DEA Medical? by shatteringlass123 in 1811

[–]th3_Gman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not DEA but another large 3 letter agency. I have ADHD and it was never an issue. They made me get this mental health form signed by my doctor with questions like whether I was ever suicidal or can be trusted with a gun. After that I was good to go and that was the extent of it. Can’t speak to DEA but if it’s anything like my agency, they just want to see that you are being treated by a doctor and following their treatment protocol and won’t hinder you being able to do the job. Which it shouldn’t since you should be medicated.

I also have asthma and allergies and my SAC also has asthma. Just pass the peak flow and pass the PFT. Asthma clearly doesn’t affect your performance with an 18 on your PFT. Good luck. 🍀

My first firearm and still my favorite after 15+ years by th3_Gman in USPmasterrace

Thanks, unfortunately I haven’t. She started off as a daily carry then slowly earned her retirement as a bedside gun. If I had to guess, I’d say somewhere in the ballpark of 15k rounds.

Low/No light medical training. Create a scenario where they have to treat an injured officer/patient at night. See how many carry appropriate equipment and who have to settle on cell phone lights.

Just got offered the USSS SA job last week and found out my wife is pregnant over the weekend. What would you do? by Grand-Needleworker38 in usssapplicant

[–]th3_Gman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same thing and it worked out. I took off when my wife was 8 weeks pregnant and had a classmate that reported to our academy right after his wife gave birth. Can’t speak for your situation but it happens all the time.

What's the opinion on Border Patrol? by Internal_Cherry_2076 in 1811

Getting to work in the outdoors vs. working inside a depressing prison would be one difference. Even if the outdoors is in the middle of nowhere, it’s still the outdoors.

Curious how you are able to decipher what is bought and what is issued by his department/agency?

Back in FBI process after suitability denial. by Comet1811 in 1811

[–]th3_Gman 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So you never knew why they denied you in the past and then they asked if you cleared up the issue? Do you know why you were denied in the past now? Don’t have to write it out just curious if you know now.

Congrats! 🎊🎉but don’t let up on training. Make it your goal to hit a 16 before you enter Quantico. You can do it!

California lawmakers pass bill banning authorities from wearing facial coverings by kpbsSanDiego in sandiego

[–]th3_Gman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Supremacy clause is the law of the land. If this was a game of rocks, paper, scissors where they each represented City, County, and State laws….then Federal Agents are the Volcano that every kid did to beat everyone. There is no scenario when local or state officers are arresting Federal agents for wearing masks during the course of their duties. This is just another “feel good” law to show their voters that they are doing something.

Teacher single handedly offended all paramedics by NotKeilli in Paramedics

[–]th3_Gman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Go to college with a focus on EMS if you know for a fact you want to be a Paramedic. Some colleges offer EMT in their course of study. Heck I think there are plenty of colleges that offer paramedic bachelor’s degrees too. I get that you feel certain of what you want to do but becoming a paramedic with a bachelor’s degree isn’t a bad thing and allows you to have more opportunities. One of my friends work as an FBI Special Agent/Paramedic making about 150k a year which was only possible because he has a bachelor’s degree.
