25 and had no plans of ever moving and didn't.
Apparently, I'm supposed to be more angry about what Mitt Romney does with his money than what Barack & Michelle Obama do with mine

22 at time of hire, worked 2 departments part-time, quit those and moved to NC where I worked in the jail at the county sheriff's office, moved and now again working for two other depts part-time.
I do not plan on staying as they are small and I'd like to go to a bigger dept."Knowing what you stand for limits what you fall for"

22 at my first agency, 25 at my second. Went from a municipal agency to a state agency.

20 at my first agency. 25 (a month shy of 26) when I started here. Hopefully nothing will force me to leave here (like layoffs).

22 at first agency (city) retired at 42, went directly to state for three years, then to current (county) at 45.
If the economy didn't suck so bad, I'd probably be fully retired right now, but I want to make sure the kids and grandkids are taken well care of so I keep on truck'n and doing what Trip is by sinking as much as possible into my 457k while units are lower in price.Last edited by Cat_Doc; 07-20-10 at 01:33 PM.
