I passed the peace officer course and worked as a reserve officer in New Mexico for about a year.It was extremely crazy working without backup or translators(as 95 percent of the suspects were hispanic and spoke no english) so I left the department.

I know how that is first hand ,where I worked as a investigator we had lots of the Vietnam war refugee's and not speaking English made it real hard to take care of there problems or arrest them .

I've been an Officer for about a year and a half so far and I love it.

 

[TexasT/A]

I'm trying, does that count?

And on that note, I have to go in front of the interview board next month, anyone have any tips?

 

[300shooter]

TexasT/A
well that counts , and on a board be honest and answer all there questions and be very professional. I know you will do great and welcome to Law Enforcement its a calling not just a Job.

Carney you have just started out , you have many years to go ,I tell this to all get as many schools as you or your Dept. can afford and work hard.
A LEO is not a job its a Calling and few have they calling .

Good luck and always Watch your 6

[Slotback]

On the clock for 17 years. I just moved over to our "Special Services" Division. Now I drive a SUV and serve papers. Very low key. And I do wear my vest.

Sure it's hot to wear, but it is relatively inexpensive insurance.
