Good for you. I wouldn't have thought being in the PSNI would be the easiest force going, especially for an Aspie. :)

I used to be a police officer over here in the states. I think it's possible and I think you'll really like the job. Good luck. :wink:

I applied once. Gone on to other things.
In a screening interview they asked about what jobs I thought were good in the police. I made the mistake of saysing dog squad. The right answers (I found later there is right answers) was:
1. catching bad guys.
2. catching bad guys
3. catching bad guys.

Good luck
