Hi everyone,
Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm from NC and have lived here my whole life. I've recently started looking seriously at becoming a police officer(although I've thought about it for years now)
I feel now is a good time in my life to start (I'm 28 with a wife and 2 kids), I'm now in better physical condition than I have been in 10 years. I started lifting seriously and running more than a year ago and believe I now have the stamina and strength to excel in training. I've also kept my nose clean and haven't even had a speeding ticket for almost 10 years now.
I am actually in the process of writing a cover letter to go with my resume to be sent to my local police dept. (small town) as they recently posted an opening. I've been reading alot of the info on this site lately and seems like there's lots of good people here with good advice.
Thanks
J.

Welcome aboard. Kudos for you for keeping in shape prior to receiving the hiring letter; that will help you out a lot.

There is a LOT of advice here for the looking/asking. Use it to your advantage. I wish I had such a resource in the mid 80's !

GRYDE001 , note the caption under RemG's name? That should be enough warning for you that he has absolutely no grasp on reality.
Be wary of the RemyG. ;).........................
