JordisWierd YLD can you explain the benefits? I look on transparent California and most officers make majority of their pay on the “benefits”. Even my uncle does
when I went into the Navy I started off enlisted working as a Master at arms reached MA2 (basically the navy version of a Sgt.) before completing my degree and going officer. I ended up at Lieutenant Commander at my highest which is the gold oakleave of a Major in civilian Law Enforcement or the other military branches like the USMC. worst mistake I made was getting out
This will vary by department, but a rule of thumb is as long as the driver's vision is unobstructed, most officers will give you a pass. If it is six months later, and you are still driving around with that cracked windshield they may take it more seriously. And unobstructed vision doesn't even require a windshield at all. I know two stormchasers, one was in Texas and the other in northern Nebraska, that got caught in a hail storm and had all their windows shattered. In both cases they bought some motorcycle goggles, took a baseball bat and knocked out the windows completely. Put their goggles on and hightailed it for home. Only one comment was made by any officer, he pulled up next to them in a drive-in and said "Looks like y'all had a bad day", to which they strongly agree. He told them to drive safely and left.
Thank you Officer 401. My brother is a SGT in TX, a lot of which he doesn't share. I love hearing more of what he does though your videos. God bless you. Love ❤️ and hugs 🤗 🙋🏼
My local department is easy, they have 8 ranks. Cadet, Officer, Senior Officer, Sergeant, Lieutenant, Captain, Major and Chief. Pretty easy to follow. No stripes for anyone under Sergeant.
The world needs more officers like officer 401, learned so much from him and he makes me wanna follow his foot steps ! Thank you for your service officer !!! God bless !!
Hey officer401. Thank you for all you're doing to bridge the gap. What you, Mike and Daniels are doing showing the public who we really are. Once again thank you from an 18 year veteran
Yes thats simple. Where I am from we would have a few levels of P.O., a couple sgts, LT, Capt Commander(1 star),deputy chief, Ast Chief and Chief(4 stars)
@@BamaPewPew I grew up in a town we had one officer. He was the chief of police. So our chief actually rolled around, responded to calls, and wrote tickets. If you got arrested he had to take you to the next town over because we didn't have a jail.
Your video and your perspective is spot on! I am a shift sargeant and on my days off I order pizzas and have them delivered to my station to boost moral. I also call or text my officers that have family in the hospital or etc.. My officers are my family! And as long as they are doing their jobs I will support them and go out of my way for them!
The show "To Catch a Predator" saved at least 1 life b/c he had ropes, duct tape and a knife in his trunk when he thought he was meeting a 15 y/o girl.
My grandpa was chief in Gallup, NM. The stories I've heard about my grandpa really leave me in awe. He was such an awesome man from what I hear. He is the reason I want to become an officer! I've taken a free class at my local PD and also taken a few ride alongs and it always excites me. Keep up the good work and stay safe!
Detectives have different ranks. Usually, they're at least a Sergeant/Corporal, and there are plenty that are Lieutenants too. It also depends on the specific department.
Im speaking for the NYPD. Detectives technically don't hold any power. They are literally, all grades are equivelant to a Patrolman in ordering power. But they are assigned investigative leads in cases, which gives them to ability to give orders. To counteract this lack of authority, detectives have grades. These are only pay grades though. A detective 3rd grade will be paid more than a patrolman and less than a sergeant. A detective 2nd grade will be paid more than a sergeant and less than a lieutenant. It's complicated.
@@sndemir4920 That sounds crazy ... Perhaps because I am a fan of the KISS principle, it would may make more sense if:- Detective 3rd Grade -> upper end of a Patrolman's pay band (in other words, almost, if not exactly, the highest salary a Patrolman expects to receive after both a set time period of service, and a good conduct record). Detective 2nd Grade -> within the same pay band as a Sergeant. Detective 1st Grade -> within the same pay band as a Lieutenant. And thus to 'Detective' (ala un-uniformed) Captain. That would, possibly, even out any overlaps, although I am not sure such a move will please any one in the NYPD below Captain ... [Edited for dumb errors ...]
Most places have step pay for patrolmen like a patrolman 1 makes 50k and a patrolman 2 makes 60k patrolman 3 makes 75k while a Lt 1 makes 64k so you can stay in the lower ranks but still get pay raises its not like the military
TheFelish33 This is a situation that occurs in many jobs/professions, does one want to be close to the action or be on a desk and play politics. It is a personal decision and thankfully many do not want to pass this threshold, because those at the line are the best and most productive. Chiefs, Sargents, managers,....
In my town's police department (Smaller department, 1 station and about 80 officers for 32k people) it's Chief (Uses eagle insignia), Captain, Lieutenant, Sergeant, Officer, Cadet. There are 2 Captains, one runs Administration Bureau, and the other, Operations, and Lieutenants are either division heads or shift commanders, while Sergeants are just shift supervisors.
Can you do a video on something I've always been interested in, How does getting gas for a cop work? Do they have a special card they use? And how is it tracked to make sure you don't get gas for your own car? Please answer I've always wondered! LIKE SO HE WILL SEE!
No, we don't pay for the fuel. Most departments I'm familiar with use gas depots owned by the municipality they serve. We are required to accurately provide the amount of fuel we use and provide the current mileage of the vehicle at the time we refuel.
In my town the city has a contract with a gas company. It is just a company that provides gas for city vehicles. The cops have a pin or card that they can enter at the pumps.
I'm an EMT but I bet its the same. I have a gas card with a pin number thats tied to my name. Every time I make a gas purchase, my boss can see it, and if I'm not scheduled to drive that day, they don't expect a purchase
officer401 hey man I’m thinking of being a police officer and hopefully one day upgrade to swat in California do you think the pay and cost of life is worth it ?
@@bryantmurillo9145 well, there are multiple dozens of pages on Google regarding pay in Police, especially California PDs. I’m gonna tell you right away: Pay and benefits ARE NOT worth the risk that you’re gonna be facing every day, especially in a SWAT team. Probably the only good PD is NYPD with their 100k+ pay after 5 years of service (even though that’s not that much in NYC). Otherwise, you’re better off joining the FBI or military.
I'm a trooper, and I own a custom 12' camaro SS , if I stop someone in a modified car(usually for speeding), I'm usually more excited about the car then their speed lol...i usually tell em to slow down, talk about cars, give em a fist bump....and we go our separate ways , but of course your gonna have some cops/troopers who are hardcore and could care less about modified cars....to each their own i guess
Hey! Great video! My department runs a little differently. It goes Academy Recruit, then Probationary Officer/ Police Officer 1 (PO1). Probation lasts for a year and includes the FTO period, which is usually 3 months long unless they think an officer needs more help/ training in something. After that, is Police Officer 2 (PO2). This is most of the department. Officers also have the option of going through the Career Development Program (CDP) where they can become a Senior Police Officer (SPO) and earn the single chevron. At the completion of the CDP, they become a Master Police Officer (MPO), which has the chevron with a little diamond under it. Then there's Sergeant and First Sergeant, the Street Supervisors. There are 2 SGTS and 1 FSGT on every squad. Then there's Lieutenant and Captain, who are what you described. Then there's Major, who's in charge of a Division of the department, like the Operations Division, Support Division, etc. There are only 3 to 4 Majors in the department as far as I know. Then Lieutenant Colonel and Colonel are the Assistant Chief and Chief respectively. Apparently, a lot of the higher ups and the more political figures of the community are looking to change some things and may add the rank of Corporal somewhere in there..
Hey 401, I've got a question. I want to be a police officer in Peoria IL. Which is where I was born but I live in Chicago. Anyway, it's a town with lots of robberies and drug stuff. Can you tell us some stories about robbery or druggy folks you've responded to before?
Michael Matheny in 2017 that's a pretty risky job. And the fact that it's Chicago is even worse. Chicago in general is awful. The gangster are probably not afraid to shoot back. Enjoy everyday cause you never know if you'll even see tomorrow.
@@danf2 Conflict of interest concerns, entrapment causing dropped charges with a lack of evidence, concerns that the show was purposely attracting sexual predators to the neighborhood.

How does a dump truck shit out a rock? From what I understand of a dump truck, they do not have digestive systems, and they do not have any mouths. Therefore, they do not have the ability to consume and poop out rocks. Love you videos officer401
I'm wondering what education or certifications it takes to hold the ranks. In the military every comissioned officer (lieutenant or higher) must have at least a baccalaureate degree.
Your content is amazing, and what i like about you is that you like to interact with your viewers, and you give us what we want. And you arent in it for the extra money, you are here to help others understand these things about being a police officer and i love that about you.
As a autoglass installer make sure the technician that does you windshield primers all the scratches that he makes while installing you windshield so you don't get rust.
At my small sheriff's office we have deputies, 3 road sergeants, 1 jail sergeant, 1 lieutenant, the chief deputy and the sheriff. We don't have enough deputies to justify all the other ranks.
Not sure if that is his radio/badge # generally the lower the # is the higher the rank. my town PD is in the 800's and 801 is the chief's # a badge in the 20's depending on dept size might be a Capt. or Lt. all the way down to slick sleeve. Its the same thing in Fire/EMS I currently hold a Captains position in my town Dept. and my radio/Badge # is 13 (though it should be 5 right now I just did not want to change my # on account of 13 being my lucky # ;) )
You are the definition of a great supervisor! The one who picks up their officers and also cooks for them?! Hope I get you as my supervisor once I become LEO! Stay safe!
You are so correct brother, i went behind a desk 4 years ago and i just retired. Wished i hadnt taken that promotion and went behind that desk because its boring as hell. 29 years and 11 months worth. Stay safe out there.
What does it mean when I would show up and my department chief would run away, or leave the station the moment I walked in? I was fire & rescue. It's a small mom and pop all hazards department of less than 900 in a metropolitan area. I refused further promotion and refused awards. Only after I retired did I get awards through the mail.
@@nightmarefiles1 Correct E-4 + are all considered NCO's basically they do the roles of what a civilian police Sgt. does, lower level day to day supervision
you can turn down a promotion, usually what happens is the department will look for officers with career goals that include a promotion to LT or whatever. If there's a lack of qualified officers with the desire to be promoted past Sgt they'll ask qualified Sgts how they feel about being promoted long before the promotion ever comes down the pipe. You can turn down a medal but it is always, always considered extremely bad mannered and is usually only done due to some sort of protest with the reason for getting the medal. You will probably get your ass chewed hard for turning down an award of any kind.
what if that person career goal is to in the position they are in and fully continent with there life and the medal thing thats just stupid get your ass chewed out because you just want to be humble as hell and not to showoff
That’s interesting. I’ve never seen stuff like private, staff sgt, or colonel. On my department in Tx, it goes officer, sgt, LT, deputy chief, assistant chief, and then chief. And the detectives are also the corporals. At my dads old department (Dallas) it was officer, senior corporal (FTO), sgt, LT, Major, deputy chief, assistant chief, executive assistant chief, and then chief. The rank of major is kind of a new one. The city has 7 sub stations so each one is overseen by a major.

Xavier Your Savior Fuck you bitch

Yellow: I ONLY HAVE LIMITED TIME *ZOOM*
Red: Ugh fuck now I have to wait
7:01 Lol. Don't tell me you were HIS boss.
Well, damn, I just learned something new and interesting about police ranks.
Thanks for sharing :-)
I love the LAPD and LASD rank titles.
How does a dump truck shit out a rock? From what I understand of a dump truck, they do not have digestive systems, and they do not have any mouths. Therefore, they do not have the ability to consume and poop out rocks.
Love you videos officer401
Dumb ass
R/wooosh
What about detectives? Where do they fall in the ranking lineup?
anyone that is/was military that is more confused comment below
It sort of turned into white noise at some point..
I'm wondering what education or certifications it takes to hold the ranks. In the military every comissioned officer (lieutenant or higher) must have at least a baccalaureate degree.
M J really why?
HEMBRO Cause reasons.
Heng Kai Khaw just like, breh wat.
Your content is amazing, and what i like about you is that you like to interact with your viewers, and you give us what we want. And you arent in it for the extra money, you are here to help others understand these things about being a police officer and i love that about you.
You should do a crazy stories video about some of the crazy things you have done or seen. Also love the videos keep up the great work👍
That was an exceptionally helpful and informative video!
Can you show us your Sound System Set-up
When I was an EMT there was such a pile of paper to try to report suspected abuse.
The lazier you are as a police officer the higher rank you will become. #Fact.
I have to disagree. I know some Captains and Lieutenants that are harder working than the officers that work for them.
officer401 much love from Australia 🇦🇺
DemarkableP nah, it's all about who you know, like every profession. There's some hard working Lt.'s and Sarges out there.
Small Town PD Rank Promotion Usually Means Previous Officer Fucked Up, Quit and or Retired......
DemarkableP And i thought hillary was a fucking retarded piece of shit. You now hold the new title.
As a autoglass installer make sure the technician that does you windshield primers all the scratches that he makes while installing you windshield so you don't get rust.
This is one of the most interesting videoes you've made🤔😂
Thanks, I love anything to do with ranks, units and structure in the military, law enforcement or anything else. Good video.
Broken winshield
Rock...NAH
I'm going with the door thing but with winshield.
Great video! Thank you for your service and be safe out on them streets!
Broken windshield!!! Didnt you just fix your car lol
At my small sheriff's office we have deputies, 3 road sergeants, 1 jail sergeant, 1 lieutenant, the chief deputy and the sheriff. We don't have enough deputies to justify all the other ranks.
discord bout to be lit
Lmao same
Thank you for your service
How long does it take to get to rank 401 as a cop?
Cause I wanna get to rank 420.
Not sure if that is his radio/badge # generally the lower the # is the higher the rank. my town PD is in the 800's and 801 is the chief's # a badge in the 20's depending on dept size might be a Capt. or Lt. all the way down to slick sleeve. Its the same thing in Fire/EMS I currently hold a Captains position in my town Dept. and my radio/Badge # is 13 (though it should be 5 right now I just did not want to change my # on account of 13 being my lucky # ;) )
In my county every corporal is either a school resource officer, FTO, or a first line supervisor
Hey Officer401, can you make a video about Police Explores? It's up to you man.
Cool Story Bro no he means police for the school
That window tint Is amazing.
Cause of my depression..:
Not watching enough Officer401 videos ☹️
Cool insight. Was def very curious. Thanks for the vid!
Wow, Officer401 to catch a predator, airing next year on youtube!
You are the definition of a great supervisor! The one who picks up their officers and also cooks for them?! Hope I get you as my supervisor once I become LEO! Stay safe!
hey officer 401 i hope u re having a great day ! i would love to know more about military ranks given ur experience, any way keep the good work .
You are so correct brother, i went behind a desk 4 years ago and i just retired. Wished i hadnt taken that promotion and went behind that desk because its boring as hell. 29 years and 11 months worth. Stay safe out there.
I feel bad for that old guy. Think of it he's probably just like thinking "what the hell why didn't I get a water bottler ass hole!"
Egan Pelak lmao he does. Just without the protein powder.
Liam Tuk pre workout s not protein its an energy formula
Your department knows your specialty, the digital world needs police.
Quick question.
Can they, will they, do they, force officers (of whatever rank) to rank up?
I do not think so.
Screamin Eagle you test for promotions, only if you want to
What does it mean when I would show up and my department chief would run away, or leave the station the moment I walked in? I was fire & rescue. It's a small mom and pop all hazards department of less than 900 in a metropolitan area. I refused further promotion and refused awards. Only after I retired did I get awards through the mail.
I think its funny that police “officers” are still called officers if they have an enlisted rank of military
The ranks don't match up, obviously.
Ralph Ferguson well the insignias do
Yet, enlisted ranks are Non Commissioned OFFICERS corporal and higher
@@nightmarefiles1 Correct E-4 + are all considered NCO's basically they do the roles of what a civilian police Sgt. does, lower level day to day supervision
Great information and communication
Can you turn down a rank if you don't want it and a medal as well
you can turn down a promotion, usually what happens is the department will look for officers with career goals that include a promotion to LT or whatever. If there's a lack of qualified officers with the desire to be promoted past Sgt they'll ask qualified Sgts how they feel about being promoted long before the promotion ever comes down the pipe.
You can turn down a medal but it is always, always considered extremely bad mannered and is usually only done due to some sort of protest with the reason for getting the medal. You will probably get your ass chewed hard for turning down an award of any kind.
Hiruma Ryuei why?
what if that person career goal is to in the position they are in and fully continent with there life and the medal thing thats just stupid get your ass chewed out because you just want to be humble as hell and not to showoff
That’s interesting. I’ve never seen stuff like private, staff sgt, or colonel. On my department in Tx, it goes officer, sgt, LT, deputy chief, assistant chief, and then chief. And the detectives are also the corporals. At my dads old department (Dallas) it was officer, senior corporal (FTO), sgt, LT, Major, deputy chief, assistant chief, executive assistant chief, and then chief. The rank of major is kind of a new one. The city has 7 sub stations so each one is overseen by a major.
What do you think of conservation officers?
Nicolas Wagler do you mean conSerVation officers? Like DNR or Game Warden?
Nicolas Wagler too much talk
I’m still laughing about spiking the squads water with C4
