After almost fourteen years I am back in the Whitman County Sheriff’s Reserves. I am excited about the whole thing, but I also found that the class was going to take nearly five months and not ten weeks like I was expecting. So I am going to have to work to get more time off from the fire department that I thought I would have to do. I am worried about that.<\/p>\n
The first day of class I got a chance to meet up with some of the other students. We had the Sheriff tell us about ethics and what he expects from us. It was mainly a day of introductions and laying some of the groundwork of the academy. I am excited for the academy to get over with so I don’t have to worry about getting days off from work and then I can go out on the road and work on becoming First-Class solo patrol.<\/p>\n
I got out my old belt and put it on. I found that it was loose on me. I may have to buy a new belt. Looking back I weighed more when I first got into the academy my first time through than I weigh now. It is weird because I just assumed that I would be bigger now than then when I was twenty-one. But that was not the case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
