Mount Vernon PD 2010 January Academy

[sc87]

i think 1 day had said academy pay is like 1100 every two weeks

[ryanpax]

Is that before or after taxes ?

[options open]

i'd hope its after... otherwise you'd only be making like 25 grand a year

[sc87]

dont quote me, but i believe its after..

[ryanpax]

The waiting game is killing me but I hope all of you make it. I have a few back up plans, I found an old buddy of mine who went through the last westchester academy we're about the same size so if I'm in he would give me his academy gear..... I actually heard they were looking to hire a bit more than 18 people since uncle Sam was generous with the grant money.

[sc87]

thats good man, back up plans always help

and did you think that is true?

[ryanpax]

It might be accurate. but I guess no one will find out until the calls start from hopefully Monday on. I came this far I was laid off from my last job, and this is my life's dream. I found a website also for those of you who make it in. I'll send the link to your in boxes if asked. you can get used police equipment. Hopefully I will see you guys on the 11th

you guys wont get the call until the day before the swearing in ceremony so i wouldn't expect calls until the earliest on tuesday, idk when swearing in ceremony is but the last one was the wednesday before the academy which stared on monday.

Silly question but I buddy of mine has given me a duty holster in case I get in I was wondering what is the authorized duty weapon for Mt. Vernon ?

still nothing....the date might have gotten pushed back

[sc87]

nothing either, i could have sworn one of the Lt. at the interview said the swearing in would be on the 8th, but then that would be such a last minute notice to get the equiptment, so im not sure..

[nymrh]

yea figured swearing in would be wed or thurs latest..

[ryanpax]

still

Nothing keeping my fingers crossed

[sc87]
