The PCSOs are bored
Discussion
PCSOs were responsible for the majority of cases of gross misconduct among Metropolitan Police staff in 2008, despite making up only 20% of the workforce.
In more than half of the 35 cases of gross misconduct against PCSOs in the Met in 2008, employees were sacked or reprimanded for offences such as drinking and driving or other motoring crimes.
On other occasions, police computers were misused or there was inappropriate behaviour, while in one case, a false allegation was made by a PCSO. (Only one?)
Apparently, "Some felt akin to "glorified security guards", the force's HR director said."
Not sure where the 'glorified' bit comes in
