    Im in a great mood, the stupid tart that was trying to blackmail us (through the employment tribunal) out of a large sum of money got her ass handed to her today.........baaa ha ha ha. Aside from not having a case she was unaware we knew how badly she ripped off her last boss, so the name was dropped into a meeting & she backed off real quick......he he.


    JUSTICE FOR ALL!!!


    ps: so yeah on topic........talking to the 5-0 is good
    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded

    Something to do with 'arrogance'.



    (Yes, I know. You're all very surprised at that, aren't you.)
    So you find his conclusion surprising?
    Why put up the deception if you don't like the consequences?

    People you don't need to download a video to know how to talk to the Police. Everyone knows how the "Kahui's" did it and everyone had an opinion then.

    I approached and spoke to a female constable once.
    Twas at a toy run she was on duty at.
    I said, "excuse me, would it be possible to use your pen, i have just met an old friend (ex girlfriend0, and I would like to write her number down before i forget it".
    Seemed like a reasonable request, sunny relaxed day etc, no stress.
    F**king mole looked at me like I just shat on her bonnet.
    I was told, (the portable communications enscriber) was not for general use.
    Since then, I'll be polite, but look at them like they just stepped out of shit street central.

    Here's a much shorter & very concise video clip on how to deal with the Police.

    Probably the 50th time she had heard that this year.

    A lot of ding-bats see a police pen as some form of trophy and will go to all ends to get one - even if they are just a blue Bic.

    Cool ???

    I got ripped off once, went the police for help and got told it was a ‘civil matter’, but really they just couldn’t be bothered helping.
    A week later they were knocking on my door, along with every other door in the street, investigating some crime – I wouldn’t talk to them, told them it was a ‘police matter’ and nothing to do with a civilian like me.

    They would't give a fat rats arse but hey, if it helped you feel good (and got your 'ripped-off' money back) it's all good eh? .

    I found myself in the same situation several years ago, now that you bring it to mind.

    Hey, scumdog/Patrick/Indoo et al, genuine question: how do yous fullas draw the line between a civil matter of 'ripping off', to be ignored, and a criminal matter of theft, to be followed up?

    Edit: And, smoky, did you end up taking it to the Disputes Tribunal, etc, or could you not be arsed?

    No hard and fast rule but normally from experience and knowing if the other party has an 'out' as far as criminality goes.

    Most people that rip off, owe money etc are pretty crafty or have crafty mates who tell them what to say so the matter is civil instead criminal.

    So then it's a long drawn out saga to get money out of them.

    Sometimes we'll point out to the person complaining (depending on the amount owing) that if we COULD get the matter to court they would be waiting even longer to get the money - after all if the guy 'owes' a few hundred dollars (and gets fined $300+$130 costs which would be better off going to the complainant) he is certainly going to drip-feed any reparation ordered. (if they ever pay it)

    I always smile when speaking to the police. Never had any hassles with them, so I never have had to talk to them. Maybe its the smile? Sames goes for customs, immigration, etc. Smile, say nothing other than exactly what is asked and move along.
    Ride, eat, sleep, repeat!

    I rounded up a couple of hard arse mates, tracked the dickhead down who ripped me off (that's a whole different story involving blocking a car yard entrance and making a violent scene inside the showroom) then we used threats and intimidation to get justice - it worked

    Can't I judge if the officer is going to listen to truth and make a judgement on that? I think the problem most people have with talking to the law is that people who are lied to constantly tend to get finely tuned bullshit metres and will detect your crap.
    My advise is either talk or don't its up to you but whatever you do don't talk crap - they will know and eventually you will contradict other crap you have said.
    It sounds good - to fair minded people but I do find the police that I know personally, and work closely with thru my work, can be a bit desensitised to some peoples reality, and their constant exposure to the negative aspects of society renders them fairly cynical. For that reason I would hesitate to rely on a cops intuition or judgement - and I like cops


    There are two very clear factions with in the Police themselves – the ones that are hard line and cynical, and those who think they can still make a difference and turn people around.
