    Just a suggestion, but being as you're 19 and trying to get a job in law enforcement, you might consider posting like someone who has the ability to make life and death decisions and deal with situations that require deep levels of maturity.

    Your background investigator will give shits about you posting like a halftard teenager in online forums. It's all cool, except for that trying to be a cop thing. Those two personalities don't mix. The last thing you want to do to yourself is submit applications for work, get accepted and go into a background investigation for 1-12 months and then get a letter saying sorry, you don't exhibit the maturity and judgement needed for this position.

    Just saying.. probably looks like I'm singling him out, and I am. Nobody else has a warm POST certificate and still acts like he's 15 like the rest of us assholes do. :D

    My Administration of Justice teacher retired from law enforcement and went into background investigation for our local SRPD, and taught AJ on the side. The more you know about BIs, the less you'd act a certain way anywhere public and accessible. They don't give many 19 year olds badges and guns, and the ones that get them are 19 going on 35, not 19 going on 19. You'll have enough of a problem finding a job than to shoot yourself in the foot before you take your first step, and even if you change your posting style tomorrow you still have a few boards to interview with and they'll determine your level of maturity and professionalism, decision making and problem solving skills, all of which I'd be working on as much as possible. Life experience is real, and they want a lot of it before you'll get hired. At 19, you don't have any, you need to be doing as much as possible to not look like a 19 year old without life experience and 19 year old maturity.

    I want the slate grey one. It looks so badass. But I already have an air and have no need to upgrade.

    What I'm more excited about is the apple watch, I will for sure be picking one up. But at $550 it's an expensive watch lol

    12'' is kinda small, and I don't like the single, proprietary port.

    Apple watch looks cool, I kinda want one but for my uses the fitbit surge does everything I need for less.


    Any of y'all trade/invest in stocks?
    I'd like to take a finances/investment class after I finish my semester at school, hopefully I can learn something.
