That's what I thought you said the first 3 times I read your post. Congrats on the graduation.

Belated congratulations on your graduation! Welcome to the Brotherhood!

Officer Bob Brady, we need a Team DL log, I'd make it but I'm too lazy.

DEVILsSON · 10-04-2008, 12:23 PM

Thanks Newt. Long time no see.

Finished my second week. It's been a lot of fun. Definitely get to see a lot of things.

Went to the station gym and did a few things mostly messing around

Heavy Bag: 4x30 sec

-Bench: 135x10, 225x20+0
-Web Pull Ups: 12
-Web Chin Ups: 15
-Commando Web Pull Up One arm negs: 3 per arm

Squats: 135x5
Sit ups
etc

Found 2 100lb plates....sweet...need to try out DL here. Didnt bring belt or chalk...so decided against deadlifting today.

How do you like the job so far Debil? I may be joining the NYPD academy in Januray since they just got a decent pay bump.

DEVILsSON · 10-04-2008, 01:02 PM

It's a lot of fun. More fun than academy by a mile. Everything is totally difference as expected. :::pretends to be shocked::: lmao...

SFPD is hiring like crazy so I highly recommend you apply here...maybe lateral? only 8 week academy. If pay is one of your key considerations then def one of the highest paid. 80G while in the academy(+guaranteed weekends every few weeks, great retirement, etc). A great department too. The city is a bit too liberal for many people's tastes but it is what it is.

fennway4414 · 10-04-2008, 01:06 PM

80k while in the academy is great. What do they put you to after 5 years?

NYPD was at 26k while in the academy about 1.5 years ago, and now they are at 40k and 95k after 5 years, not including benefits or overtime. Also, the shifts work weird, they are 8.3 hours or something like that so that every other week, you only work 4 days a week instead of 5. Seems pretty good to me, I decided to get in now since they just got a pay bump and the economy is so terrible, I don't want them to stop or slow down hiring cops.
