We have several buildings and several departments are in each building. The logistics department has about 100 employees and in my office are 6 people. We are responsible for facility management of all the offices in our state.
Now you might wonder what these offices are, right? Well, we are working for the government and the offices are called police stations ... and the TP is for the over 2,000 police officers in our state ;)
A !BEER has to be cold and a !COFFEEA has to be hot to taste good and not !DERANGED 😉
Oh, very interesting sir johannpiber! So the facility management office takes care of the maintenance, supplies and what it takes to run those buildings(or facilities) all over the state and those buildings happen to be the police stations! So your company's work is pretty important.
Well, my friend, our company is not really a company, we are a police department with the difference that we don't do police work, but logistics and facility management for the police. And yes, we are important I believe ;)

Wow, that is so interesting sir johannpiber! Do you have anything in common with the regular police like any kind of uniforms or training?
I never wanted to tell that to anybody, because all my life long when I have told anybody that I am a policeman they didn't stop to ask questions about anything. So I keep this mostly for myself.
Yes, I am a policeman since 1985, when I have been at the police school in Krumpendorf where I am still working - not at the police school, but in the logistic department ... and No, I didn't lie to you when I said that I hate weapons, because I really don't like my gun and I only shoot because I have to train a few times a year.
After police school I have chosen to not go on the streets, but do office work, because police works as everybody knows it and patroling on the streets is not my thing.
So I do have a uniform and a gun, but I wear this uniform only a few times a month when I have a nightshift and have to guard our barracks.
FYI: Until 2005 we were called "Gendarmerie" and then we merged with the "Polizei" (= police). The Gendarmerie was in duty for all roads and villages and towns - countryside. The Polizei was only in the bigger towns. Now we are everywhere ... and before you ask I have to tell you that the Gendarmerie was the better police, because we have learned more and were better trained ;)
Take care my friend - stay safe and healthy :)
Wow, very interesting sir johannpiber! So actually you and Mrs. J. are both in law enforcement. Just different aspects of it.
People are strange when it comes to police but I have always respected them, we need them to keep order even though the bad ones ruin the reputations of the rest of them.
What barracks are there to guard? Is that barracks in the complex of buildings where you work?
What kind of gun do you have?
My wife does not wear uniform and during the working hours I am her boss - at least I try to, but it is as it is at home I say something and hope she listens to me ;)
We do also have a few bad policemen, but most are good guys like me ;)
Yes, I mean the buildings with a high fence around - this is called "Kaserne" in German and I have found only this English translation.
I knew you would ask - I have a Glock 17 :)
lol...so the Missus tries to listen to you at work but at home...forget it! lol.
So, the barracks and many other buildings are in the same complex as your office building and then there are other complexes around the country?
Oh I love the Glock 17! I have that as my main sidearm unless I'm carrying my Colt sixshooter. But of course, what other type of gun would you have? lol..I learned a few years ago that Glocks were made in Austria and I thought.."where? lol...I don't know of anything that is made in Austria, where IS Austria anyway? lol."
I know there are Glock USA models made here and we make the slides, barrel and frame here. You guys make the best handguns in the world!
