Negative Positive
Title: LAPD
Review: I have been a police officer in Northern California for 15 years. I started out young and idealistic. Throughout my career I have gone through different stages and I have seen other officers go through these stages. I was given this book by a coworker and I read it on my weekend off. I totally saw myself in this book and others I work with and others who are now gone. The one chapter hitting the wall was the most interesting because that period was the most difficult for me in my career and like in the book I sought outside resources to save myself, mainly my family, promotion and finishing my college education. If I had stayed in that rut of hitting the wall I most likely would have quit the job all together because i was burned out.I encourage anyone who really wants to understand the job and what it can do over a period of time to read this book and those others can read it to think what is going on in the mind of that officer as you see him pulling someone over in the middle of the nite.
Is the review positive or negative?
