Do you guys know anyone that has made this move? I am seriously considering this. City where I live, police start off 80k a year and work only 3 days a week (12hr shifts). You get to be outdoors, do not have to type bullshit motions or do discovery.

Biggest mistake of my life. My original plan was to get a BA and join the force, but because of family influence and academic achievements, I never took this route. I regret it big time now.

true dat. I just cant see any reason why being a lawyer is better than being a cop. I have come to realize that I prefer bluecollar type of jobs over white collar jobs.

Do you actually know any cops? The ones I know constantly complain about all the paperwork, office politics, and egos they have to deal with. Sounds like working for biglaw partners, except your superiors will be significantly stupider.

It isn't terribly unusual at all to see federal agency attorneys go into federal LE 1811 officer positions. They are fucking pimps dude. Best job out there if you're disposed to that sort of work. They are legit.

I would emphatically encourage you to become a cop. Especially if you had a prior interest in it and now feel some regret, while at the same time disliking the law.

ITT: A lawyer who has NO CLUE what police do and what the life of a road patrol/beat cop is like.

LOL, just LOL @ the thought of having a "chill life" making 80k for 36hrs a week.

This is flame, right?

I work with cops everyday and I can assure you that no rookie coming from a NON-LAW ENFORCEMENT CAREER is going to sail into the force and making 80k working only 3 days a week.

You aren't listening:

In what alternate reality would a STATE/COUNTY GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY pay a ROOKIE $80k when that ROOKIE has absolutely no experience or training in this specific field?

AND

You only have to work 36hrs a week.

Lulz!

Every knuckle-dragger in the world would be applying.

? i just told you

rookie cops in oakland and SF get around 80k breh and most have the option after training to work 3 12s or 4 10s or 5 8s

tons of people do apply for these jobs. I think the acceptance rate for the LAPD is around 5 percent.

Yup, it's a travesty. These cities/states deserve to go bankrupt. Why would they ever need to start them so high? Even if you buy the argument of it being a difficult/dangerous/essential/noble/etc. position worthy of high pay, why not start them off at 49k with generous 8k a year raises petering off at the 100k range. They'd still get tons of qualified applicants, officers a couple of years in wouldn't feel like their earning were stagnant, and it would save a bundle.
