Yet his stack of "Thanks for your interest, we are full, try next year" letters continues to grow.
He does get letters from colleges across Indiana begging him to apply. He has the grades and knows I will pay his way and still has no interest in it.
Must be some disconnect somewhere.
I am going to follow-up on this comment and say that this is crap. My son is a senior in HS and is excited to get into an apprenticeship. He goes to these testing and hiring events at the unions and there are hundreds of people. Seems the need is driven by poor hiring practices.
There is no...
I am all for creating opportunities for ways to get kids off the couch and computer and outdoors engaging in physical activity, team building, developing character, and learning life lessons they can take with them forever.
My kids have learned more about life (positive AND negative) playing...
Think of a charter like a franchise in other sports. It creates artificial scarcity that creates a value.
I think one thing to consider, often when a race team closes, their assets are simply auctioned off for pennies. A team could spend millions and recover very little of that investment. A...
They are actually offering $300 on certified pre-owned. It would cost you $150 out of pocket to get a refurbished phone with a brand new battery and a 1 year Samsung warranty.

Also, the day pension pools are fair game for lawsuit settlements, is the day retirement plans switch from defined-benefit to defined-contribution. It is not some genius idea. It will never happen.

I retired from law enforcement last year, and I think it is time to start letting go of some of my kit.
Vest: L/XL Shellback Tactical Banshee (believe Gen 1) with cummerbund and upgraded shoulder pads. Also has the zipper kangaroo pouch for the front, and a Condor triple AR/pistol magazine...
I am not going to speak to how other departments operate beyond this, I KNOW I was incredibly lucky with department support. I know other officers face pressures daily that I never faced. If you told me that X Department demanded their officers produce Y results as a "performance standard", I...
Properly vetted and trained law enforcement, with effective leadership in quality organizations, deserve maximum discretion under the law when it comes to enforcement. When there is a breakdown in that, your going to have issues.
When you have a poor outcome in a situation, a closer look is...
The think is, it's NOT theft. YOU think it is theft, several people here think it is theft, and there is a lawsuit claiming it amounts to such. Theft has a specific definition under the law, and this is not it.
The officer could have hid the $40k and walked out and pretended it never happened...
It is not going to cost careers because this stuff is in established law. You need to start holding your elected officials accountable if you want action on this stuff. They don't need to prove a crime is committed. This is a civil action and civil rules apply. They just need a preponderance of...
