Possible Career change (again)

[YankeeMan]

I spent 30 years in law enforcement and loved it. I could have made more in private industry, but I loved the work. Also, my retirement check comes in each month, you can't say that about several major corporations now.

If you have a chance to get certified in Fl and can get on with a department, I would do that. I am originally from NY and keep in mind that many of the northern and New England states have civil service. In most ot them you have to live there for at least one year before you are even eligible to take the exam and then it is about a one year process to get hired. Also, many have a 35 year old cap for hiring, minus up to 6 years of military time.

I am now the CJ Chair at a Community College here and I enjoy the interaction with the students. With your EMS background, I agree that you would be a real find for any law enforcement agency.

Good luck!
