great video i am a senior detective with an undisclosed dept i really appreciate what you are doing i wish i had this video when i joined. keep up the great work.
Currently in step 3/4 of FTO. Everything in the video was useful and pretty accurate. I would just say that day shift is pretty damn lame. Calls are time-consuming and uninteresting lol. Thefts, frauds, property-damage accidents, etc. But I agree with everything else. Cool vid. It's interesting because i remember watching the video before i started the FTO process and now I'm almost done and watching this again. Just go into everyday excited and eager to learn more. They don't expect you to learn at the speed of light, but rather learn from your mistakes everyday. Anyways, good video my dude. Keep it up.
Thanks for making this video. As someone that is starting the Academy with the NYPD in January, I always wonder what FTOs expect from you. One of my goals is to become an FTO before trying to go for SGT because I enjoy not only teaching others but learning about people and how they function in the workplace.
Excellent video and I'll keep quiet when other police personnel are talking and I don't talk to a group of officers in a talk session if I'm not being spoken to directly but I get what your saying bro just come to work and do your job following protocol understood

Rojikku Reigns: Hey man, thank you for the videos. But i wouldn't say only police officers, but law enforcement it self.(i understand you do specialize in police force) but something i would like to see is a workout video. Maybe like a shorten workout video of rep. And sets, maybe even length of time you workout. I'm 6 months out to my correctional academy date. I'm working out, but i want to see what other law enforcement officers do to workout. Also your duty belt set up. You may already have videos similar to those but i just subscribe to you yesterday.
Buy some waterproof notebooks and pens. They are a little more pricey but it will pay off eventually. Also, some pens have clips that can be attached to your shirt.
Yep, you know you are listening to the radio when you know where ALL of your area partner's are at. Always roll up on your area partner 10-60's too and be the FIRST to jump in a fight when someone goes to the ground! Earn your wings!
Nice vid. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there. A piece of advice re the cuffs. I used to carry 2 double cuff case and one of them was ankle sized cuff, reason being last thing u need is to go hands on (officer involved fight) and try to slap on the cuff and it wont close because the wrist r to big. Also chk ur cuffs each shift some peeps like to joke and will double lock ur cuffs.
2 is 1, 1 is none and none is a no no. Also make sure you keep your nice pens to yourself and carry a box of cheap plastic pens. Never know who you'll hand a pen to, and what there hands are like.
I applied about a month ago and I was hired on last Friday....i start in 2 days. So I can tell ya, the anxiety will only get worse as that day gets closer😂😂
Bro. Getting yelled at in the academy or bootcamp is a joke. It's 100% useless. What they need to teach you is to not have an ego. To brush it off. Getting yelled at during training isn't going to ready you for real life.
About to go to an interview with a police department this week to try and get hired on. Do they issue you most of the standard equipment or are you responsible for buying most of it?
Depends on the department. I’m an Officer in CA and have been with two depts. and had two different experiences. The first was a huge major city agency that issued all duty equipments such as everything in the belt & full class A, class B (2 pants, 2 short sleeve, & 2 long sleeve), inclement weather uniform (BDU style) & rain gear. The current agency I’m with only issued the equipment on the duty belt, soft armor, & patrol bag. Class A, Class B uniforms, rain gear, & load bearing vest came out of my own pocket with the caveat that over a course of a year you get a uniform allowance. Pretty much each agency has you purchase your own boots. My academy was an in house for the first agency and they provided the Class A boots which I still use today at the new agency.
@@dibochet2058 the report writing issue,officer safety, for getting to build rapport with people, yeah it wasn’t the best experience I’m aware of things
I got an email the other day telling me I was accepting to take the police entry level exam at a department here in CT where I live. Can you just answer this question honestly? Is the test hard. I've tried to take practice test online but there's like no test you can take for free besides 1 that has 20 question. I passed that but I know that test isnt what the actual thing going to be like. My test is on Tuesday on the 16th and I'm freaking out cause I literally had a 5 day notice and I've been trying to prepare for it
@@rjthekidgaming2024 Florida is a bigger state so u have more departments to choose from or apply to. I applied to a department in Hartford CT which is the Capitol of Connecticut and which is also one of the most dangerous cities u could be in. I had my test like i said on the 16th. I actually finished the actual test itself but I didnt finish like 20 of the question on the end of the test which are just basically opinionated questions. I feel I didnt do so good on the math. Idk when our results come in the mail but I feel like i failed, if I didnt fail I, then I barely passed. I have another test on the 25 coming up at another department so I hope I do better with this one.
@@rjthekidgaming2024 yeah I knew people were able to pay to put themselves through the academy, but I heard its alot of Money. I have no clue and couldn't even tell u how much it might cost up here. I'm sure a quick Google search would tell me, but I never considered it. How much did u pay to go into the academy,?
Good video brother but that whole nothing in your dominant hand is bullshit. That’s continued tradition and it’s not true along touching the back of the tailight. Check out Mike Levi aka knockoutlights on youtube and instagram. It’s a training issue and it’s not that hard to drop a coffee cup to grab your weapon. Also, in most situations, you will have 2 hands on the weapon so wether the coffee cup is in my left or right hand I have to drop it regardless. The tail light touching is dumb because even if you check to secure the trunk there is an emergency release latch inside. Also, to say it’s to put you on the scene is dumb af because that’s why you call in the LOCAL over the radio and your CAD is gps tracked. If it rains the prints are gone. Just a few tips I picked up from some older swat guys. Very good video just passing on a couple things.
Helped a lot. I changed my major to go into the police Academy. I’m excited and nervous at the same time.
so m`am did you suceed ? I
How was your experience in the Academy?

Good luck on the new job and tips on how to be safe
This is one of the more helpful videos I've seen on FTO and preparedness. Thanks!
Awesome video Sir! I'm getting ready to go into academy. I would love to see a video on geography! Keep it up!
You'll be a skilled liar & 300lb waddling sack of totally corrupt blubber in no time.
You’re videos make me so excited for the academy you’re amazing

God bless, stay safe and stay focused.
Officer Young thanks 🙏🏾
Good thing the army has me doing a 14 minute 2 mile and maxing push ups and sit ups in 2 min. Also growing my education applied for the state troopers
Taylor Loring APFT is too easy
This video was great! Coming out of the army to become a police officer and I can’t wait to get into it.
I think you should make a part 2 to this .
I do security patrol and in process to become a police officer . Thanks and stay safe

This was an amazing video. Thanks for all the knowledge!
Great video hope to see your duty belt setup video soon. Be safe brother
You are a great Officer and speaker. Valuable advice, thank you for your service.

Very helpful, I'm starting FTO next week. Thanks for this video and tips.
Loved the music thanks for sharing info
Bro I love your channel solid advice
Hi sir! This is the most awesome video on FTO!! Thanks so much and much appreciated!!!
Very helpful bro. Starting my fto here soon
Great video!! Hope to see more police style videos maybe some stories on and off duty! 💪🏼
I’m currently going through the FTO program rn. I’m in week 1,
Nice vid. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there. A piece of advice re the cuffs.

2 is 1, 1 is none and none is a no no.
Also make sure you keep your nice pens to yourself and carry a box of cheap plastic pens. Never know who you'll hand a pen to, and what there hands are like.
Thanks for the great video man!
A lot of good tips. Sadly you rarely see other officers doing any of those things.
Taking administration of justice excited can’t wait to be an officer one day maybe swat.
My respects great video
Don't describe the name of land marks too much just use examples brother so you can keep the department you work for private. But great content.
Awesome info thanks
Very helpful sir!
Tourniquets don't go on the wound.
Great video!
What’s the population in your city? Getting ready to start FTO in my city. Just found your page tonight, definitely subscribing.
Can you do a video about your vehicle and or patrol bag? What items are with you "just in case" but aren't used daily like your duty belt.
SpadedAZ he has one
After every shift with my FTO I feel like I ran the Boston Marathon
I've watched every video and still i have anxiety😱 but i applied
I applied about a month ago and I was hired on last Friday....i start in 2 days. So I can tell ya, the anxiety will only get worse as that day gets closer😂😂
Upper Cutz have you graduated from the academy?
What’s your progress brother
Did you have college experience when you applied ?
Can you do one on making it through probation?
I. 💘 your. Videos.
Bro. Getting yelled at in the academy or bootcamp is a joke. It's 100% useless. What they need to teach you is to not have an ego. To brush it off. Getting yelled at during training isn't going to ready you for real life.
If I am able to run 2 miles in sub 16 mins. Is that a good enough level of fitness for the academy?
Yes . 2 miles in 16 minutes is great. Usually they want you to run 1.5 miles in 16 minutes.
An 8 minute mile ain’t bad but ain’t good. If you ever want to stand out or do Swat most places require a 6 minute mile, “sub 7 minutes”.
@@ragingninja4292 dang so long story short I got hired and passed the police academy since this post.
That was fast
Did you always knew you wanted to be a police officer?
Joshua Minkin always
What type of combat training do you recommend for cops?
DAAT training

Do you get paid whole being in the police academy because I was curious thinking In going but I got a truck payment and a bike payment
No most depts only pay like 85% of your actual salary which is pretty good and manageable
@Emery reigns do departments have height requirements or no?
why the video so smooth? lol
You should make a separate account for police videos and make more id definitely subscribe and share
Holy tight shirt lol
I didn't pass FTO

What department do you belong to?
how have you not been struck for using meek as your intro music
footbalr074 he’s my cousin
I’m with it
He's ur cousin foreal?
question: can you play music while driving around? or is non essential noise restricted?
Charles Balliet I just did a ride along yesterday and they were playing music. So yes
Some departments you can, some you can't. Many you can.
Most you can yes
They don’t give you the 10 codes In the academy?
Roman Porsche they do.
Great video. But keep your head shaved, come on man.
I think he meant, if they make you shave your head in the academy, to keep it shaved on FTO.
High and tight..or double zero low or medium fade
