Hey, what academy you going to? I went in 1982, but when I transfered to my current department I found state POST had lost my records and I had to go back to another one just a few years ago. I learned a few things....
Its all a game, play by thier rules 'cuz its only a few months.
If your not early your late.
No matter how polished the item is, your RTO thinks its dull.
No matter how well you ran the course, the RTO will say it was slow.
If you shoot a 300 on the range, the RTO will say it was "a sloppy 300"
But remember..............
After graduation they call the number one recruit...officer.
After graduation they call the recruit who came in dead last......officer
And what do you call your RTO's after graduation, brother officers. Its just a job to them dont take it personally.
