Usss ud

[Eli Manning]

Good afternoon everyone,

The US Secret Service Uniformed Division seems to have a high turnover rate and seem to hire often. This seems to be labeled as an undesirable place to work. Can anyone tell me what their day to day duties are like ? Also, why do they seem to have such a high turn over rate ?

I imagine you run into a lot of people that say "Don't you Know who I am?", "I'll have your job!" and the old standby " I'm personal friends with....." insert POTUS, Congressman, Senator and Director of the Secret Service. As they try to skirt security procedures.

Most of the positions are in DC, the duties are mainly static security. But, there are a lot of different unit opportunities for the UD, don't let the turnover discourage you. At least it will stop the 6C clock.

I could imagine there is a lot of that BNWS

I’m considering applying Kraut. Have you applied ?

heh, no Eli...I am on the tail end of my career. Good luck to you!

I would rather deal with the problems I listed above than deal with answering calls in the current climate. I applied to the pentagon police in 2008 when I was able to retire. I wanted to take the job(there was no age limit) but my wife wasn't ready to relocate.
