Police

and also, I made lots of mistakes-the reality was that those that did very little didn't make many mistakes-if you were as busy as I was as a young pc you made mistakes-it was part and parcel.

I don’t doubt it mate. Sorry didn’t mean to sound like an arse, just thought from your first post that bragging about fucking up a burglary investigation with an old lady wasn’t the best of posts.

All good pal.

No, you’re right-of course prob a poor joke because of how it sounds-I learnt a v valuable lesson that day though-and really as a novice you’ve got to learn from your cock ups..

Eggs and omelettes, if you don't make mistakes you can't learn from them.
 
What
Probably my most embarrassing experience was as a probationer one night shift i was in the office transcribing one of my taped interviews (in those days you did it yourself) so I had headphones on..

Just down the corridor was the snooker room which had a fruit machine and a table tennis table.

At around 3am I heard a loud bang, and I thought, 'blimey, somebody just hit something very hard against something very hard-they must be in a mood.'..and carried on doing my transcript..

About 5am, I went out for a dive before the Inspector shouted up and wanted everyone back in the nick quick smart.

He was fuming-somebody had burgled the nick-climbed up the drainpipe in through the toilet window and then smashed open the fruit machine (turns out it was 3 of them using a sledge hammer) and made off with all the money..

'Bert!! Weren't you in the room next door?'..

'Never heard a thing Sir!'
What Nick was that at?!!
 
That story isn’t as funny as you think it is.

I disagree. I hate criminals too. I’ve been burgled once and had personal possessions robbed too. I can’t be too mad once insurance replaces them.

I’ve lost money in finance and mislaid important records in law.
