I am a police officer. Been doing for 4 years now. So far I really like it. I work in patrol and so far I plan on staying there for awhile. When I go home for the day, what little stress I had goes away and tomorrow is a new day. I am sure one day I might want to be an investigator, but for now I am content being in patrol. It's something new everyday and just when I think I've seen it all, something new comes up.
I was off duty when the tornado hit Tuscaloosa. I had no idea how bad it was, but knew I had to get to work. I never got a call to come in, nor could I get a hold of anyone, but figured I needed to show up anyway. I came into town through one of the back roads, and it still took me a long time. I got into the edge of town about two hours after it hit. I did not see the wrath of the main path until about 3 or 4 hours after it hit. I was in shock when I finally saw the path. Something I will never forget.
