This is to Rookies with 5 years or less.

You are working for the most corrupt Dept East of the Mississippi.
Realize you are getting paid Peanuts,Mayor does not like you or support you,Chief and Staff the same they only looking out for each other and pulling their own scams working less than 40 hours a week since they are on salaries and no is watching them. The community is your Enemy.

Don’t discharge your weapon the Chief and Staff will Monday morning Quarterback you and terminate you not protect you.

Understand we are NOT A Family like you were brainwashed in the academy, all that is Smoke and Mirrors.

We now have the Worse/weak FOP in the History of MPD,2 clowns that sold you a porterhouse steak with gravy and mashed potatoes while running for the position. In return you are now getting Wiinn Dixie Sausage since both Bozo’s are Clueless and being stepped on by the Chief and his Staff. These Reyes ain’t fighting anything,they just don’t know how or why.

Body cams are here to cause Damage, not to protect you. A technical tool to get Officer arrested or Fired. Not cause staff cares for your safety.

GPS are designed for micromanaging, not for your SAFETY. How come the Chief and the cronies under Down have GPS on their Vehicles since is all about SAFETY. BS is all about another tool to administratively get you FIRED. Believe me no one here cares about your Safety or your family. You will always be another number,NEXT. How Manny Morales don’t have GPS on his vehicle I do care about His Safety.

MPD has been destroyed from what it used to be a Bad As* agency to work for.

Realize your OT is not Pensiable,you are making 10.00 dollars less an hour than the County,Beach,Gables. You are always being threaten with discipline and/or termination.

You won’t be able to retire with a decent pension unless you do 30 or 35 years under the above harsh conditions.

MPD has always been Understaffed,Overworked,Underpaid. You Can’t even take a 12 without Asking permission from dispatcher but The Chief and Staff wants you to believe WE are a Big Blue Family. No other profession requires permission for a 12. Only at MPD.

You are young and smart do your homework and Jump ship.
The best advice I can give you don’t Make the mistake I made by staying.

Do your research and make an intelligent decision.

Be Safe....
