CHAPTER ONE

Dealing With Superior Female Officers


RULE ONE: If you are unlucky enough to have a bird...er, I mean a woman for a boss; on NO account make an enemy of her, even if you hate her guts!


RULE TWO: If you do, she will make your life a living nightmare and constantly remind you of every past mistake that you have ever made - just like a wife, in fact (trust me, I know!)


RULE THREE: It is much better to butter up your commanding officer (not literally!) with nice comments and the occasional box of choccies, and you will have a friend for life, plus someone to take to the Senior Police Officers Ball if you cannot find a date, especially if she is single, separated, divorced or just hard-up for a bloke!


RULE FOUR: Play your cards right and not only will your career go from strength to strength, but your love/sex life might too!


REMEMBER: Enemy - Eternal Hell!

WHEREAS: Friend/Lover - Total Heaven forever and ever, Amen!
