Most large to huge ports like Philadelphia and San Ysidro have many different shift combinations depending on circumstances. Airports tend to have more specific and non-standard shifts due to the predictability of flights.
Standard shifts most places hover around the 0000-0800, 0800-1600,...Last edited by merlin436; 11-28-2019, 10:21 PM. -
If it comes to it I don't imagine that liberals will have a hard time getting guns. Historically, leftist terrorists in the US like the SLA, BLA, the Weathermen, etc have all found ways to get themselves guns. Plus, much like drugs, humans and other forms of smuggling, the left is all ready in bed with...Last edited by merlin436; 11-28-2019, 10:08 PM. -
Former military recieve a blanket age waiver...if that helps. -
Aren't you a CBP applicant? If you are talking of CBP Officer, the new gun is a Glock 19 9MM. The current gun is the HK P2000 in 40 caliber. The new gun has been rolled out at the OFO academy.
Supposedly, the new Glock is ambidextrous. The P2000 is also largely ambidextrous. The Glock...Leave a comment:

Drive. As Showtime said, they will pay out for the cheaper option of either mileage or the cost of airfare...which, guessing that you'd probably have to fly from Syracuse and taxi each way, airfare will likely cost the most. -
Reapply at will. There is no wait time for a simple turning down a job offer. -
The Office of Training and Development wanted to streamline the movement between the LEO component of CBP. They tried to have reciprocity between equivalent training and have " mini-academies" and On-the-Job training, when needed, to facilitate movement within CBP. OfO jumped onto the bandwagon.... -
Zero reciprocity. Full academy with OC. Taser exposure is optional in OFO. If you want to avoid another ride there, simply elect not to participate this go around. -

It's interesting in how much this thread and it's extended history have in common with the currently running Civil War thread and it's extended history.
The past influences the present and the ideals of old extremists and domestic terrorists never really leave us. They just get repackaged...Leave a comment:

I'll say one thing typically underappreciated and not taught in the academy...learn your port locality. Learn the local towns and cities within a day's drive of your port. Study local maps. Learn what the nearby attractions are and where those attractions are located. Study what brings traffic through...Last edited by merlin436; 11-15-2019, 07:43 AM. -
Jim Jones is an interesting reference.
One might think that he was a man decades ahead of his time. Put Jimmy into current times and he probably becomes much more of a leftist icon today. His problems fitting in with the crowd in the midwest probably would be much less today. His move...Leave a comment:

If you're fit enough today and you plan on staying fit enough for the next 20 years, no...I don't think 49 is too old...especially in the right setting in the right port. -

The War of Liberal Aggression
Pelosi's War
The Leftist Rebellion...Leave a comment:
