First arrest by myself was a small traffic warrant way out in the county with no backup. I was so scared lol. The dude realized I was new, and he had been around the block before, so he was cool about it and kinda helped me along with the process. First day on FTO? Some trailer park lady got shot in the neck, so that was cool, I guess. First day of my three year break in service? Best day ever.
Edit: you’re going to fuck stuff up, it’s inevitable. Don’t worry about it and just learn from it. I made a traffic stop one night and ran the plate and license through my computer on my own. I completely missed the fact that the car was stolen. Just own your fuck ups and don’t do them again!
