So I've had the same job for a few years now. The more I think about sitting at a desk all night typing away my life, the more I hate it. It's time for me to move on to something bigger and better. I hate feeling like my life isn't worth anything so I've considered my career options.
Lately I've been looking into being a cop. The requirements aren't too hard at all. Only thing that's keeping me is a valid drivers license. I will get that soon enough. Funny how the idea of this sprang up. I was talking to a really good buddy of mine this weekend and his father is a cop. I decided to do my own research on being a cop in my area. When I read everything, I had developed the biggest smile on my face. I wasn't sure why until today. I've always wanted a job that gave me some personal satisfaction as well as help other people. Here it is...right in my face. After being bitter for a long time that the military didn't want me, I now have the solution. Not sure how happy I would have been if I infact had been accepted in. From what I've viewed of the war and our government, I do not support the war in Iraq. I wouldn't be happy fighting in it. The thing with being a cop, I can protect people within my own country. I'll know who the bad guys are and I'll be sure to get the fuckers off the streets as well. It's a very high risk job, but I feel I can do it.
I'm going to work a lot more on my physical fitness. Although the cops physical fitness test is easy as pie to pass, I still have my height working against me. I'd like to show how capable I am of bringing someone down. If I can get myself in great shape and help rid myself of panic attacks..I think I'll be good to go. Seriously..here's hoping I make it.
