So outline for me the action plan and what you think will and should happen (will and should might not be the same). Right now, police are retiring in record numbers or quitting. If similar pressure was put in pharmacy, I'd leave the field tomorrow. I'm not a quitter but what's reasonable? We discussed it here before. Most of us would only work as a pharmacist for certain compensation. Police have the same criteria. CVS determined that for me to go into nursing homes is worth $4 more per hour. Supply. Demand.
You think only bad cops are leaving? Good or bad they will need to be replaced. Are you ready to join the law enforcement branch? Guess what, in our society, there is a cost attached to everything. Are you ready to double their salaries to get a 5-10% improvement in enforcement practice? Do you really think 40 hours of re-education or training is going to fix this problem?
I'm all for change but every action will have a reaction. Hopefully there are correct actions in place.
Agree PP slides training won't help. Compensation discrepancy doesn't entitle someone to take innocent people life. So to suggest let pay cost be the price paid with innocent people life, that doesn't add up.
There is a big push for diversity in medicine, why can't be same in law enforcement?
