Just wanted to hear some opinions others have about it. I'm considering going to a CC and follow through a police or fire academy. I was looking in to the fire academy, but you had to be EMT certified beforehand so it's a bit iffy on that one. Seems much easier to join the force. Anyways, what are some thoughts you guys have about being a cop? How is the pay? Does it generally gets better? Heard it was stressful too, how so?
