My fault, i shouldve mentioned 102k was top pay after now 12 steps, when i was hired it was only 7 steps. Starting, 1st step is around $40k.. but we have guys with less than 5yrs on take the sgt’s exam, get made and jump all the way up to $117k
NJ county CO chiming in.. took the police / corrections test straight out of HS. Scored fairly well, was offered a county CO position before anywhere else. Decided to take it. Seen some **** that you probably wont see in other professions. However, the salary (current contract is $102,000 before...
Ive been thinking about this scenario for a while now. A little background, im a cop in NJ. I made 110k last year with overtime. I have a HS diploma and 62 college credits. I hate my dept. i would like to switch over to another dept but that means i drop back to starting pay which is around 50k...
Finally decided to learn how to ride this year. Took a MSF course and got my license. Decided on a 2013 honda cbr500r as my first bike to learn on. Put a few 100mi on it and im already thinking i shouldve gotten a 600 instead
Id rather die trying than being at someone else's mercy.. Btw, most law enforcement officers qualify 2x a year with their department. For most officers that's the only range time they'll see all year. I know plenty of average citizens at the range that are better trained in firearms & tactics...
County corrections officer in central NJ. My dept has a ridiculous amount of overtime. Freeholders would rather pay us overtime than hire new people giving them benefits, pensions, etc. Ill have the option to retire @ 45yrs old with 65% pension + benefits. A NJ law enforcement career is the way...
Graduated in '06 with an associate's degree in criminal justice from local county college. Got in law enforcement, starting pay 45k. 7 years later im @ top pay of 96k, last year i made 140k with overtime
I agree on dropping the money on a good lawyer that focuses on DUI's. My father was facing a DUI but got downgraded to a wreckless driving due his lawyer finding a mistake the trooper made (also didnt hurt im "on the job").
I agree with the lack of stopping power of the .380 but im looking for something to carry when wearing basketball shorts. Winter time i carry everything from a full size 1911 to a glock 21 with a surefire x300 ultra but summer time clothing limits my options. Had a springfield xds45 but ended up...
Anybody try out the glock 42 yet? I carry a glock 30S off duty but looking to add a pocket pistol in my collection. Not a big fan of the .380, but my local LE shop has the glock 42 for $360 for LEO's
Top pay in my dept in NJ is $110,000 before overtime, took me 7 years from my date of hire to reach that. At the time all you needed was 60 college credits or 2 years military. Now the new guys start at $36,000, need a bachelor's degree, 2 years military OR already police certified and itll take...
