That makes it sound like a cool job actually.

Like a red carpet for people that actually matter to society.

Oh yes, in my state behavioral health rolls out every red carpet for police we possibly can

Police have their own dedicated phone line at most public BH Hospitals. They have their own entrance with always no wait, unless it’s behind another cop. They have priority above all other callers to BH hotlines

And we have to attend mandatory trainings by high ranking police admin staff talking about police protocols and mindsets. And right at the start of every training, the police chief or captain or whoever is saying “we have one prevailing thought, other than paranoia, whenever we arrive at any scene. And that is HOW CAN I LEAVE HERE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE”

He says that thought needs to take priority over all others than safety, because of how busy we are. We can’t be tied on up these calls, we have other important calls waiting. And of course the other mindset that everyone has heard before is “if we have to come back to a scene we’ve been, it’s going to go badly for anyone involved we already warned” aka arrests will be implied

same

the shit a cop sees over their entire career fucks up the majority of them i would safely say, so going out of your way to mainline the collective fucked up shit these professions witness across the globe has to be off the charts terrible for your mental well being.

doubly so for war footage

you aren't jesus, there is zero evolutionary advantage to take on the pain or guilt of 8 billion people and it leads to angry freak outs like that woman was having or you go the other way and become nihilistic as fuck like George Carlin at the end.

Ya, I kinda glossed over it but in the police trainings the instructor is saying that every police officer is in a constant state of paranoia

He didn’t go into details, but I’m assuming the thought process tends to go:

I could die at any moment
I could die at any moment
Etc

And they aren’t taught to be this way. I’m assuming it happens after a never ending series of close calls. And there’s no way that’s a healthy way to go through every work day. Although obv there are some more dangerous professions, I was surprised to learn logging is actually worse lol

I never carry that thought with me in my job, I guess I have been blessed that have anticipated or avoided potential close call situations but I get info and prep time ahead of time police don’t

personal close calls and just the reality of the fucked up situations they walk up on not related to their personal safety, shit like the very real fact a DUI driver is more likely to survive in a fatal wreck than their victims due to the effects of alcohol on muscle relaxation and delayed reaction time so they don't tense up prior to impact

it's a fascinating phenomenon, some double down on faith and can cope with notion that his grand plan is like a cohen brothers movie and others self destruct at their core and become criminals themselves via domestic violence and police brutality or drug use

there's a real problem with cops using fent apparently, and like duh, they use drugs for the same reason others do.
