This FTO is a 25 year veteran of the force and is a “legend” in the department due to his involvement in a high profile arrest. One day on patrol the FTO invites you to lunch. You accept his invitation and after lunch pull your wallet out to pay. The FTO stops you and says “No need…it’s on the house. This is one of the reasons this restaurant is my favorite.” What do you do?
Ironically, I have been placed in a similar position this past summer as an intern. The situation included me and another intern along with a Community Policing officer at a restaurant to get lunch. After we were done eating, the officer stated

Even though it is not illegal, professional discretion need be applied when it comes to accepting any gifts from public.

    The movie Training Day starring Denzel Washington,proved to show many interesting outlooks of managing activities and skills that I have never even came close to noticing before. Alonzo Harris played by Denzel in the movie expressed many forms of management throughout this movie. He displayed different basic management functions, fundamental management skills, parts of the evolution of management, and also some other key management terms. Jake Hoyt, who Alonzo is supposed to give in an evaluation on, also shows many different forms of management throughout this movie. The first thing I noticed during this movie was the basic management functions that Alonzo was planning throughout the whole movie to achieve a certain goal.…

    On the day of my ride-along while in the waiting room I met another person who was on a ride-along for class credit as well. After newly hour of waiting I finally met my officer. The officer that was chosen to allow me to ride-along was a female officer. Following her introduction we headed out to the Charger. I was giving a walkie-talkie with an earpiece so that I could listen to the communication from the dispatch. We entered the vehicle, buckled up and started on our way. In the cruiser the officer had logged into her laptop to check her files and looked at any updates on her calls. I was informed that my experience would vary just as much as the calls that the officers went out on from day to day. Some of my responsibilities were that I had to be self-sufficient, be able to think ahead, have the ability to know where I was and most importantly enjoy myself.…

    Last summer, I was on my way to work, in my lifeguard uniform travelling on a back street with a 25 mph speed limit when I came up behind a vehicle going about 15 mph. After a block or so I adjusted my car to see if there was traffic or pedestrians holding him up. There were none. The vehicle then pulled over and I slowed down even more and then assumed he was letting me pass so I passed and it was an undercover officer who then pulled me over. I was rudely greeted by the officer saying, “I don’t care how late I make you for your job; and I don’t care if you are a guard.”…

    In The Club Sandwich, the young officer vows that he will uphold the ethics he learned from the academy. I feel that if he made this vow he should keep it, in the code of ethics it states” I recognize the badge of my office as a symbol of public faith, and I accept it as a public trust to be held so long as I am true to the ethics of the police service.” In witch also in Article 9 of Canons of police ethics it states “He shall guard against placing himself in a position which any person can reasonably assume that special consideration is being given. Thus, Her should be firm in reusing gifts, favors, or gratuities, large or small, that can, in the public mind, be interpreted as capable if influencing his/her judgment in the discharge of his/her duties.”…
