Your class stories of the academy

Running and consequently losing weight will certainly help when it comes to doing pullups :laughing

BTW LEO's, how many are required to pass?
 
Law enforcement is a "team SPORT"? WTF? I get the analogy, and I assume this was just meant for your ears, but please don't call LE a "sport".

If you look at it that way, it may be fun for you, but hell on the rest of us. It's serious business, and should always be treated that way.

And be careful when you do get hired, a lot of guys are weeded out after failing the highly informal IA test: another officer asks you to fudge a report and you do, thinking it's "how things are done". WRONG. Stay clean and honest and watch your credibility soar, contrary to some public perception...NApe
 
Thank you for your comments, Nape.

I think you missed the meaning in my statement when I referred to it as a team sport. My intent is that we stick together and need to help each other out. If it makes you feel better, I'll say that it is a "team effort" in law enforcement.

Not a LEO, just play one 4 days a week; My pull-ups on my mid-term PT test was the whopping total of 2(due to a bad shoulder injury) and my percentage overall was in the top 10 in the class.

I'm still waiting to drop weight, lost tons of fat but no weight:cry

muscle weighs more than fat... if you are leaning out- your weight could stay the same...

my shoulders are so torn up- I'd be luck if I could do one girly pull up- but I could still make the wall.
 
windex,

this gives me hope I know I can push a bit more than 2 p-ups. hehehe

I am excited, but I know I will feel bad when I meet guys that are getting paid to excercise.

:cry I said it's because of a shoulder injury:cry

I kicked ass in everything else and getting paid to so helped alot:p

We have one guy who could only do 1, yes 1 push-up the first day who is now up to 20. So it just matters how hard you push yourself.

Here they are

I getting the 'We'll bite your ass' for my dog. Still wondering how that one got, since no pics of the K9 car made it to the press.
 
Here is the matching ride.

Just for those interested. The donut part was photo shopped but the rest is real. It was done as a joke and not received very well by the higher ups.

I can not confirm nor deny that I photo-chopped a fellow fire Chief and the picture was circulated around the state, including making it as the screen saver at the UNR state fire academy.

They also did it to a K9 car with "We'll Bite Your Ass" So I wonder how the people making the shirts found out about, don't remember it ever making print:dunno
 
Friend of mine told me about a Recruit in his Academy class that freaked out when someone moved his lunch in the refrigerator.

All the recruits went to the break room for lunch and the guy looks in the fridge for his lunch and notices that someone moved it back in the fridge to make room for their lunch. Well the guy yell's "Who the fuck moved my lunch?" "I get here early in the morning so I can put my lunch where I want it, so don't fucking move my lunch!" The made a complete ASS of himself, and now know associates with him.

It takes all types! :laughing
