Armoured Social Worker

I would expect some very negative answers to this question.

It is however a very difficult question to answer and i'd be here all day thinking of what we do on a daily basis.
Primarily we are here to protect life, protect property and uphold the law but our role varies greatly from peacemaker to social worker! We are expected to be experts in everything by most members of society and can never seem to get it right no matter what we do in the eyes of most people.
Visit the website of your local Police force for more of an idea of the day to day role or alternatively email me for more of an idea of what its really like!

to uphold the law - thats the short version

Firstly to try and prevent crime, or that is supposed to be their role, but with the under staffing and red tape and paperwork all they can really do is try and investigate crime after it has happened.
