Should I become a police officer? No college required and salary starts at $73k after the first 18 months

Actually, you do need a college degree. The job is tenuous and mind-numbingly boring. You serve no purpose other than to waste your time dealing with dead-beat dads and crack mommas.

I already checked and no college is required. I have to go to the police academy though. I'm pretty dumb so $73k seems great for arresting black people.

Maybe your state is different. Mine certainly requires a degree.

If you are actually dumb, go ahead and do it. It is probably the best living you can make without having a brain. It's also a lot less boring if you are dumb.

You probably think the most boring, depressing thing you'll end up doing is sitting behind a desk or writing traffic citations to young people. But no, somehow this job will find a way to demean you to something even less than that, it will find a way to be even more rote, and every single day you come in you will question why your presence is even required.

You will unironically spend most of your days talking to 85 IQ moms and dads and/or mentally ill or personality disordered deadbeats who are literally unable to care for their children. You might as well go into special education, at least as children these people are endearing.

I'm in USA. I just looked it up. Some areas require some college credits or a bachelors. My state doesn't require that.

Apply for and take the department's written exam.
Pass the physical exam.
Complete a formal application.
Pass the medical exam.
Pass the background check and drug test.
Complete police academy training.
Complete 13 months of field training as a probationary officer.
Begin working independently as a fully-sworn Chicago police officer.

>>16401537
No, I said arrest. Black people commit most of the crimes here.

>>16401541

Most of what has already been said is true. It can be a rewarding job, but it’ll burn you out as well. Have you looked into the job at all? I suggest talking to actual officers as well as trying to doing a ride along to get a feel for it. Policing isn’t what it used to be and if you’re in it for the wrong reasons (money, power, ego trip) it’ll get old very quickly. Where you’re working is a huge variable as well. I’m about to go to sleep but if you wanna leave some questions and this thread is still alive in 5-6 hours I can get back to you

Oooo just saw you’re talking about Chicago. I thought that 72k after 18 months sounded familiar. I live and work in Illinois. Also have friends who are CPD. Fucked state with a fucked pension. I don’t recommend it at all. Unless you want to commit to working 30 years and having to live in the city limits only to potentially not have a pension after your time is up. I’m personally trying to get the fuck out ASAP

>Chicago police officer.
Fair enough. That's probably one of the highest paying police officer jobs in America.
Probably because nobody wants to do it.
Chicago is one of the most dangerous cities in America. Especially after the dumbfucks banned firearms for law-abiding citizens and rendered them all defenseless and completely dependent on the cops.

To follow up on this, the last time I checked (I had applied to CPD a long time ago) you needed at least 60 credit hours if I’m not mistaken. I knew there was at least some college required. Anyway, if it’s down to no college that should tell you something. I already knew they were waiving application fees so more niggers and spics could apply. The city used to only give the test every 4 years..that’s how in demand the job was. Now it’s a test every year and they STILL can’t get enough people. Buddies who have gone through academies recently say they’re filled with young kids with zero life experience, borderline gangbangers, libshits, etc. All this coupled with the fact they’re trying to change the image of the department by making the officers more like the citizens (aka coloreds) is a recipe for disaster. If I were OP I’d stay away and test for a nice white suburb or better yet just leave this god forsaken state

Who do you think corruption benefits? It benefits basically the entire public sector. Cops are included. In really corrupt countries being a cop is an extremely lucrative operation because not only are you bleeding the tax payer while doing effectively nothing you're also taking bribes.

If you’ve got no other prospects and you think you can make it it’s not a bad idea. However it’s not as easy or fun as just arresting niggers and if you’re a pushover you can and will endanger yourself and fellow officers. Having said that if you’ve got no other prospects the military is a better idea.

It benefits those who are complicit. If OP becomes a Chigaco PD cop and keeps his head down, he'll be fine. If he is tries to "change the system from within" he's a dead man.

Anon, you really don't want to be a cop in Chicago. Move somewhere with less crime and be a cop there. There is a reason /pol/ has (had?) a regular thread dedicated to listening to Chicago police radio. Chicago was chosen over the likes of Baltimore because it had more action. The place sounds like a war zone on hot summer nights.
