I used to be of the impression that when you called Police they would be on your door step within 5mins... since doing this job that just isnt the case unfortunately. Ok your all got the hump because Police didnt turn up to your call asap... fair enough, in an ideal world there would be an officer available for everything. The problem is we dont have a magic bucket of Police officers who we can use when we have run out.. fact. It doesnt matter where the Police Station is in relation to the call, if there are no Police available then who are we going to send? the station cleaner?.
Dont you think the officers are just as frustrated in not be able to deal with these calls? Believe it or not we are not all sitting in the canteen eating proverbial donughts, getting fat and laughing at the tax payers.
Im just getting sick of these posts where People who clearly dont have a clue are trying to stick it to the old bill.
I feel sorry for the boys and gals on the response teams, no matter what they do or dont do they are always at the poo end of the stick.
I dont normally rant, but come on...
