I just took the Fairfax County Police exam this weekend. think i did very well on it, also had the first interview and the guy seemed interested. i find out how i did in a couple weeks. if i did as well as i think i did, i'll be driving down for a polygraph and the physical exam in a month or so. wish me luck, i'll keep you guys updated.

i probably wouldnt even live in fairfax, i hear its expensive (close to cost of living on Long Island)
i would live outside fairfax. also i hear the problem with fairfax is alot of important people live there. so everyone drops names of important people to get out of tickets and what not.
anyway Ed will you be down to meet up?

its funny you say that. the detective i was talking to said he lives in prince william county cuz its much cheaper and a close drive. i figure i would get a small apt. the hours are awsome.
6 month academy - 10 hour work days , Tuesday-Friday. so i would go back to LI on the weekends
after the academy hours - 11.5 hour shifts, 2 week schedule.... work monday-tuesday, wednesday-thursday off, work Friday-sunday, monday-tuesday off, work wednesday-thursday, friday-sunday off!
i would get to go back to LI every other weekend.

Fairfax is the greatest place on Earth, no matter what Ed says. Good luck and I hope everything works out. There's over 1 million people in Fairfax county so there is plenty of unimportant people to pull over as well.
Yes, living in Prince William county can be cheaper, but there is a reason for it.

lol, i may be a licensed Merchant Marine officer, but i've always been trying to do law enforcement. if i can get a job in Fairfax as an officer, it may help me if i get called for Suffolk County. my main goal is to do Marine Division. although Fairfax's marine division has 4 officers that work 6 months a year and the other 6 months they are regular patrolmen.

Speaking of law enforcement...I just watched Super Troopers last night.
You gonna grow a mustache like that, Justin?

yea i know someone who used that. i think im just gonna try quitting the old fashion way. as long as i stay busy and away from the bar i should be ok.
Cory, one of my all time favorite movies! as for growing a mustache, i dont think that will happen. i have one with my beard right now. but rockin a solo mustache is a little rediculous imo. although i probably would look bad *** with a burly mustache and aviators!
