kpounds- thanks for the link, I checked it out and it seems to pull from a wide variety of sources!
Surfer- I'm pretty sure I would
hate sales. I can't imagine having a substantial portion of my income rely on someone else's decision to purchase off of me or not.
az57chevy- 1) great idea
2) I'm working on it- each week I am adding another day of cardio, but I know there is room for improvement. I am right at the state requirements for the running, but the pushups and sit-ups I have to improve on.
3) Agreed
4) Not sure how accurate that is. Every cop I know loves being in police work, vice versa for firemen...
Gonzo0903- that seems to be inconsistent with my experiences, but maybe elsewhere this is more prevalent. I do know the firemen seem to get all the thumbs up/smiles/waves (and ballot votes for bond renewals) compared to the PD. That doesn't bug me though
Thank you to everyone for their posts and suggestions. I am leaning towards turning down the conditional offer and explaining to personnel that I do not want to go into something half-hearted because it will not be fair to them or me. This will give me time to keep working on getting into better shape and prioritize what I want versus what I need.
