A lot of us probably don't really appreciate the services provided by our fire, ambulance, and police departments and recognize it's not a path for making big bucks. After 10+ years in the corporate world, I realized I wasn't cut out for it and back to school now for a degree in nursing. There are far more riches in life you can achieve that don't pertain to a dollar sign.
Good luck.

I didn't misunderstand Duane, I meant I'm not really looking for sympathy from the folks who are against us in this. I understand where they are coming from, but the whole story is too involved to into here. Suffice it to say they (not all the folks, a very specific group) are using very unscrupolous tactics to try to achieve their agenda and I am trying my best to get our employees this bonus, which is what they voted me in to do. Congratulations on going to school for a degree in nursing, wish I had the good sense to do it myself.
