Position Accepted: Officially Hired

Earlier this week, I received a phone call from my preferred agency officially offering me the position of Police Officer with their city.

I currently feel like I'm on cloud-nine and I'm still trying to get used to the fact that I'm actually a police officer now. I will be sworn-in in about 2 weeks on the same day that I start my new career.

That one, seemingly simple phone call was worth all the nerveracking days.... all the fingernail-biting, all the hopes and realizations of the possibility of failure. It was all worth it.

I now sit at my current job thinking about what is to come in the next few weeks. This is a job that I've wanted since I was a kid (what boy doesn't want to be a cop when they're young?), and now I'm finally realizing that it is happening to me.

So, after all the months of traveling to this city to test, interview, test, test, and test, I am going to be reaping the benefits. This goes to show that if you keep pushing and trying with all your heart, you WILL accomplish your dreams... whether that dream includes law enforcement or not.

I will keep this blog updated with what kind of training I go through in the months to come. Also, don't forget to check out my main blog HERE for further updates.
