Once again, the Department is asking for "merit" packages from those interested (or connected enough) for Sergeant. The paperwork is due 19 December if we have the correct info.
Last week, the "merit" packages for Detective were due. And if past practice is followed, the Department will make a load of Detectives, then a month of two later, make a bunch of Sergeants, many of which will just have completed Detective training, meaning the D-Unit will be short and people on the list will have burned up a spot that could have gone to someone committed to spending some actual career time in the Areas.
Of course, a certain number of those blessed to have spent all of eight weeks in the D-Unit will now be deemed qualified to be supervisors in the Area and drive the abysmal clearance rate down another few percentage points.
