I was thinking about making this thread. You should choose one poster to answer for each question you ask, though, otherwise it'll become a mess pretty quickly.
HCGLNS You have the option of having a personal reading of your favorite book from your favorite author. What is the book and author?
I only made one. And I only got a few questions.

I was expecting to get awesome questions like stienman and BananaHands were giving everyone, but then I got like.. 3.
Also, people love to ask silly questions almost as much as they do answering them. To be honest it's hard to believe it took THIS long for the new batch of AMAs to pop out. I'm pretty sure you can blame Gilgamesh

What did I miss? What's going on here?Ok, please read The Bells by Edgar Allen Poe, increasing in volume with each stanza.I was thinking about making this thread. You should choose one poster to answer for each question you ask, though, otherwise it'll become a mess pretty quickly.

It's something I've never once experienced in my entire life. No one has ever been that clever. No one. Not one person.
Nope!
Is it possible for a new RCMP officer to get trained and only work for a few months before taking two consecutive paid paternity breaks?
How do you handle dealing with some of the lowest forms of scum society has to offer?

How does one get into a situation where they need to take two consecutive paternity leaves, unless each leave is over 9 months?
We have the absolute highest amount of parental leave on this side of the ocean and more than most on the other side too. Parental leave can be up to 35 weeks split between the parents as they see fit (on top of the 15 weeks the mom gets anyway).
As for 2 consecutive leaves, I have no idea if we have benefits that cover that. Not something I've ever checked on. Maybe I will.
I don't at all much anymore. It's pretty rad, though I deal with far more gruesome shit now. I don't have to deal much with the people involved, except for doing interviews and such.
Otherwise I laugh about it. I make fun of it. If I didn't, I would go nuts.[DOUBLEPOST=1358178283][/DOUBLEPOST]
I have a huge splotchy birthmark on my left ass cheek.
I have a cousin who is is married to a relatively new RCMP officer. I say relatively new because I can't for the life of me figure out how much he's actually worked so far. They had a kid right a few months after his training so he took a parental leave then. He only just went back to work briefly and now he's leaving again for their newest kid who was just born. I was curious how the heck they were able to do this sort of thing (aka I wish I could get in on this sort of thing but I have to work to make money to support my family).
Shoot, yeah. Being paid a full time wage to have children?
The US is about the worst first world country in this respect:

I don't think I've ever taken off more than 2 weeks, and most of the time it's a week if I don't mind doing a bit of work at home and handling emergencies. This last time it was a week, and I actually worked ahead so I didn't use any PTO, nor get behind on any of my projects.
