Out of Synch with Police Academies: How Training Officers Get Police Academy Grads to March to the Real Beat - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

"Out of Synch with Police Academies" represents the most complete collection of classic cop quotes ever assembled. Woven into an easy, quick, direct, read, this book reflects shared officer's views, experiences, and opinion's, spanning from coast to coast. Written by a police officer, these words of wisdom represent the collective experience of hundreds of conversations with fellow cops. This is as close to putting your ear to the street without putting on a uniform. Each quotation, phrase, definition or anecdote reflects the feelings and opinions of a broad cross-section, not of one author or of a particular police department. Certain phrases may be geographically or department specific, not necessarily universal in coverage. What is universal is the desire for training officers and seasoned veterans to pick up where police academies leave off. Police Academy is to training as doggie paddle is to swimming. If you follow the academy manual, you'll drown. Sure you learn the basics, but there is far more to making a career of it and staying alive than that which is written in our Cub Scout Guide. Training officers on the other hand, offer a rookie cop reality based training, the kind of training that gets you home at night, with a tinge of satisfaction from the distorted humor derived from the crap a cop sees every day. Crap like people in your face, arguing, crying, coughing, hacking and screaming sh-t like you killed their brother who you never even met. Of course, there is more to it than that. There's boredom, pressure, fear, politics, image, and respect issues that plague each day, as well. A Training Officer trains you on how to deal with these pressures, how to work the system, and how to survive the streets. What follows is a wealth of wisdom, humor, language, and insight; the way you hear it on the beat.
