Similarly, within their profession, they have faced exceedingly high expectations. They were criticized by the public for being superior and not catering to the masses needs. There were complaints about not allowing the groups to take pictures of police vehicles, and they were accused of being unsympathetic.

It’s just a picture, why are you making a big fuss?

During an explosion or a fire, they were unable to enter due to safety concerns. However, the crowd implored them to rush into the fire without proper protective measures, arguing that failure to do so would label them as heartless and that they did not deserve to wear their uniforms…

Even when some of their colleagues took breaks and smoked, when photographed, they faced severe criticism.

It was as if they are expected not to smoke, not to take breaks, and not to prioritize their families…

And he was not the only one—many of his comrades and colleagues in similar frontline positions unexpectedly received the recognition that morning.

They initially suspected that it might be a superficial gesture concocted by higher-ups to create a positive image or something similar.

However, as Johnny read through the document titled “Caring for Comrades in Frontline Posts,” he discovered numerous practical measures listed within it. The document even included the well-being of frontline personnel as one of the criteria for evaluating supervisors.
