Job Perks are a fact of life but...
 

Just found this site:
http://www.copswritingcops.com/home.html

It's a place where cops can go to vent about other cops who gave them tickets. For the most part I don't really have a problem with it. I mean it's common for people to get job perks. I'm a Network admin at an ISP and I get all the free web space I need, I get free digital cable tv and my Internet connection at home is faster than a residence can buy from us.
On the front of that page though there is this rant:


Police giving each other 10mph though would be a perk, but 20mph? I don't know about that, I'd think that was a bit much. What do you think?

Does you receiving perks involve breaking the law?

I love how cops think they are above the law, just because they are the law. Good for her.

84.9 mph? I've ever seen speed recorded in tenths before.

If I get a ticket for going 20 over, everyone should. Unless the cop is feeling particularly generous. Just because she's a cop doesn't make her special.

Most company perks don't involve breaking the law. They involve getting free stuff.

you just "found" this site, it was posted in the other thread yesterday.

At least be honest.

Now on point, it is a job perk, not officially and I don't ask for. I didn't get a new driver's license with my uniform on, I didn't carry a big ass stupid wallet so I can carry a badge next to my License, and when I've been stopped I only say,

"I got carried away and didn't realize I was speeding. I have no good excuse" and gotten warnings based on that response and not my profession.

I have stopped people before from neighboring departments and they'll ask for professional curtosy. I know you all will hate this answer, but because the examples I was involved in where all instances where I would give anyone a verbal warning anyway. So it is what it is. They were about 10 over and I would have given Skip a verbal warning, so I did for the officers too.

Since I hate people's sense of entitlement, I too would have no problem writing this ticket we are all talking about. The officer was going way too fast, and of course should not be considered above the law.

It said by airspeed, plane of chopper and they do it by time and distance, giving a more exact speed. I don't have much experience in that arena, except I once was stopped by MO highway patrol from a plane, I was 20 years old and going 99.9 MPH.

what the **** is this shit? What the hell do you know about what shit I clicked? That site was posted on another forum I frequent not 2 ****ing hours ago so blow me while I **** your mother again.

Wow ... LMAO ROFL

do you think it was too much?

While there is usually an unwritten rule of "professional courtesy" between officers most of the time, there are exceptions and most guys I know extend the courtesy to: doctors, nurses, and school teachers.

nah, you can do better.

No one is above the law. I see cops speeding all the time without lights on. Pisses me off.

Not even Leonitas is above the law.
