Re: Anybody a police officer or work for the police department?
I applied, and made it through all of the junk they make you go through for the pre-interview process. When it came down to the security interview (3 hours of what bad stuff have you ever done poking and prodding) they explained i was unsuitable. The reason being that I play online poker. I know there is no poker in oot, but i assume you're at 2+2 due to poker. They explained that it was totally legal, but they consider it gambling, and if it ever led to a gambling problem i could use my position for extortion. It didnt matter to them how much i won, or for how many hours, or for how much per hour for how long. All that mattered was it was more time spent playing than simply being a casual casino trip here and there.
Most likely most police agencies arent as anal as the Revenue Collecting Motorized Patrol (RCMP) so you should be okay. For anyone wondering how it came up or why i wouldnt lie. Lying in an interview is bad/I didnt think it would be a problem/they give random lie detectors. I also had all of my financial records there and they eventually would have asked where all these funds are coming from without a job.
