I’m about to hang it up after almost 12 years. I’ve been hired for a special agent position with a large state investigative agency (basically a state-level FBI) and will be starting soon. I will be working narcotics, so I’ll be right at home.
I’m excited, but somewhat sad too— I enjoy working for my current agency, I have a lot of good friends here, have had a lot of good times, been able to work dope nearly my entire career, made sergeant, SWAT, firearms instructor, etc. I will definitely miss being the “real police”. But, in the end, this is a huge opportunity for me and I think it will be best for my family in the long run.
Also— I’ll soon be adding a bunch of you local guys to my ignore list.
