six weeks = 42 days
plus 138 sick days = 180 days off total!

Only 365 days in a year so yeah thats around half a year that they have to work.

i dunno about you guys..

But at what price would you like to put on yourself for being shot in the line of duty.

People whinge like bitches but simply.. if you were a cop.. at what point would you put a price on your own life?

For fuck sake!!!!

This shit keeps getting bounced around the forum over and over again.

YES....... Our justice system is fucked, if we had decent magistrates, our job would be a whole lot easier except, "Sorry Mrs Pensioner, I know this 11 year old broke into your house, stole all your money, assaulted you giving you a busted hip, but he is just misunderstood. As a result, I will refer him to a Juvenile Justice Team where he can front a panel of his piers and discuss what has happened. BULL SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for working half the year, what drugs you on???? We get 6 weeks a year which works out to be really the 4 weeks everyone else gets plus the 2 weeks of combined public holidays. So really, we get the same as you. As for the sick days:
1) You DO have to be sick.
2) You do have to provide a medical note EVERY time you are sick.

It's just not a matter of< "Ahh, I can't be arsed today, I'll just ring the boss and pull a sicky."

As for the job, yeah most wouldn't have a clue what we do. Joe public is asleep at 3am when we are out jumping fences after some non-reflective who just finished stealing 2 cars, getting into a pursuit and then assaulting 3 coppers before getting sprayed and tazered!

We deal with drop kicks all the time, in the past 48 hours, I have wrestled 5 people and arrested them, borderline popped my shoulder out, pulled my glock on a idiot with scissors and my partner popped her knee which she already had one knee recon already. To whoever thinks they can do it better, STEP UP!!!!!

"Some", "Most", "Majority" of the "Cops", "Stations" don't do fuck all.

Just do a survey in Bentley and you'll know why. Break Ins in Bentley is like an everyday event. "Very Normal" as my friend puts it. (There may be other areas, but its countless to list them.)

Do they deserve higher pay ? IMO, they should be glad I'm not incharge because I would have severely reduce it.

After all like most people said. You signed the contract, you know how much it pays, so don't complain about it. If the police are complaining about fucking pay rise just because a few of them got beat up pretty badly, should the Australian Army demand a pay rise considering how many Mothers send their Sons into Iraq and receive them back in Body Bags ?

do a skid! sik//

Burglaries happen in nearly every suburb, EVERY NIGHT, that is a fact. As for you being in charge and giving a reduced wage, well that just shows how much of no clue what so ever you really have.

I know several teachers and most of this starts in our schools. Kids
these days don't know respect, dont learn boundaries and certainly
are not held accountable for their actions. With all the red tape in
our schools for dicipline, it is easier for teachers to turn a blind eye,
as such idiot kids get away with all sorts of crap, then go into the
community and carry on like idiots. They simply move into bigger
and worse misbehaviour ending up being dealt with by the boys
in blue. Fix the schools and make the justice system give people what
they deserve. Rant finished...

I will now put on my flame suit ready for the younger forum members...

Hahahaha mate, no doubt about it....that has to be the best wording i have seen. Fucking classic.
With you all the way dude, you guys do it damn tough and really dont get what pay you all deserve.
People get too caught up in the "fucking cop gave me a yellow for my zorst" bullshit and think all cops are muppets. End of the day, there are over 2million people in perth and a small, way outnumbered police force to keep them all in line.
Give em the $$
