    This is not meant in any negative way. Police work is actually fairly sedentary stuff I mean you spend the majority of your day sitting either in a car or at a desk if you dont take the time to work out or have a raging metabolism you are going to put on weight.

    Nope. I'm quite secure in myself. As a matter of fact, I'm so secure that I don't even get butt hurt over stuff people post on the Internet.

    while i can see your point , i still feel that cretin jobs like , LEO ,Military, Fire Fighters and paramedics should not have people that are out of shape . from the lowest person to the top person

    This is true... I work with this little Asian guy... He's in stupid good shape.. The bastard can eat anything he wants and never put on weight... One night he came back from McDonalds with a LARGE DOUBLE Quarter Pounder meal... When I went to lunch an hour later... He asked me to bring him back another one....

    I hate him for that...

    That's why there's physical tests in place during the hiring process...

    For Adams County there's a course you have to run..

    200 foot sprint, 6' wall, 5' long jump, 3' high tunnel crawl, Serpentine through some cones, go through a window 3' off the ground, 4' chain link fence, two 3' wood fences, drag a 175 pound dummy 20' up a slight hill.

    You have 1 minute 57 seconds to do it... I do it in the 1:15 to 1:23 range. 1:15 was my best, 1:23 my worst.

    The course record is 57 seconds.

    So, to your point, I'm "out of shape" and I can pass it with plenty of time to spare. But I also work my ass off to be able to do it.

    They RETEST a lot... But current employees dont need to meet the standard... They just need to do it.

    Trust me, there's more than a few people working here that bother me with their weight... And I'm not small..
