I called today to check on progress of p2p. Detective answered said they are off today, presidents day,I said wait next monday is presidents day, he said oh, must be Lincoln s b day. WTF!!! NO wonder it takes 10 to 14 weeks for p2p.

I'm beginning to think that the slow down is deliberate in EBPD. When I applied for mine by mid-November, the lady who accepted my application mentioned that it will take 8-10 weeks for the permit to come out. My references got the letter from EBPD in less than a week after I applied and was promptly mailed back. When I called on week 7 for a follow-up, I was told that the officer who was making calls to references for verification was backed up and have not been able to make the calls yet. On Week 9, the references finally got the call from EBPD that took less than a couple of minutes. On week 10, I got my letter notification that the permits are ready for pick-up.

 

As promised, the permits got done within the period that was promised. At least the EBPD does not impose unnecessary requirements that other PD's are asking for in posts that I've read in the forum.

I'm pissing myself laughing here. Wow, must be nice to have a job like that

Lincoln's Bday is friday.

Lincoln's Bday is friday.

 

But "I don't want to do my job so screw off, and what are you going to do about it?" is every day of the week!

Lincoln's BDay was yesterday

Good to get all these holidays. OT.

Yep...holiday pay yesterday

I guess I need to add some more holidays

 

Sound like that was it. Probably some people had off today. The phone call was still pretty funny

My job has next Monday listed as an "optional" day to work.

 

Why even bother! Who's going to come in?

As a e brunswick tax payer,this really piss me off.I wonder if they also got groundhog day off as well.

WOW. I went into the GCPD this morning, because my last permit is set to expire tomorrow. I had planned on dropping it off and picking it up later in the week or next, with the extension. She took my permit, ask me to hold on for minute, and within 5-minutes she presented me with my extended pistol permit. Cheers to the GCPD.
