- Why did you become a police officer? Learn how to mentally survive: amzn.to/3h2HzJD
Why? Why?! Why??!! Especially nowadays with the few bad cops are really making the good cops look bad too! Why did you become a police officer when a majority of the media paints a broad stroke trying to make it seem like all cops are bad?
It's because of your why that you are either getting in, or staying in! Your reasons!
Have you ever listened to Rachel Hollis, Simon Sinek, or Eric Thomas? If you have not, check the links below. Incredible people of great influence and they hit home the point about WHY.
Your why is what carries you through the tough times. Your why is what will get you started or what will help you to stick with it as a career (if you so desire).
Sometimes police officers will forget their "why" (myself included) and it can lead to being disgruntled with the career, thus in turn, the mental health problems start.
So, I ask you again, WHY? If you are in it for the right reasons, the right "why", then never forget it. Also, when someone asks you, "Why did you become a police officer?" You can say your reason and be proud of it.

To be honest - that’s a really helpful kick for all of us , especially who is trying to decide - to joint law enforcement or do some office job. To that’s a deep thought, and gave me a right idea before my future interview. Thank you a lot and keep sharing your ideas
Thank you for mentioning that. Best wishes on the future interview!
Rats
How’d the interview go are you a cop now?
I want to become a law enforcement officer because I want to give back to my community. I want to be the change that I want to see in the world. I want to be the reason that someone changes their perception of law enforcement. I want to be the reason that someone tells their kids and family that law enforcement is not made of bad people. I want to be the person that people can confide in.
Yeah bullshit!
@@antilaw9911 what do you think my reason for wanting to be a cop is, since you’re me
When you interview, try to have real specific reasons why you want to be a cop. The interviewers have heard the "I want give back and serve my community and help people" a million times. Find something that makes you stand out
@@adonaimorton6782 are you an interviewer? If so, what makes people stand out?
@@oriigiinbrock I am a police officer, volunteer firefighter and former 911 Dispatcher for my police department. Ive gone through several interviews with high ranking public safety members.
Understand this, they already know that you want to help people. You're applying to be a cop. They want to know the "why" of the reason you want to help people.. Think deep down. Why do you really want to be a police officer. List at least a few specific reasons why and what it means to you. That is what impresses a chief, lieutenant or captain. When I did my police interview I didn't even bring up the fact that I wanted to help people. They already knew I was a firefighter so saying "I want to protect and serve my community" seemed pointless to say.
Also research the department extensively beforehand. They may ask what you already know about them it's it's extremely impressive when your able to answer questions about the department or explain the mission statement to them
Thank you sir, you have helped me found my reason why.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing that!
I want to join a law enforcement officer I want too help people on their worst days I want to bring the evil off the streets and I want to make a change for people and help them I want to change our justice system for the better
There will be a lot out of your control but there will be a ton within your control too and you can make an impact (in many ways).
This was my dream job when i was a kid thats crazy how u put it big up to you !!!
I unfortunately forgot the reason several years into it, because I got wrapped up in negativity. So I speak based on lessons learned
Cuz you got picked on
I’m not 100% sure yet, but I do have a why. Though my question is: does choosing to become an officer mean that you’d have to give up on your other passions because of your why?
Thanks for commenting!
All depends really on what those other passions are and if you can work them around a full time job. I had other stuff I pursued while still working, and it all boiled down to managing time and distractions
@@The10CodeMindset so basically, it's all about priorities?
As they say, people always make time for what their priorities are.
Shoulda been a doctor with that hand writing 😂
🤣🤣🤣
I want to join law enforcement because justice is a value that resonates with me.
Making sure that a bad person gets punished or saving people from dangerous situations is as meaningful as a way to live can be.
I've always had an easy life thanks to my parents who worked hard their whole lives, but they did raise me to be honest, kind, polite and they made sure that I value work ethic, which is why I started working at the age of 14. I feel like becoming a police officer would be a way to feel worthy of the life that I got to live so far and changing other people's lives for the best would prove it.
Obviously, earning more than just a few bucks or wearing cool uniforms, driving a police car, having a gun, a taser and a badge are all things that I also find appealing. I think anyone who denies that is full of crap. I don't see why there should be any shame in admitting it. Police officers are impressive, but I do know that all of that equipment is only there because they might need it.
I have no delusions, I know that the job is demanding physically, mentally and that even tho empathy is important, it's also important to not get involved emotionally. I've been fortunate enough to have a few years of experience working in kitchens. Now, obviously, the stakes are not the same at all, but what I mean to say is that I'm no stranger to being uncomfortable and having to battle exhaustion and stress, being yelled at by people, the 12 hours shifts, the lack of social life, etc.
Do you think those are valid reasons to want to become a police officer ?
If you feel called because of what you said in the first sentence, wanting to save people from dangerous situations, then yes, there's your why. Kind and polite will go a long way too, even when shown to someone who you are placing under arrest. Best wishes to you.
I've had many bad experiences with police officers they always criminalized me and were very rude when I didn't do anything at all I'm not sure if that's how they're supposed to be but I feel like they're all so bad and abuse their authority from my experiences I want to be one to show the world that there can be good police officers and I can empathize with people who are like me there's no reason 6 police officers need to show up to a house and then kick out a 15 year old boy who just wanted to be understood by his parent then make him feel criminalized and not even hear him out I really hope when I'm a police I don't make people feel as I did that day and instead bring them comfort
I wish you nothing but the best as you pursue your goal to becoming a police officer. Empathy goes a very long way in the profession when interacting with the public. 👍👍
Hey thanks for this ❤
I'm grateful you liked it!
I think I have a new faveourite person.
Or they are insane? What type of self-righteous Narcissist do you have to be to think people want you personally to protect them?
If I’m understanding you correctly, then I would say there are certainly people who handle things on their own (such as a couple working things out rather than calling police), but as long as there are people calling 911 for help, people will sign up to be ones to respond/police officers will be there. 👍 Hope that answered your question.
@@The10CodeMindset i appreciate your respectful replies. But the reason we have to rely on the police all the time, is because we cant rely on ourselves, or a trusted friend to when our lives are being threatened by someone, because wuth the way the system is, theres a good chance youll be locked up for defending yourself. So yeah we kinda have rely on the Cops. Think about it man.
@@The10CodeMindset just because police will always be there, doesn't mean law enforcement isnt saturated with Narcissists. We need to screen for mental conditions. But that wont hapoen, well not without us fighting for it,. because.the city managers , mayor's and the elites like their cops nice and tyrannical. Because they bring in the money, and make the cities have the appearance of looking good, by tormenting homeless, drug addicts, and anyone who makes their town look bad. I bet you, that you ticketed or locked up people for victimless crimes. And immortal laws, like drug possession. I would quit before i did that.
Drug laws definitely need to change, that’s my opinion.
I bet if you and I were face to face we would have a great conversation not argument.
Have you ever considered going on a ride along?
@@privateprivate1865 you said it, brother
Job is a piece of cake and great money for abusing people.
So you can be part of the biggest gang in the world.
Do you mean that in the sense of calling police a good gang or a criminal gang?
@@The10CodeMindset I can't name a good gang, can you?
Thanks for replying. I’m picking up what you’re throwing down. Can’t say I agree with the comparison.
You're welcome. If we look at the stats for deaths of citizens at the hands of the police, corruption, murder and rape, one would have to be considered blinded by the blue light to not make the comparison.
I don’t agree with the comparison but may I ask what you believe could be a solution to preventing the corruption, unjustified uses of force, etc… (when it does occur)
