We will post a new story each week or so and if we use your story we will send you a free GoGirl and GoGirl T-Shirt.
Enjoy Cricket's GoGirl Story:
I am a retired undercover police office and let me tell you the only thing I had to use back in the 90's was a plastic cup and a funnel. It worked but it was a pain to use in small enclosed spaces like I was so often found myself having to use it. Oh, how I wished I had a Go-Girl back then!!!
I remember my first experience of being in a Ford Mustang while watching a house that we were waiting on a search warrant. I was assigned to one end of the street and my partner to the other end. After about ten hours it was mandatory to use the cup and funnel. I had used numerous times an empty milk jug and and funnel while in the surveillance van. But these small quarters required a smaller catching device. My biggest mistake was what I did with the urine after I was done. I didn't like the thought of keeping it in the car with me so when I was sure there was no activity (about 4:30 am) I poured it out the driver's side window where it landed in a grassy area. About 30 minutes later I watched a man in his P.J.'s and Robe open his garage door and head out with his dog for an early morning stroll. It took the dog all but about 30 seconds to come running up next to my vehicle to smell the ground right below my window. So, I learned a valuable lesson from that mistake. Keep the urine in the car until I can dispose of it properly!
Cricket we wish we could have been there for you too. Talk about an exciting job! There is a GoGirl and GoGirl T-shirt on its way to you now.
