Wichita PD

Well, last night I did another WPD ride along. I just love it so much. As I was riding I was able to keep up with the activity of all the other stations and the sheriff’s department. I realized as we were running from call to call, that the sheriff’s office is a snooze compared to the action of the WPD. When I first applied for SO, that was all I knew. I didn’t have anything to compare it to. Now I have seen the light. Yes, they both do have their pluses and minuses, but in the end, I want the action. I have spent the last 10 years being bored at my job and always trying to keep busy. I want to make law enforcement a career and I just don’t want it to be another boring job. One of the 4th watch sergeants have been recruiting me big time on all my ride-alongs. I think last night he talked me into it. So, as soon as I get all my paperwork together, I’m going to apply for WPD. I just really hope it isn’t’ too late to get into the July class. The sergeant said it isn’t and that they are recruiting like crazy right now. So, we will see. I have about 3 weeks before my surgery so I need to get the ball rolling so I can at least get all the physical testing done before the surgery. So, keep checking back for more updates.
