@cynicalbobby My shift got a talk from the drugs squad about a target who lived in our area . They had been looking for a reason to stop him after following him for a couple of weeks. My neighbour laughed as we had done home two weeks prior for drunk driving and they hadn’t PNCd him

Whilst being briefed as a negotiator by the scene commander I once pointed out that I’d likely passed the suspect on my way to the stronghold. Despite this the inexperienced commander insisted that I negotiate with a front door for 3 hours (despite getting zero response).
What’s the biggest waste of time that you’ve been asked to do in the job?

@ScotsCopper Whenever the mental health hospital wouldn’t admit someone I would ask for the names of the assessors. When they asked why I informed them that they would be to blame when the person jumped off a bridge. Every single time they changed their assessment & admitted them.

Have we lost our famous Irish fáilte?
I was literally two minutes late for breakfast in the hotel this morning. Tables still full of people eating, I could still see the hot and cold buffets were still out.
The Maître D’ apologised and said they finish at 10.00. I wasn’t in the humour of a row, so I said that’s a shame and left. He could have seated me, he could have offered a bowl of cereal to take to the room. He was right, technically, robotically. I was wrong.
In the early 90s, we stayed in the Great Southern in Killarney for the week. There was a waiter there. I’d say a college student. Still remember his name, Peter. He’d stand at our table telling jokes, nothing was too much for him.
Great service is remembered 30 years later. It’s how we built our tourism industry.
Now its computer says no with nothing to separate us from any other European culture.
Am I the only one noticing it more and more since Covid?
