Police Officer Quits After Forced to Eat 15 Burgers
Emirates 24/7 ^ | Friday, January 31, 2014

A police sergeant has resigned his post after he was reprimanded for forcing subordinates to binge on 15 hamburgers at a time to "toughen them up".

The unidentified traffic sergeant, 40, stepped down from his position in Japan's western megacity of Osaka on December 25, the mass-circulation newspaper Yomiuri Shimbun said.

He repeatedly ordered four younger officers to, in one sitting, stuff themselves with bulk meals such as 15 hamburgers, 15 donuts, four large-sized cups of instant fried noodles, or 3-4 litres of coffee-flavoured milk, the report said.

"After finding they were not working hard enough, I did it in order to toughen them up," the unnamed sergeant was quoted as telling investigators of the Osaka prefectural police headquarters.

The younger officers, in their 20s and 30s and assigned to two community police stations, were forced to binge on the meals when the sergeant visited them at work over a period of 10 times since early 2010, the report said.

He ordered the young policemen to buy the food and drink themselves out of their own pockets, and consume it inside their tiny "koban (police box)" stations as he watched.

A press officer at the prefectural police could not immediately confirm the report.

When I was in the service, I remember going to Sandy’s and getting a dozen burgers (I think they were .12 apiece) No problem downing those things and at the time my weight and the price was the same. A buck fifty.

If he shamed his family he’ll have to take a stroll to the suicide forest.

It doesn’t exactly sound like SEAL training. More like WALRUS training.

Jeez.. Even in the service they only made me run 2 miles to teach me a lesson. I was already tough.

“He ordered the young policemen to buy the food and drink themselves out of their own pockets”

That sarge should be forced to eat 15 Bowel Burgers Au Jus!

Headline makes it sound like the guy eating the hamburgers was reprimanded & resigned.

Yes it does. Not very well written.
