Hi Im Ted, Im a rookie to the forum. Im opening a cab company, I am non LE. I am a father, active in my sons school, active in our church etc. I wanted to be a cop years ago but then I learned about the job. Arresting idiots only to have half of them back on the street without so much as a slap on the wrist. I was a cabbie in the Bay area, and was shot point blank with a .380 in an attempted robbery in my cab. Law enforcement did all they could, but wasnt able to catch the guy. Anyway thats a quick summary of myself.
I thank law enforcement agencies because I know a lot of cops and exactly what they do. Patrol, arrest and then spend the next 2-4 hours doing paperwork. Its the paperwork that detered me from the job. Atleast I am in a safe area, and I feel secure letting my 6 year old play outside. I live next to our local police dept. Ive known the Chief since he was a rookie. Met him almost 20 years ago. Stay safe, and I am pretty busy so Ill check in when I can and say hello
