so what do i put in this journal , what shall i use it for?
what would someone actually want to read? short stories are out and i have no nack for poetry. so i have been pondering on this and decided. i will start documenting events and people i encounter at work.
because most people on here probably hate the police and i happen to do this for a living, i figure i can enlighten or simply amuse people with the stories of my career. i hope the people, if any, that read this journal gain some respect for the crap an officer deals with daily on the job.

so today it is raining. it hasn't rained in a couple months and people forgot how to drive. i work couple accidents off the bat. nothing serious, just bullshit fender benders. the reality of an accident is this, if no one is hurt i am just documenting someone's stupid mistake for some insurance company. insurance companies have people bluffed into needing reports for everything.
next i go to get a shoplifter caught stealing a $15 bottle of perfume. she had the money to pay for it but this housewife gets some kick out of stealing. so i get to do 2 hours of paperwork, fingerprinting and bonding because she needs a little thrill.
to end my night i get a domestic disturbance, one of those great ones where i pull up and the front yard is covered with clothes and pictures. some chick, who would be attractive minus the crystal meth addiction, is standing outside bleeding from the head. seems her ex-con boyfriend choked her and tryed to bite her thumb off. not sure how that one came about. well as she is running out the door he throws a candle and hit her in the back of her head, hence the bleeding. of course the boyfriend is gone and she "loves" him and isn't cooperating. funny thing is she has some warrants and ends up going to jail.
justice for all
