Just for the record... Someone asked me if i was a cop since i stick up for them a bit..No i am not,but two members of my general family are so i see the BS they put up with on a dayly basis.... I would not be able to do the job simply because i would no doubt batten some C@#t before my first day was over... I saw a post this morning where some clown was moaning that they got ticketed for doing 60 something in a 50..remind why the world is so F!@#ed up.

I thought that was a sports channel. Is this the upgrade to the Comms centre we were promised?

Nah...we had ESPN in 1993 when I worked in the Control Room (before the Comms Centre)...they took it out.

Didn't have complaints back then over taxis being sent to jobs etc...

When I worked in the Comms Centre in Auckland the bosses complained when we asked if we could watch one of the Bledisloe Tests. Meanwhile the fire guys sat back and watched the whole game - but of course they can considering the amount of calls they take in a night.

I might add that this was a Sat night shift with only five of us working to cover the majority of the north island. Still, you gotta be free to take all those calls from the drunken arseholes who want a ride home coz they've drunk all their money aye?

Harrumph - most of them claim to be blind anyway "Sorry , didn' see ya" . Personally I think blinding those that aren't already is no bad idea, it's easier to get away from them when they can't aim at you

Excellent! So you're saying that if a car driver pisses me off, I can bring their skin into Taka Station and you'll give me money for them?

Diffy one cause I ride with high beam all the time and if it means that I get noticed then tough.....I once had a green headlight cover on my old bike and I had a lot less near misses....discovered illegal but begs the question about how to make bikes more visible/stand out from cars.

But after getting a speeding ticket for 65 in a 50 from a bike cop while I'm riding a GSXR 1000 K6, I now have no interest in the wellfare of the Police.

geez mate...ya do the crime, ya do the time... what was it a whole $80?
I'm sure you can afford it with the K6 in the garage. Shame about ya spotless record but if you speed, eventually it will catch up on you....as I'm sure it may with me one day.
65kms is enough to kill someone....no matter what you are riding/driving
At least you have a digital speedo... damn sight easier to see what speed you are going than a conventional one.
You gonna hate all cops just cos you got a ticket cos you fkd up??
People are strange...

Either that or if something happens - You hoon back to the station, plant your arse in the chair and type, type, type. So your fanclub can have a little excitement and fullfilment in their lives.

So you had a bad day, you poor bastard. Just think how many people you give bad days too.

This sort of bullshit turned me against cops in an instant.
This is the way the country are going, can't you tell? The cops are becoming the scum of the nation because people like me - Work my arse off every day, pay heavy taxes, spend my tax deducted money on GST Taxed items and then get penalised for 65 in a 50.
You should try a K5/K6 sometime, I have to look at the speedo every 10 seconds because I may have sped up 10kph without realising.
What a load of Bullshit this Government and it's Police force!
You wanna lower the roadtoll? Then impose heavy fines and imprisonments - Take a page out of Singapores book.
In NZ we seem to have found a fine balance for making the maximum profit out of road offences.

Speaking statistics, what about the 6 officers that resigned the force in December, proven guilty of offences by the Police Complaints Authority and then given the opportunity to resign the force or suffer being expelled from the force.

Anyway dude, to cut a long story short. When you've had a bad day - Learn how to wear it on the chin! It's your job! If you can't handle the heat........

You sound like a 14 year old
