You know what, if everyone quit because the pay was reduced to minimum wage,
every vacancy would be filled in days or maybe even hours.

Volunteer fire departments exist.

Volunteer police do too. They call them Auxiliary Police.

I'll bet Rotterdam would have a waiting list of volunteers to train for the minimum wage jobs.

Would the police work quality be less?

That's a good point for debate.





ho but there is all the special training and the danger

Firemen don't have training and danger?

sick humor suggests a triangle in rotterdam - on its side

the bike not the triangle

but the video is correct - there is just too much work for the police force and they dont get paid enough, now and in the future to look for a bike

did the bike cost over $250 ????  the value is important as over $250 makes the crime a felony

They would also stay if their pay was cut in half. They can't lose the money already in their pensions.

Some punk stole my IPOD out of my car about 2 weeks ago...bet they were disappointed when they looked at the playlist  

My car was most likely unlocked as my son uses it and he doesn't always lock it.
I normally remove it to charge it, but this time the audio cord with is gone too and I never take that out.

We have many friends/family who live in rottENdam.....and there are many break-ins.....but ya never read or hear about them.

And again...............these crimes should be made public so the public can protect themselve and help law enforcement if they notice any suspicious activity.

When I was a kid, nobody locked their cars or their houses.

We never lock my car doors. Cause they will only break a car window that will cost big bucks.
But we also don't keep ANYTHING in our cars.............we are boring!
