Unit 4 Part B Text 1 Being a Police Officer Is a Stressful Job Interviewer: Welcome to our program, Sam. Sam: Thank you. Interviewer: Sam, how long have you been a police officer? Sam: Ive been a police officer for thirty years. Interviewer: Thirty years. And youve had different types of assignments on the police force, I guess.

Lets say, for example, a patrol officer stops someone for a traffic violation. It seems as though that would be a very low-stress situation. Interviewer: Yes, it is a very low-stress situation. Sam: But the truth is, there are more police officers injured during a routine stop. Interviewer: Really? Sam: Really!
