[QUOTE="Mike23, post: 594446"] Take neither. Be a fire fighter. If you don't get a call at night you sleep all night with FULL pay, usually you get paid more for night shifts too. Remember, when you graduate from police academy they give you a gun and baton. When you graduate from fire fighter academy they give you a pillow and blanket :D If you do want a comparison though that hasn't been mentioned yet look at job security. As a cop you definitely have a stronger union then the teamsters. It has your back NO MATTER WHAT. As a teamster member I'm sure you already realize all the chip shuffling that goes on. Another thing...Cops have each others backs and will help when help is needed. A teamster won't because he doesn't know if tomorrow will be a 12 hour day or not because of bad management decisions. Come to think of it, if we were cops and had our managers right now, I think a lot of us would likely be dead in the line of duty, kind of a scary thought. [/QUOTE]
