I don’t think you could even state how the ideal cop scores in the various areas of a psychological test. I can, and I can assure you that I score reasonably close to it in most areas - a little high in the “openness” and “agreeableness”, and to a lesser extent, the “neuroticism” categories, but otherwise close enough.

As you suspect, though, I do know how to fool the tests. I know the psychological requirements of recruits so back-to-front now that I can achieve a perfect score for a cop on the sample tests that I’ve tried. Which is why I know you are just trying to be nasty here. You, on the other hand, I suspect would score way too high on the neuroticism category nowadays. Your experience as a cop seems to have left you very angry and easily stressed. I don’t want to be a cop though. I've seen too many cops retire as very damaged people.

Oh dear o sung wu, top marks for patience.

I have given up bothering with the fairies from the bottom of the garden, be they normal fairies, or Democrats. It is just too boring.

I have decided to do the same with the prattling clowns, their verbosity is just too wearing.

I do however find it interesting that you can tell, from someone's writing style, that they love the sound of their own voice. Until now, I wouldn't have thought that possible.

That's the way, Hasbeen. When you have nothing left, just continue with the insults.

You guys are two peas in a pod, not a brain cell between the two of you.

You know HASBEEN, this pathetic, fractured little soul; A.J.PHILIPS - for someone who claims he's '...at least a good person...' ? It does raise the question concerning the level of his social maturity ? Notwithstanding his arrogance nevertheless, remains breathtaking !

On the positive side, his somewhat sorrowful, even 'teary' retort '...I don't want to be 'sob' a cop though...' ? Reminds me of the querulous, whining little boy who took his bat home ? Indeed if true, it would be most pleasing news for all police academies, I suspect.

Hey guys - this is only an opinion forum afterall.

Lighten up.

Did you hear about the 25 Irish people who drowned?

They were River-Dancing.

And -

What did an idiot invent?

An inflatable dart-board. :-)

Foxy if you can't read an intended insult in this peanuts every word, you are much less perceptive than I have always assumed.

Some people are just not worth the effort.
