Thinking about joining the RCMP, popo Options

[Rayme]

... The Royal Canadian Mounted Police. For the past..oooh I'd say 6-8 months I've been actively seeking a new career and I'm pretty much sold now on joining the police, it's something I thought before but never really seriously considered it until now. I'm a graphic designer now and I must say this ain't something I want to do until I'm 55, I hate it now I can't stand standing in front of computer for hours and bending over for client's needs isn't rewarding at all.

Anybody has inputs, or somebody they know in the police force? Or thought about joining the badge? I know some of you guys have no respect for them, shut it please. Its not all police officer's who's patroling the roads.

Seriously sir, we need to stop talking so much. I buy an EP, you buy an EP. I think of joinin RCMP, you think of joinin RCMP. You copy cat.

I say go for it dude. Im still on the fence about it, but only thing is, I know u got a house and all, your probably better off sellin it. The info sessions i went to said that after the 24 weeks of training in Regina, you have to spend 5 years at a single posting before you can transfer and chances of moving back out east within thouse first 5 years are slim to none. I say if you are gonna join for sure, lemme know, we will join at the same time and be like the reps for 6GC and EPhatch in the RCMP..lol

I don't remember having a talk about the rcmp with you specifically..do you guys have tons of radio ads recently? I'm def. looking into it and will let ya know, for when? I'm not sure, it'd probably be within the year 2010. The place of work is my main concern, I wouldn't like to be posted in nowhere land in the north for sure, but since I'm french/bilingual, I'd hope they'd leave in in Quebec or the Atlantic..well, that's my reasoning
