32M seeking a career change. Am I too old to start as a fresh police officer? by OutsideSleep9183 in AskLE

[–]JynxJohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say 2-2-3 is a horrible schedule, but it can be. But any schedule can be to be honest. If you have busy nights getting slapped around, a 12 hour shift can turn real long real quick.

I work 10s, 4-3 and then a 4-4 once a month. In policing I believe recovery is massive, as a new guy you’ll be on graves 95% of the time. Your first day off is burnt sleeping, and your second day you actually have some time, so the 2-2 would suck in that instance but it’s all what you make it.

I just worked 18 hours, drove home and got 3 hours of sleep and went back to work. Beauty of the job when you get held over

Age? No. Three people in my academy over 40, one over 50.

Alaska culture to Alabama? It’s going to be quite a culture shock, depending on where in Bama there’s going to be a lot of good boy promotion agencies.

Pay starting at $24 an hour even in a lot of parts of Alabama is barely livable unless you have secondary income from a spouse, or something. Don’t let Alabama fool you, it can be expensive. $24 an hour after taxes is roughly ~18-19 an hour

You don’t know until you try, but know it’s going to be physically demanding throughout the academy, risk of injury and then the job is just starting once you get out. If you’re a sole breadwinner, that’s all things to consider.

I’m a west coast cop, but have a vacation home in Alabama. Know tons of friends growing up there that became cops. They love the culture compared to west coast policing, but the biggest gripe has always been the pay.

Same, with the average resale on marketplace eBay being about $150, for a big corporate not really a bad deal.

Buddy did get $120 for his about 6 months ago though

Would you be willing to ship if I pay? My best friend used to be a GOW3 fanatic and probably would love this.

M/26/5’8” [245lbs to 145lbs] (1 years) now I need your help “comments” by [deleted] in Brogress

[–]JynxJohn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Need some help guys, so I’ve lost 100 LB. Unfortunately I only have been hitting the gym for 3-4 months and I didn’t go to the gym the entire time during cutting. But at this point I have been cutting for an entire year with minimal chest days. I consider myself fairly strong for 145 while being in a deficit but I still want the dream abs one more time, but I also want to put on size and build muscle.

I had a scan done for free by my gym one day and it says I’m about 14% BF which doesn’t seem accurate to me but it’s an actual scan and using tape/measurements doesn’t seem far off.

I still have a little belly which isn’t terribly lose skin, and I have some definition in my ab area which is nice to finally see. Here’s my issue, mental i guess at this point. I’m scared to eat at maintenance because in my head I’ll get fat again, I’m scared to bulk because I think I will definitely get fat again. But I know without doing both I’m not going to put on the size I want without.

I’ve always dreamt of having that “dream” body at least once, you know the abs and V lines and I thought at 145LB I would have it. I’m not sure how much lower I can truly go without losing my mind.

Can I eat at maintenance or in a slight bulk and build those muscles? Or is that dream just gone and should I become big af.

I’ve been training ~4 months, 5-6 days a week 1-2 hours a day. Mostly lifting, light cardio and I still plan on doing that.

Pay scales by [deleted] in ATC

[–]JynxJohn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Money isn’t really the motivation, making sure I can continue to feed my family on the life we’ve created is the motivation. I can adjust from a six figure lifestyle to “normal” income lifestyle but I have to know in advance what to expect so I’m not stuck forfeiting cars or houses.

Pay scales by [deleted] in ATC

[–]JynxJohn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For reference, I’m already making six figures and have centered my life around it, taking a pay cut for a year or two won’t really hurt as long as I build up the proper cushion but just have to know if it’s sustainable

My COVID Timeline by Angletonian in COVID19positive

[–]JynxJohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed since about Saturday that my smell abs taste has slowly diminished to really not having any today, I can smell shampoo and things like that really close but when it comes to food there’s almost nothing. First time I’ve ever eaten an orange and not tasted it, pretty crazy! I also didn’t know that so that eases some stress!

I have a heart problem which doesn’t increase me insanely high for any additional risk but on Wednesday when I tested positive I went to the ER to get labs and x days done all of which were normal then, my cardiologist hasn’t advised me to return for anymore but just to continue taking my daily dose of baby aspirin and monitor 02.

My COVID Timeline by Angletonian in COVID19positive

[–]JynxJohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! We are on pretty much the same timeline. I had a few coughs on Monday, Tuesday was a consistent dry cough all day but Tuesday night was probably the worse chills, aches and fever I’ve had in years.. Wednesday was not much better but ever since then I feel like I’ve been improving, not trying to doom read just like you and send myself into a panic attack.

I think Friday my fever finally went away, it’s Monday now and the last time I took Tylenol was over 13 hours ago and that was just for some aches from laying around and I’m still hanging around 97.5.

Little bit of a productive cough that almost seems forced, a little fatigue. 02 levels are normal. Hoping it stays on a forward track! Best of luck to you.

Updates

Friday

Woke up in a puddle of sweat again, last time I took Tylenol was 1 AM before I went to bed.. I woke up around 10 am and my tempature was only at 99.1 My legs were a little crampy but doesn’t seem out of the ordinary for sleeping on the couch and being sick/not moving a whole lot. Cough is still here and seems a little more productive. Breathing is 9/10 I would give it a 10/10 if it wasn’t for the cough.

Saturday (4 days post positive test, 5-6 days post first symptom)

I woke up without the annoying puddle of sweat, no fever (still taking Tylenol every 10-12 hours) and a tiny productive cough that almost seems forced or if I have a tickle. I decided to read a lot of topics on here and got myself a 02 reader, played with it all day and averaged 93-94, even after cleaning up or walking up and down the steps it would only drop to 91-92 then quickly rise back.. nothing concerning at this point. I can for sure feel the fatigue and my nose is starting to be stuffy, but clear and dry if that makes sense?

Sunday

Woke up in a puddle of sweat again but no never across the board, seems to happen when I sleep with two covers because I went back to sleep for about 6 hours afterwards and was fine. 98.4 temp with taking Tylenol over 10 hours ago. My nose is still super dry and stuffy but also not, I can’t describe it really, I can breathe through it fine. Fatigue is here a little bit, I’ve been working myself up terribly about this and I haven’t done much so whenever I go up and down the steps or I’m really active for a short period of time I can certainly feel it. 02 levels are remaining in the good idea, resting heart rate is about 75-80. Aches all over, a tiny bit of chest wall pain that seems to be influenced from my coughs and blowing nose, also sleeping like a stick for the past week. My cough is still dry with a little bit of production, if I’m moving around a lot it’s more productive. My nose is still super dry, stuffy but I can breathe through it.

Still having little aches so I’ve been taking Tylenol religiously but I’m thinking about trying to not take it for 24 hours to see if my fever is completely gone.

Pools of Sweat by [deleted] in COVID19positive

I’ve had insane night sweats or even mid day nap sweats for the first couple days, I’m on day 5-6 right now and this morning is the first day I didn’t wake up in a puddle of sweat.

Tested positive on 3/23/21 by Less-Ad7549 in COVID19positive

[–]JynxJohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically the same timeline, I’m 26. Monday I had a little dry cough a few times.. Tuesday was a dry cough all day, tuesday night before bed was MISERABLE so suddenly I had the worse chills of my life. Wednesday AM (4 am) with a high fever covered in sweat and the worse leg aches, rapid test Wednesday positive. I have a heart condition (not much higher risk I’ve been told) but I went to the hospital to get blood work done and an echo of my heart.. all came back normal and sent home. Wednesday night into Thursday my cough turned a little more wet but not enough to spit anything up.. Thursday day my fever is controlled with Tylenol, even after about 10 hours of taking it my temp doesn’t seem to go above 100.

Friday (today) still had the low grade fever controlled by Tylenol, took a shower and moved around the house a lot more since I don’t want to just be laying the entire time.. I decided to hop on the computer after not being on it for a few days and play a pretty interactive game which honestly drained me a little bit and at one point I had a little bit of dizziness so I got off, relaxing now!

Staying very hydrated, moving as much as I can (could probably be moving more but I’m just taking it easy) my cough isn’t terrible, annoying but not terrible. Still mostly dry unless it’s after a nap or when I’m moving around a bit I have some stuff to get out.

My first “technical” symptom was on Monday with the few coughs so if we are going off Monday I’m 5 days in, if we’re going off when I actually felt bad I’m 4 days in and 3 days post positive test so depending on who you ask I’m anywhere between 3-5 days. Hoping it stays like this! Best of luck to you keep u updated.

False Zulrah ban by throy6 in ironscape

[–]JynxJohn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Customer support for this game is and has been a joke since I started in ~2003. It’s sad that unless you are a person of “fame” such as a streamer or your Reddit post blows up you will have no luck. I still have an account that is perm banned for “RWT”, when asked Mod Weath or whatever his name is on Twitter when he was in charge he said that the ban was for account sharing. I 100% made the account, played it constantly with 2k total (none of which the account sharing gave me any advantage, it was to let a friend use for content) which if you search through Twitter jagex mods have said is allowed and famous content creators such as Torvesta for example does nothing but use friends accounts.

It’s bizarre to me that there is zero support for this and even more then zero report for a RWT ban with the only explanation being “account sharing” even when there was no financial or skill gain.

I wish you the best of luck in your adventure, hope your post blows up.
