People are allowed to discuss things, Nyeti. When people talk about things, there's no need to get so damn ruffled as if everything is an impingement on your unassailable, omniscient experience. Drop the fucking "Salty LE status" quirks on me to, while you're at it. We're all allowed to discuss things here, and I'm not speaking down to Wayne or anyone else in this thread as if I'm the single god damn authority.
I can't wait until I'm a broken, grumpy asshole who looks for fulfillment in life by denigrating people new to the job simply for being new to the job. Maybe that's how you ran things back on your shift, but you're not on your shift. I'd ask you to notice that nobody else in this thread with decades of experience equal to or superior than yours is being a prick with me over the fact I'm discussing things with people.
Can you just drop it?

TGS....Sure, I can drop it, and I am sorry your feelings are hurt.
I was a salty boot. Competitive shooter, first guy recruited off a University campus, all the whiz bang gear, up on all latest officer survival tactics.......I learned very quick from some real salty folks who learned a lot over the years that there were many things not in the book, that Stressfire sucked, and a lot of what I "knew" wasn't how reality or the broken system worked. You tend to have a black and white view of a world I have found is very grey, and often things that should plainly be black are made white by someone in charge.
So....I ll just drop it and you can figure it out on your own. I got nothing left but experience to share, if you don't like the delivery....I guess you can be in a long list of people who don't like my delivery. If you can get past my general grumpy negativity....you may find a bit of wisdom that likely came out of mistakes I made myself.

We've been on a roll lately. Tom, you might want start digging that pole out of the closet
I'm trying to find a copy of that letter. It's in a big mess of stuff I did a data dump on when I left that job.
I am the owner of Agile/Training and Consulting

I am not a negotiator, nor do I intend to play one on the internet, which is often more like Thunder Dome than anything else. ;-) BTW, if this is Thunder Dome, I'm the dude with boomerang:-)
I got a few PM's from people here (thank you, btw), regarding the direction this thread started to go in.
I know both Nyeti and TGS to some extent. I *think* that TGS used the word afraid in one of his earlier posts, and that it was not taken as intended. I'm pretty sure TGS wasn't calling Wayne anything negative, though I understand how someone might disagree with my take on it. Nyeti can be pretty argumentative, just like me and others here. Wayne has been very professional in all his dealings that I am aware of and pussy is not how I would describe him.
Can we go back to picking on stupid NJ politicians instead? :-) Also, if someone could send me a slice of Newark Pizza (the only town I ever came close to shooting a cop in, BTW), I would really appreciate it. Outside of the Bronx and Newark, good pizza is hard to find.

SLG....yep, seeing the word "afraid" applied to Wayne set me off big time. I ll go back to how much I hate New Jersey. By the way...best pizza.....Fillippi's in Little Italy in San Diego.
