How is someone that gets out of breath eating a donut going to protect and serve anyone?

    Now I dont work in the law enforcement industry but I do work in an industry that has supposed fitness requirements although they arent enforced.

    For us, the union told them “If they have to maintain a weight of X to remain employed. You have to pay them to hit the gym on company time or pay their gym fees and an allowance.” So the company filed that away under “fuck that”. Now if you get too fat for the equipment they just move you to a different duty, often one with a shitload of walking around.

        Backfired big time too.

        Most of the big older guys realised that walking around all day is actually a pretty low pressure and laid back gig even if you are on your feet all day and dont want to go back on the machines once they are getting like 20,000 steps a day and lose the weight.
