I Hate My Job! When you have an "I Hate My Job" day, try this: On your way home from work, stop at your pharmacy and go to the thermometer section and purchase a rectal thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson. Be very sure you get this brand. When you get home, lock your doors, draw the curtains and disconnect the phone so you will not be disturbed. Change into very comfortable clothing and sit in your favorite chair. Open the package and remove the thermometer. Now, carefully place it on a table or a surface so that it will not become chipped or broken. Now the fun part begins... Take out the literature from the box and read it carefully. You will notice that in small print there is a statement: "Every Rectal Thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson is personally tested and then sanitized". Now, close your eyes and repeat out loud five times, "I am so glad I do not work in the thermometer quality control department at Johnson & Johnson" Have a nice day and remember... THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE WITH A JOB THAT IS MORE OF A PAIN IN THE BEHIND THAN YOURS! LOL!!!!

GREAT NEWS!

Looks very nice!

I am in favor of allowing legitimate media to cross the yellow tape provided it will not interfere with a an active crime scene or safety issues on a fire scene. Yes, just like Firefighters and Police Officer the Press has a job to do. I agree! Does a "Press Pass" allow you to just cross the line? Just curious, I don't know. I hear what you are saying BFD2553 and you have a good point. From what I have observed most members of the media establish a relationship with local police and fire and more often than not crossing the yellow tape is not a problem which I am sure you have experienced. BFD2553, I for one like it when you take my photo! LOL! I have a question.... Let's say Police Sgt, Police Officer, Fire Captain, or Fire Chief allow a member of the press to cross the yellow tape, or if no tape is up just allow them to get too close and the member of the press gets injured who is responsible? On the flip side of things I also can understand why the Police or Fire would want and would need to keep EVERYONE including Press away from a scene. SAFETY FIRST!

MAY HE REST IN PEACE! Heartfelt thoughts go out to his family, friends, co-workers at Mount Vernon Police Department and the Westchester County PD Police Officers involved. I can't imagine the pain everyone is going thru right now. GOD BLESS!

CONGRATS!

I worked Security at Pace University for a short time. I remember Ralph Robinson very well when he first started at Pace University. Ralph was such a nice guy, very friendly, and always had your back. He will be missed. God bless his family. REST IN PEACE BROTHER!
