Looking for input from current or former LEO or DPS officers.
Chas, if this is in the wrong spot please feel free to move the thread. Thought about the LEO Contacts/Bloopers, but really doesn't seem to fit there.
Anyhow, so here goes. I'm finishing up my MBA in May and am currently in the search for a job. Only problem is, now that I'm almost thru with business school (for the second time) I've come to the conclusion that I really don't want to be in the typical work environment. I worked prior to going back to school, and even worked during grad school. However, it just seems that no matter what job I was in it was never rewarding enough, despite the pay.
So my question is this, what if anything would a grad degree do if I wanted to get into law enforcement? The reason I ask is because I want to do something that I'll actually want to get up and go to everyday. On the reverse of this though is that I know how much I could make in the business world, and while money is really not my number one priority here, I don't want to sell myself short at the same time, especially with a new family in the foreseeable future.
So does anyone have input on the situation or experience they might be able to add? At the end of the day I just want to know I made a difference and like what I do.
Thanks as always...
