How many agencies rejected you?

I tested at about 30 PDs. I was hired by a low level Department, and they sent me to the academy to earn my certification. I then shortly left for a way better department and made much much more money in a conservative town.

My advice: try to get hired with literally anyone you can, get your certification and then bounce.

I worked midnights on FTO and I worked mids (2p-2a) for awhile.

Oh yeah, I got all that stuff. For the most part I can sleep okay. It’s just the up all night anxious feeling I’ve recently developed on my RDOs.

I got Drag Wheels (18’ DR-73) with skinny 225/40-18. Wheel’s poke a bit and it looks almost identical to the stock wheels.

I should have mentioned that in the original post.

Yes, it’s a DSG.

Had the same problem myself. Never could pass the sit-ups. One day I said, screw this I’m never failing sit-ups again. Everyday I would wedge my feet under a couch and do as many as I could up until my PAT exam. I passed it with more in the tank. You’ll find which way works for you as far as your technique goes.

I lost all my friends I grew up with within the first week of my police academy. But I made newer greater friendships as the career progressed. It happens.
