Not yet for me. About to hit the 14th year mark. Good job surviving to all those that have made it that long. When I say survive I mean from bad guys and admin.Where'd you learn that, Cheech? Drug school?Comment

30 Or More Years On The Job?
My first paid cop job was March 1980. I was 19 years old at the time. My oldest son is now 19 years old. Fortunately, he is no longer interested in police work. I can't imagine him, or maybe anybody in this day and age, doing cop work at 19 year old. I suppose it is hypocritical of me to say that since I am basically saying do as I say, not as I do (or did). The flips side is police work has changed.Comment

Well by some estimates then I guess you could say I got 39 in now.
( not really sure why
) Retired from full-time then immediately (and still am ) went to Reserves for a variety of reasons. My agency looks at it as still time on, so I guess it's fair?
