Way back in 1978, I took the exam for a Game Warden and passed. A friend was the county GW then and told me I had the job if I wanted it. The pay was really low, you had to furnish your own vehicle, they only provided a shirt for a uniform etc. My wife and family talked me out of it. I’ve always regretted that decision…..
From what I understand that was the norm with a lot of law enforcement agencies across the board. At least around here.
There was a Caneyville city cop they said back in the I guess 60’s or 70’s and had been out doing cop things, writing tickets and stuff and come to find out didn’t even have a drivers license himself. 😂😂😂
That wasn’t a livable wage with a family even then.
Trust me, I know. My wife was traveling every day from western Meade County to Louisville as she was in the Masters program for teaching, we struggled big time.
That sounds just like me and my wife at the time only I started corrections in 99'.. My wife and I both were still in college, she was substitute teaching(at the time, shes a teacher now) and I was going to school and working at EKCC.. I remember our budget allowed me $10 per day,$8 for gas and $2 for a couple pops. I ate at work.. We were able to order out once per week then.. Tough but good times
If there’s a CO financially benefiting from the same people he’s supposed to be regulating there may be a state ethics branch issue. I’d be curious if any of that has been cleared by the kdfwr
I get PMs from them all the time 😅
No, he was a Trooper. Pay attention.
