Calling All Potential Officers

Seriously - volunteers to call to remind them of a test they signed up for:


An e-mailer tells us that 2,800 people signed up for the test - and nearly 800 submitted incomplete applications, so they won't be taking the test at all.

Meanwhile, the Department held an FTO test this past weekend, and the reports were less than stellar:
  • That said, whoever is responsible for drafting the FTO test this morning should never be given said responsibility again. To say I was embarrassed by what was presented to me is an understatement. Frankly, I found the lack of proper English offensive. Sentence structure, grammar, subject/verb agreement, even spelling, were obviously beyond the grasp of the author.

    I'll assume there was no proofreading involved, unless it involved the author's children (assuming they are in grade school). I won't even bother getting into the content of the questions, other than a possible suggestion, such as having an officer who's worked the street sometime in the last 10 years point out which issues are no longer relevant.
    Absolute farce, and disgrace.
No doubt, drafted, put together and approved by some "merit" picks.
