She asked the branch mgr about depositting gold blocks.
Did you know that planes fly because of the Holy Spirit, because scientists have no idea how planes fly, they can not explain it.

BTW-since you dont have many traffic tickets issued, the bosses dont ever ask you to pick it up in traffic, or what the reason is you have so few?

I work graveyards were our focus is more on looking for drunks and burglars.
It seems every officer has their specialty. Some guys are big on dope, some on traffic, and I'm big on DWI detection and enforcement.
As long as you are doing something they leave you alone. I've never been told I need to write more tickets.
I don't like traffic tickets because they are really a regressive tax. If I stop a doctor, lawyer, exec type, for speeding and the fine is $225, that is not crap %-wise to their annual salary. I write a scaffold builder, teacher, maid, etc..., the same ticket, and that is a much bigger % of their salary. Tickets punish some more than others for the same crime. Just does not seem right to me. (Not saying there are not people who need tickets though.)

Winners never quit, and quitters never win; but, if you never win, and never quit, you're a moron.
