Did you apply David?, Sounds like you are experienced
Apply within David R. And see what great the force provides for our wonderful community. If you think the officers do nothing all day that must mean you’re a good boy.
Easy money,sleep all night long and get paid
I urge you pro-ECPD commenters to read past ECdotOrg articles, for instance, regarding Mayor Court’s speed trap warnings. I have yet to see one police car posted anywhere in this fabulous borough. As a matter of fact, I’ve witnessed cars speeding through Ellwood neighborhoods at all hours, with children playing nearby. The police must be busy prosecuting all the home break-ins lately. Oh wait, they haven’t addressed these crimes either. Tell me again how the “great” police “provide” for this town. They’re good for standing around at school events, I’ll give them that.
I digress..
As far as applying for the patrolman position; no thanks. I don’t intend on living in this “stuck in the past” area for much longer. I’ll leave it to you simple folks, who seem to have no desire for any new ideas or experiences. Enjoy your fish Fridays, neighborhood speeding and boot licking.
