academy

Well I got accepted into the police academy starting in January. Now I just hope that my student loan goes through so I can have the necessary funds for it. I'm excited and looking forward to starting the academy.

Best of luck to you J bird. I just graduated in June and still havent found any work, but its out there. Just focus on getting this portion out of the way and you will do fine.

And remember. Push ups are considered positive upper body reinforcements

Where have you been applying? I know the LASD is hiring as well as Torrance PD and a few other locals.

LAPD will lift their hiring freeze within the next few months.

Good luck!

If you are willing to relocate, I hear Clark County, Nevada, or Vegas is usually hiring. I have been considering the move if they will hire me after I graduate myself... Congrats, btw.
