thank you my friend. its the old "1k monkey, 1k typewriters", if i type enough garbage eventually some of them will be gems.
cheers, beers! (sorry, couldnt resist)
YEahhhhh Windsorrr, I don't know if anything ever happened due to that picture. Im fairly sure nobody got in trouble, and personally, I don't care if a cop played solitaire on the job. In fact, nobody on this site should, you're probably at work right now, not doing what your supposed to be doing.
Yeah exactly. I can only laugh. I'm at work right now and I can never seem to tear my eyes away from the Internet (Chive specifically) for more than 10 minutes to do actual work.
yeah, suing people is pretty lame. especially over a car accident. just collect your insurance cash and be done with it, man. don't worry about all the money you could make hiring a slimy lawyer.
suing a cop for looking at his facebook page while driving wouldn't be pretty lame. it would be pretty valid considering that in the city it happened in you can't be on your phone while driving. so i'm just supposed to let it go and let it happen again? i don't think so, pretty sure i'd sue the city
That's Merica for ya. You're probably sitting at home (parent's basement) on 'disability' because your 'back hurts' from when you 'slipped' on some grease by the french fry cooker.
actually i' m sitting at work. i love how people assume that just because they are sitting in their parents basement and complaining about life that everyone is doing the same thing. but honestly i probably would have just complained to the department about it and taken the insurance money.
How do you know what he was doing if you were driving? All city money comes from the tax payers who would already been paying for any damages caused to your private property by an on duty officer. I must agree with so sue me, words cannot describe how much you suck.
Actually it's New Haven, CT. And they aren't sitting there doing "jack shit". The city, and many other places in CT implemented a policy of "omnipresence" which involves posting police throughout the city which is why the end lights of the lightbar are on steady burn. The idea is to make police visible everywhere, so that criminals will be more likely to be deterred from committing a crime than with a regular roving patrol. Studies have shown it is far more effective at reducing the crime rate and reducing response times, and it increases the public interaction with police helping with community oriented activities, especially in summer. And before you go ripping these guys apart for playing solitaire, how many of you look at facebook, check personal email, buy things from amazon, or do anything less than 100% of your job description all day every day even when forced into overtime for 8 hours? Now how many of you have a high likelihood of never coming home when you leave for work? That's what I thought.
I can see the news headline later tonight "NYPD officers under investigation after a blog site posts officers playing solitaire in their tax paid police cruisers" LMAO! WINNING!
Not everyone can dick around on their computers and post pics on a website for a living. Most people get hour lunches, and a couple fifteen minute breaks a day. Sometimes cops don't even get breaks, so let them play solitaire.
Sorry, but NY cops are the highest paid in the country… and they can retire after only 20 years… I get it…their job is hard. But if they are in their patrol car, they are probably on-duty.
I guess we should just be thankful they aren't out busting balls or writing tickets…
I was married to a cop and even he admits to playin some solitare on the job.. but to be fair, it's true they don't get breaks like most.. they typically work 12 hour shifts & only get 30 minutes for lunch but get called out quite often during then.. Ah well.. ExH is a Chiver too.. think he'll care I dimed him out? Oops!!

i am disappointed by these cops
they should be on the chive
Sounds like John should have a free t-shirt bounty for the first picture submitted of that.
A free t-shirt? If someone actually catches a cop surfing the Chive on duty that photo is worth a hell of a lot more then that!
well, at least they're not sending each other farmville stuff…
in the lonely cold nights of beat, the only company a man can get are hearts, club, spades and diamonds
beermonkey, I feel that though your comments are rarely spectacular, they are always solid. Your consistency is impressive.

Well said.
at least its international
they are humans just like us, unfortunately they have no internet in their vehicles, otherwise Chive on.
Some of them do. My friend's dating a cop at the Univ. of MD and he's pretty much always on Facebook during his shift.
