A rookie police officer was out for his first
ride in
a cruiser with an experienced partner. A call came in
telling them to
disperse some people who were loitering.
The
officers drove to the street and observed a small crowd standing on
a
corner.
The rookie rolled down his window and said, "Let's get
off the corner
people."
A few glances, but no one moved, so he
barked again, "Let's get off
that corner...
NOW!"
Intimidated, the group of people began to leave, casting puzzled stares
in
his direction.
Proud of his first official act, the young
policeman turned to his
partner and asked, "Well, how did I
do?"
Pretty good," chuckled the vet, "especially since this is a bus
stop."
