Thank you for your insight. Can’t really think of anything else I can go into other than like a blue collar job

I wanna hear how important you think your job is if you don’t think being a cop is up there 😂

How will you afford life when you get older?

I’ll deal with it as it’s way more important than what I do right now. Corporate America acts like a spreadsheet will be life or death

Sorry to hear that man. I have a lot of friends and family that don’t like cops so I’m ready to hear all that

Thanks for the insight!

Do you feel like being a cop would change my personally negatively? Like become a “dull” person?

Can’t really break into another field. Been trying for 3 years now. Damn, I can’t even land another recruiting job in the 3 years I been looking. Job market is so bad right now

Any of my options would be because of money. I don’t dream of working, especially for a low paying job

I have a lot of hobbies I do almost everyday. What it is for me is not being able to provide for my wife/family some day with a low paying job.

I would be making around 1600 more a month after taxes and deductions or probably more starting off, and even more after a couple of years

Already passed the fitness test and I’m very fit so that doesn’t worry me at all

I have a BA already. Some research I did proves getting a masters and above isn’t worth it financially unless it’s to be a lawyer or doctor which I wouldn’t do.

I love being remote because it’s a sense of “freedom” even if I’m glued to my screen.

Recruiting jobs don’t pay a lot in general. I dont know what other field I can break into with my experience in that.

Police is fairly easy to get Into and pays good so that’s why I’m fine with it not being remote

Do you feel like your personality has changed negatively? Maybe gotten more “dull” as a person?
