Mercer Island Boat Patrol

I got into town this morning and called the Sgt about the boat patrol. He had me come in today to meet up with him to talk about the boat patrol. Before I did that I called Peter and we did The PES. We ended up having to have him on his cell phone and do a three-way call. I called the studio line to get on the air, and I called Peter to hear what he was saying. What a pain in the neck. But we had a good show. We mainly talked about property rights and the death tax.

Following the show I went to Mercer Island and talked to the Sgt and his main EMT about the boat patrol, what he was looking for, etc. It seems like it could be pretty cool. It is not just a summer job like Heston was thinking, this is more of a long term part-time employment. Several Reserves had called him about doing this, but I think once they find out what he wants, they may not do it.

I told him about my experience at the fire department. I think I impressed him when I was able to mention some things I learned about the program by reading the Mercer Island Website ahead of time.

At the end of the interview I also let me know that I was a full-time corrections officer. He said academy trained? He seemed excited when I told him that. I think I nailed a good one when I added that piece of information.
