With as much time as I spend here with you fine folks, I really wanted to share some recent good fortune. After 10 years of working at my Department, and spending 8 of that on swing shift (1600-0200) on the streets, I am headed for a desk job. I was recently told I would be given an investigator's position starting Jan 5th. This will consist of day shift (0700-1730), with every Saturday, Sunday and Monday off, a Department issued take home car & and I can throw those old uniforms in the closet. While I am giving up something I truely love, this new schedule will allow me to see more of my wife and daughter. My wife and daughter's excitement alone is enough to make it worth it to me.
With the status of today's economy, I realize I am blessed to have a job, nonetheless getting a promotion. Which is another great reason to share with you inmates. Thanks for letting me share.
