I worked for an auto parts recycler and had to go to the main police station in Decatur,Il to file a report for theft after a customer wouldn’t pay for an engine. There was a call box in the lobby you used to call the desk and they told you someone would be out in a few minutes...after waiting 30 minutes on 2 separate occasions, I told the boss if he wanted a report to be filed, he would have to do it himself.
I have a company car and it’s been broken into a few times and I have to go to the police station to file a report for insurance reasons. One of the questions on the report I have to fill out for my company is “badge number” of police officer. Every time I ask that question the desk cop looks like he’s gonna punch me in the face. A couple have actually gotten verbally upset.
