An Officer's life... - HondaClub.com

**EyesofFreedom** · 11-18-2007, 08:02 PM

I am posting this because a very near and dear friend of mine lost her fiance...a deputy...at Thanksgiving last year.

R.I.P Dennis...I wish I would have taken the time to get to know you!!!!!!!!!!!!

You wonder why he pulled you over and gave you a ticket for speeding

He just worked an accident were people died because they were going too fast
_________________________

You wonder why that cop was so mean

He just got done working a case where a drunk driver killed a kid
____________________________________________

You work for 8 hours

He works for up to 18 hours
_________________________

You drink hot coffee to stay awake.

The cold rain in the middle of the night keeps him awake.
__________________________

You complain of a "headache", and call in sick.

He goes into work still hurt and sore from the guy he had to fight the night before
__________________________

You drink your coffee on your way to the mall.

He spills his as he runs code to a traffic crash with kids trapped inside
__________________________

You make sure you're cell phone is in your pocket before you leave the house.

He makes sure his guns are clean and fully loaded and his vest is tight
__________________________

You talk trash about your "buddies" that aren't with you.

He watches his buddy get shot at, and wounded in front of him.
__________________________

You walk down the beach, staring at all the pretty girls.

He walks down the highway looking for body parts from a traffic crash
_________________________

You complain about how hot it is.

He wears fifty pounds of gear and a bullet proof vest in the middle of July and still runs around chasing crack heads
__________________________

You go out to lunch, and complain because the restaurant got your order wrong.

He runs out before he gets his food to respond to an armed robbery.
__________________________

You get out of bed in the morning and take your time getting ready.

He gets called out of bed at 2 am after working 12 hours and has to be into work asap for a homicide
__________________________

You go to the mall and get your hair redone.

He holds the hair of some college girl while shes puking in the back of his patrol car
__________________________

You're angry because your class ran 5 minutes over.

His shift ended 4 hours ago and theres no end in sight
__________________________

You call your girlfriend and set a date for tonight.

He can't make any plans because on his off days he still gets called back into work
__________________________

You yell and scream at the squad car that just past you because they slowed you down.

He's in the driver seat of the squad car, going to cut somebody out of their car only to find out that their dead when he gets there.
__________________________

You roll your eyes when a baby cries in public

He picks up a dead child in his arms and prays that it was crying
__________________________

You criticize your police dept and say they're never there quick enough.

He blasts the siren while the person in front of him refuses to move while talking on their cell phone and doing their makeup.
__________________________

You hear the jokes about fallen officers and say they should have known better.

He is a hero and runs into situations when everyone else is running away in order to make sure no one else gets hurt and loses his life doing it

__________________________

You are asked to go to the store by your parents. You don't.

He would take a bullet for his buddy without question
__________________________

You sit there and judge him, saying that its a waste of money to have them around.

Yet as soon as you need help he is there
___________________________
If you support your local police officers, repost this with "An Officer's life"

If you don't support your police officers, well, then don't repost, it's not like you care any way...

also a shout out to the men and women of the Fire Departments , EMS and Dispatchers as well, without all these divisions, public safety wouldn't be available!!!!

Good job, i knew an officers life was hard, but your examples just added a whole new level to the post, from sorry for the officer to wow an officers life is very tough.
