But if you ask him to choose, he definitely doesn’t want to. The mix, the variety, that is what makes working in the city so much fun, he says. Nowadays the police are having more and more difficulty getting officers for the big cities, but in all those 46 years Hennie has not for a moment considered saying goodbye to his own city and going somewhere quiet in Schalkwijk or Kockengen. “That’s where you really have to look for work. Just give me the busiest shift possible. I like the hustle and bustle. Just put me somewhere in the hustle and bustle and I will arrange it for you.”
