My Daughter is ex-State Police and although she currently has a good graduate position in the Public Service, she is in the final selections phase with the Federal Police.
When that is what you want to do, other jobs just don't measure up.
All the best with your career.
Thank you for the kind words. I can't wait until I get hired by an agency and hopefully in the future become a federal officer. Congrats to your daughter, I hope nothing but the best in her new position!!

I know, when I noticed that I laughed inside. It usually happens with my last name since its complex but "Sergio"? Really? Lol

Congratulations!

I'm not sure how the training is in Florida, but my fiance went through a prominent police academy in California almost 10 months ago. (She's a Deputy Sheriff working in a rough jail now). Prepare for some very hard work and heavy training. You will know if you are ready for this significant lifetime commitment fairly quickly. I wish you the best of luck in this noble and very much needed profession.

Beautiful watch.

Well I heard the training here is somewhat tough but it's nothing I can't do (hopefully lol). I hope I enjoy it and stick with it as this has been the only thing that's been on my mind for a while! Congrats to your fiance for being a Deputy Sheriff! I thank her for her service as well

Congratulations on your acceptance.

One thing I've learned about letters of acceptance is that once the party's over, it's time to stand by, because all hell is about to break loose and it will be several weeks before you know which end is up.

It doesn't matter what the letter of acceptance if for, it has always been for me like waking up in a new universe completely naive and having to learn everything need to survive--yesterday.

I'm sure you will do fine and you will be a better man for it.

Good luck and Godspeed.

Oh, nice watch.
