  I am sure you are correct that many people do not fulfill their initial aspirations in a job because of some managers wanting a easy life. I was for many years a senior manager and then for nearly ten years ran my own successful business until retirement. Unfortunately in all walks of life there will be people not dedicated to the work they do. This is possibly a very small number but sadly affect the majority.
  
  I will not go into the detail of my complaint, however, it was obvious nothing was being dealt with locally so I wrote to Chief Constable Fuller.
  
  Now we really see Police bureaucracy at its best. Acknowledge by Chief Constables office and referred to Divisional, Acknowledged by Divisional and referred to Local Comander, Acknowledged by Local Comander and referred to Dover Inspector. So right back where the problem started.
  I am sympathetic to the "front line" policeman, which we have too few, but it is the aparant aloofness of "Management" re a problem and if the entire police force in Kent is pushing paper back down the line do we really need these levels of police management who seem to adopt their own rules rather than those that the Chief Constable set. Remember nearly 10% of your Council Tax goes to Kent Police.
  
  The area that really bugs me is the use of foul language. Dont get me wrong and that I am pruddish, but the F this and F that in front of small children in the street is not right. Of course over the years the english language has changed so I suppose in a couple of generations these words will be accepted as the norm in the english dictionary.

  Thanks for remarks.
  
  I think, if we are all honest most of us have all had our moments of "high jix".
  
  What I am concerned is the regular anti-social groups (from whatever class) disturbing the majority of law abiding citizens. I do not believe there is a distinct class line as many problems in towns and cities is fuelled by late night "club" activities which seem to draw from all socio economic groups.
