  1. Her’e you opportunity.

  2. @3.44pm: Do you want to try that again in English this time?

  3. How’s this. Here is your opportunity. Sorry about that.

  4. The Ridgewood Police should have taken applications for Chief of Police!

  5. Yes your right 1:41 the Roberta could get one of her friends in as Chief.

  6. 1:41 Why do you say that? The new Chief came up through the ranks, passing all tests with high scores. How would you expect applications to show ability or achievements?

  7. How would you know what her test scores were ?

  8. What do you have against Ridgewood’s new Chief? How would you prefer the Police ranks to be selected? Currently Ridgewood is on the Civil Service system so logically her scores had to be high in order to be considered for Captain and then Chief.

  9. The town could have called for a test that would include both captains or at the towns option open the test to lieutenants

  10. Sounds like a bunch of sour grapes to me.

  11. knowing this town, I smell a big scam.

  12. she was told to cut the overtime by 40% in 2017, why over the top in spending. right bro,s
