottle of beer. An open container is arrestable and myself and my partner informed him of such and made him put it down.

He proceeded to run his mouth which used up all of my remaining patience. He made some comment about getting his beer and walked over like he was going to do something about it. He turned back around was walking away and shouted a comment over his shoulder.

"F#@% OPD, F%$# those police"

F#@! me? I don't think so buddy.

"You in the white shirt stop...you're under arrest." With an arrogant and cocky look he walked on.

Ding fries are done.

I turned the back of his neck into a handle and introduced him to the ground in a pile of his own arms and legs. We snatched his arms and he bowed up. He made a return trip to the pavement and I administered my department issued "liquid magma" aka pepper spray to his face.

As we tried to cuff him his friends started moving in on us. Math was never my best subject but I'm counting at least 6 other people and I don't like those odds. They're getting pretty agitated with the screaming, cursing, and so forth.

As I my knee was on dirtbags back I pivoted to the crowd and gave them the I-am-definately-not-joking (tm) voice.

"Back off."

They just stared at me. That's funny last time I checked I was wearing a god damn police uniform.

"Back off, do it now"

I got another round of blank, and contemptious stares.

Ready for surprise #2 you simple motherf#@%ers?

I carry streamer pepper spray.

I hosed down defendant two, who was wearing a T-shirt with a picture of a Glock on it that said "Welcome to my hood."

Girl friend stormed over to do or say God knows what. I dosed her too which shut her up and stopped her forward progress in best NFL fashion. My partner is finishing up the cuffs on dirtbag number one.

I was hoping Mr. Welcome to my Hood would have wised up and said "I gots to go." He wasn't that bright so I had to at least make an attempt to arrest him. I snatched him up and by this time the crowd is absolutely bonkers.

I'm thinking this is about to get real interesting. And in some disturbing way I'm loving it.

The calvary shows up in the form of four other cops that were working off duty nearby. Baton-a-ready they were ready to give out some attention. The four officers actually charged the crowd at a full run. They were some Maginificient Bastards.

The crowd decided it was time to take a 10-8 and beat feet to get out of the way of this freight train.

Dirtbag #1 true to form cried like a little girl. When I informed him his mouth got him "extra police attention" he proceeded to tell me "aw I was just talking ****."

Aw....I wasn't. Enjoy Crimmus in Central Booking!



Dirtbag #2 was at least polite and cooperative. He was also oblivious to reality. He was flex cuffed in a holding cell and had been there....about an hour and fifteen minutes. He knocks on the door and sincerely asks me:

"Excuse me, can I go now?"

It was just SO innocent and sincere......especially from the guy wearing the Glock Thug shirt "Welcome to my Hood."

What part of handcuffs, pepper spray, and holding cell leads you to beleive you're going home?

"Hey Todd, this guy wants to go home. You have the handcuff keys? You know what, just give me about 10 minutes to finish up this paperwork and find the handcuff key ok? LIke 10 minues....seriously"


My night went a lot better after that.

[metallicat]

Definately not a cop then huh:rolleyes:

I'm off to work, in the loosest possible definition of the word!!

Except for the fact that my base salary is less than probably every single cop in this city.
