"Joining The Police..."

I'm seriously considering joining the police instead of going to uni - I think I've really had enough of being educated. I just want to DO something rather than being some crappy person who just writes stuff and doesnt actually make a difference. I think making a difference in life is the most important thing you can do and by upholding the law you're making a difference!

I don't know a great deal of what sort of thing I'd be undertaking by joining the force but I am sure it is better than etching out my existance in a lowly cubicle of a generic office block.

I want to get some information packs send so if you know any websites or places I can phone or write to to ask then can you help me out.

Thanks

Here's a question - can a police chap/chappess arrest you for calling them a pig, or their method of transportation a pigwagon?

Of course you were.

I thought I was clever enough for uni but apparently not. If I'm lucky I'll get B's and C's in my highers which I'm not going to get into uni with. Well not for the course I want. I may go to some crappy course just to pass some time though before the police.

The river police sounds good

Oi!
I'm clevera enuf to go to skool!
I just forgot to send of the forms!

What? If you're clever enough to go to uni, then go to uni. Don't waste your life in service of other people.

Unless you feel it's your duty to help e.t.c

I like where this is going.

There are many parts to the application. It's not just sending in a piece of paper.

You have to do role-plays and all sorts of things.

Did you not do all the training and stuff during that time? It just seems like a lot of wasted time when they could've been training you up. Ohwell

Did part-time work, (gardener for the National Trust), and relaxed a lot.
