If there is someone who dislikes the police force it would be me because of the corruption those people indulge in and pretend like they don't know what they are doing. As much as I dislike that job, fortunately, and unfortunately,
I am the daughter of a one-time superintendent of police before his death, so tell me why my negotiation skills would be bad especially when it involves getting what I want.

I was born and bred in the barracks, I still have the energy rush that comes with being an office daughter even though my dad is no more, I still get that strength to believe that I can handle anyone who tries to mess with me, this is a perk that comes with being in such environment and a daughter to a force man. The worst part, is I was a dad's girl and favourite, reasons why I do tell people that I can get anything I want, except I am not interested in that thing or do not see a need for it.

I still have that negotiation skill that comes with being an officer's daughter and being in such an environment. Don't blame me if I can sweet talk you to give me what I need, maybe not at that time, but I would always get it. A few people back then who didn't know me, have seen me negotiate with people and have asked me why I am not joining the police skill because I have the skill and ability to negotiate to be able to get what I want.

When a friend finally found that I was a police officer's daughter, he told me my father's blood runs in my veins, and I should go and join the police force because, with the negotiation skills and tactics I use in getting something from someone, I could use that in getting lies from anyone during interrogation. I mean I wouldn't dispute that because of course I am my father's favourite and I learned from the best, lol, but I am never going to be a part of the force.

When it comes to negotiation, or getting something from someone, I know how best to twist words and make the person believe that whatever comes out of the negotiation is in the best interest of everyone even though deep down I know it is more of the best interest of myself than anyone. It does not make me cunny, it's just how I have positioned my mind to believe that I can get whatever I want, and can have things my way if only I choose to. I also believe this belief and thought, comes with me being a woman, I kinda believe that everyone has the "power of a woman".

To be able to have things their own way, and that is why it beats my imagination when I see most women get themselves trapped in most critical situations they are not supposed to be and are even confused about everything, especially situations they are not supposed to be or find themselves in as a woman. Apart from the fact that many are born with the skills of negotiation, while others learn how to go about it, I think as women, we have a higher ability to negotiate and get whatever we want better.
