I have done quite a lot in my time in the service and I had always feared leaving it. But I look around and see people I used to know changing and progressing in their life and I can only compare it to my own. Now I can say without a doubt I have done things they won't ever get to do in their life and that's great. Yet despite the great times I have had and great people I have met it doesn't out way the most simple facts. One the pay is terrible it always has been from day one. Two your time is never really your own. I remember many time being called off leave or coming in to work cause I was lowest man on the totem pole or the only one who could do the task given. And lastly but most important the lack of not seeing family or being there for those you care about. It's for those simple facts that I got to move on. I would have liked to do more but it is what it is. Luckily though I am going to have a great transition into a career that I know will be better. I have always had a calling to protect and serve and I want to do that in place closer to home. I am going to be a police officer in Houston. I can only hope I can help more people. Well everybody wish me luck and maybe if your out that way you can say hi :).
