4000 nypd officers called in sick yesterday .. thats bulloooo they signed up to protect that city they new what they were signing up for when they joined. If they are sick thats different but if they just called in thats really sad.

A little over a week ago our local troopers did the same thing 1 out of 42 showed up

Can you provide the source on that?

I’m sure they are sick. The crap that NYPD cops deal with on a daily basis, I don’t see hundreds of them calling in sick because of a virus.

This is from a friend who is close to a few troopers

They probably ate beaver burgers.  Awfully judge-mental coming from a friend of a friend friends.....

[greensider]

You clearly don’t know my friends if you did you would not question them

[WEM144]

Nope , I don’t.  And i don’t know you.

[greensider]

Exactly why your comments were unnecessary

So the friend who is close friends with a few troopers- did those troopers not go to work?

[greensider]

That’s is what i was told it was one day sort of a blue flu

[WEM144]

Ahhh not trying to start a war......just saying friend of a friend etc.....thats all.

All the coppers i know state and local have been working everyday.

I find it harder to believe 4000 nypd officers called in but I don’t question what someone else post at this time just saying

 I'm not looking to start a war either, but perhaps someone was just mistaken or took something out of context. I mean let's just look at that statement. 1 in 42 came in to work. I highly doubt any station in Dutchess County is staffed with 42 troopers. That's a lot. I'll go a step further and wager that in any given day there's not even 42 troopers patrolling the entire county. Not calling anyone a liar, but something seems off. Now if it were 42 statewide that might be correct.
