    Wish me Luck

    So today at 12:45, I finally have an interview with the Tennessee Highway Patrol. So far, I've managed to pass the exam, and be selected for interview. If I pass, I still have psych evals, physicals, polygraph, and the rest of the process, but hey, at least I've gotten to sep 2.

    Keeping my fingers crossed on this one. I've been trying to get into law enforcement since I got out of the Army.

    ROFLMAO!!! Thats ok When I started out with the State Crime lab I had to go through the State Patrol for my various evals as the State DOJ wasn't set up for that specific function at the time... I have a MAJOR background in psychology that the psychologist doing the one on one psych eval wasnt aware of... poor woman! She didnt get my records until after she "interviewed" me.

    If you are physically fit, all you have to do is relax, and answer every question 100% truthfully. Evasion of mind will show and is worse than admitting to past transgressions that really no longer matter. And remember, an officer's job is just enforcement, not enterpretation of the law, thats up to the courts. With these things in mind, unless you have a few screws that are loose or a spring or two that are over tightened, you'll have no problems. You are an intelligent man and can be taught what you need to know, the rest of the interviews are just to be sure you're not a head case. SO I Just wouldnt mention that there are guys arguing about who gets to marry you...

    Just caught the thread, good luck. Don't worry about all the tests. Our Sheriff Office process takes about 7-8 months.
    Be ready now, you won't have that chance later.

    Izzy, I'm sure you did fine! Lets all hope he gets on to the next round!
    It is, of course, obvious that speed, or height of fall, is not in itself injurious ... but a high rate of change of velocity, such as occurs after a 10 story fall onto concrete, is another matter.
