My main concern is that im already 35 so wondering about that kind of change this late in life.
I talked with an assistant chief this afternoon and we briefly talked about all the politics and crap and he said that the more rural departments have been shielded from that. I live in Richfield.
No problems with background check, i have my ffl, sot, nfa items, been through bci checks for when we worked on schools etc....
Our business got effed last year due to the lockdowns. We mainly do playgrounds, pavilions and park construction for schools and cities. Since all that stuff got shutdown the projects got canceled. Things are picking up now but i can't find employees now. I'm really getting tired of having to do field work, sales, back office, responding to emails, following up with subs, suppliers etc... it's physically and mentally draining.
Not saying police work is easy, but simpler. I've always had law enforcement in the back of my mind but just continued my contracting business.
