To service and protect...
« on: January 21, 2023, 01:19:16 AM »
 In case you're like me, and wondered what the police girl memes were about...

https://www.sportskeeda.com/pop-culture/what-police-girl-meme-maegan-hall-social-media-trend-explained

Girl cop was getting busy with half the department.

The sheer volume of concupisence in the department is perhaps easier to explain or defend than their hiring a cop who looks like she's still driving on a learner's permit, and is probably picked by the other cheerleaders to be at the top of the pyramid.

She's not even particularly attractive. Certainly not worth flushing a career for.

Nah, not particularly attractive, but not altogether unattractive, either.

Maybe she's got skills to make up for it.  An outgoing personality.

You misspelled "concupiscence."

Yeah, it's giving her a badge I don't understand.

I would assume she got the badge first and then started the alleged concupiscent activity.

It's fundamental:

I mean, she looks to me like a petite 15-year-old. Unless you're just trying to fill a quota, why hire her as a police officer?

Then again, I guess it's pretty hard to find cops to hire these days. Or maybe she slept her way into the job, to begin with.

Probably because she applied, passed the academy, and it's not hiring her because she "looks like a petite 15YO" after she passed the academy is borderline illegal and would get a hiring officer in hot water with HR.

Are they required to hire anyone who applies? They can't just say, "we'll keep your application on file. Thanks"?

It take two to tango, in this case it was more of a conga line. I would almost guarantee if one of her playmates wives had not figured it out it would have been going on still. When I live in WA our small community police force of 8 officers was disbanded because the Chief of Police has the touchy feelys toward the female office staff. Too much of a liability for the town, fired them all and contracted with the County Sheriff.

Right.  Thanks for pointing that out

So this is a thing with govt job applicants? They have to provide a reason why they don't want to hire you? They can't just say no, or just ghost you?

My sister is a cop and she’s small and petite. She gets the job done and has done so for almost a decade now. It ain’t the size of the dog in the fight it’s the size of the fight in the dog.

I don't think they have to give a reason why they didn't hire you, but I don't think they can ghost you.

On hiring: it varies. If I have one position and I get a list with several applicants, than I just pick the best applicant and justify that decision. If I announce a position, get an applicant list and don't want to hire any of them, then yes I need to articulate why I think they are all unqualified.

At least with my agency the applicants go through a couple screenings before I get the list, and simply by being on the list that means HR thought they met minimum qualifications. So if I disagree on that, I definitely need to be able to articulate it.

A position that requires specific training (like a police academy) is worse from a hiring officer's standpoint. If they complete the training (academy or course) there is objective evidence that they met the minimum standards for the job. Not hiring someone that is objectively qualified if you have an open position is begging for a lawsuit. Not hiring a qualified protected class is begging to loose that lawsuit.

I don't know for sure about that department, but Law Enforcement in general is understaffed these days, so I would not be surprised if there were semi permanent open positions in many departments. In that situation if she rolled up with a shiny new academy graduation cert and applied for an open position they would pretty much have to hire her, at least on a probationary basis.  And if she banged her training officer.......

FWIW, that's not limited to .gov jobs.  I would bet money that any business big enough to have an HR has similar policies.  They might not tell YOU why you didn't get hired, but there's a memo somewhere in HR detailing the hiring process and why a particular someone, or no one, was picked for a job just in case someone sues.

I can see how that could be a problem.
