One of the guys who came back as a re hire about 3-4 years ago asked to be a FTO, he was gone less than a year I think. He was told no, that he would have to wait 3 years because of contract, that someone may file a grievance. Every PTO class since then I think only a few may have had over 5 years, the rest were 3 year guys. Experience is not welcomed in the LMPD. Like the poster said, kids training kids.
