Good morning. Welcome to November 2022.
You have successfully navigated Halloween … Samhain … All Hallows Eve … or pick your name for it. As the days get shorter (in daylight), the "night shift" gets longer and the temperatures get chillier, the leaves are changing to beautiful colors and football season is well underway. That means people inside for longer hours, and that is often accompanied by the consumption of alcohol (or other substances). Those out looking at the pretty fall colors often "stay warm" by consuming "anti-freeze" (alcohol) as well.
Make your Roll Call briefings count and keep your officers on their toes.
Stay safe!
