Any Nashville Metro officers here?

[Guest sling]

I've been putting this off for awhile...

Recent changes in the company i work for has lead me to start looking for a better job. Currently i work behind a desk in IT. Now, one could ask... how much better could it get? Behind a desk... out of danger... 8 - 5 schedule

I've wanted to become a law enforcement officer for awhile. I'd really like to serve my community and not be behind a desk all the time. Do we have any officers here on the forum that might could give me a little bit more information about your department? I've read through metro's website probably 100 times but that doesnt amount to what an officer on the job can tell you.

Thanks guys

I'm in the exact same boat as you, sling.

I've been considering the LE path for a while now, hoping to get out from behind a desk, and recent changes at work may be the catalyst that pushes me further towards that consideration. I work in the construction industry, and with the economy in the crapper, no one is building, so lay offs are looming...

They are having an "Open House" from 5:30 to 6:30 next Tuesday, I'm probably going to be there.

I saw that Poak.

We should meet up there. I wasnt sure what time it was at but i think i can make that time frame after work.

Sounds good to me, I'll PM you later.

Hah. I'm hijacking my own post.

I wonder if they will be posted...
