FTO: Your Field Training Officer is tasked with showing you the ropes and making sure you can swing from them. At the beginning of your “Field Training” you should expect your FTO to be doing a lot of showing, explaining, directing, teaching and leading by example. The longer you've been in "Field Training" the more you should be doing the job without prompting from your FTO. Your FTO will also be observing, evaluating and documenting how well or not you learn and perform the duties of a Jail Guard. Your FTO is not your friend. Be friendly but always professional toward your FTO. All FTO's expect you to become Mini Me's of them. They expect you to perform everything like they do. If you aren't capable of becoming Mini Me's they will work to get you flushed into another line of work. It's not personal.
