If everyone who is stopped by an officer calls, good or bad, the supervisor will not be able to do his job. A shift supervisor may have 8-10 or more patrolmen under his purview. If each one only made 3 stops a day, that is 30 calls or emails that the supervisor has to handle.
I would say if a LEO does an OUTSTANDING job or a bad job then call. My view is if I am not getting calls, my team members are doing their jobs at average or above. Complements are reserved for exceptional performance and complaints are for poor performance.
