I would only if it's the official name of the police department.  My research showed a PD with that name in Mo and MN.

If he'd said "with the local police department," or "the police department in St. Joseph, I wouldn't cap.

Would you capitalize the words "police department" in this instance?

A. I'm a detective with the St. Joseph police department.

TIA

Holy. Moly.  That's foul.

I'm a semicolon girl, so I like how you have it.

Thank you, Victoria.

I have another question.  How would you punctuate this one?

A. No, I guess. I mean, I would answer her back: Stop; leave me alone; no; what don't you get; OMG; things like that.

TIA :-)

Webster's says yes.

Would you hyphenate "garden variety" in this instance?

MR. JONES: I don't remember, Candy. Is this a garden-variety emotional distress claim?

TIA

What about this one:

A. I'm talking about profit, minus expenses, freight -- that sort of thing.

Yes, Victoria, I have been in what I like to call a "Goldilocks" pattern for a few months.  I'm not so busy I'm having to stay up all night.  I'm paying the bills.  I like it. :-)  I don't like it when it is too busy or too slow.  It is rare to have this kind of a work pattern in this profession.  I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts.

And you, Janiece?  Keeping busy?

I'm doing well.  I've been busier this quarter than I imagined possible during what's normally my famine time.  I'm enjoying the feast.

I just wish I could work while my body sleeps. :)
