Dr. Kacy TillmanI sat by an election denier on the airplane and he started poking me in the arm to be emphatic about his views on people stealing ballots secretly and the airplane was full and I couldn’t move anywhere so I started explaining the yellow fever in very great detail, all the way down to telling him about the bloody vomit that looks like coffee grounds and it worked. He stopped talking to me. The moral of this story is you can’t out-weird an academic; our toolset is too vast. #vastearlyamerica
sitnuok@kacytillman That's awesome! I can take something borderline "edgy" over the cliff and make it uncomfortable in a heartbeat.

Police attending my home after my husband's sudden death, opened a letter addressed to me. When I discovered this, I asked the young officer why they thought my pap smear appointment was of interest to anyone except me and my GP. He asked what a pap smear was ... so I explained. He was squirming by the end of the first sentence.

That sounds like a huge trampling of privacy law/s!
It is illegal to open others' mail where you are, isn't it?
@Shushorchid
Yes, it is. I made my feelings clear to the senior officer ... and it was a learning experience for the young officer.

Then it was grounds to file charges, yes?
I hope that you did.
It doesn't matter that the junior officer was inexperienced, or whatever...b/c that was a civil violation of rights, which could have negatively impacted you, if it were another type of sensitive info, etc...
Newbies getting taps on knuckles, hardly does anything to rein in bad behaviour...

I had worked for the police previously, so 'know the ropes': plus I had other things on my mind, and my husband's funeral to arrange.
