    I'm retired and it was a good career for me. I very much miss the job but not the reality of the job. Everyday it seems like, people are becoming more violent. No matter how you settle a situation even within regulations there's always somebody at the top that's second guessing our actions or worried about the political ramifications. My hat is off to all the good LEOs out there these days.

    I rate Prime as my absolute preferred carrier to seek employment when I'm ready.

    Seems like LEO's are told to basically stand back and watch as the bad guys get away now because of the political ramifications. When the police are told to back off, more vigilantes will come that don't have a higher "boss" telling them no.. they just face trouble themselves or lawsuit.. this causes anarchy! It's bad when even the "authority" can't do anything anymore.. Plus yes, people are starting to care less and less about law and even if they get tased or worse.. they'll scream police brutality and win now days.. Hard life for an LEO!

    I am also coming to that class and I also am coming from a Law Enforcement background. I'm POST Certified and there is just no jobs around here so I'm trying my hand at trucking. Maybe I'll see you there.

    By the time you add up all of the extra work you put in for that salary... its minimum wage - and then you get your pink slip the next time the economy goes south.

    Yeah. Cube hell.
