But down here in Houston, we are a few hundred good men shy of what we need. There is currently a pretty steep bounty being offered for new recruits, and I understand the benefits are top notch as LEO work goes. Unfortunately, we are also chock-a-block full of arse-kissing bureaucrats running the joint too. ya have to take the bad with the good I guess. Knowing how you feel about idiots and fools, I can also see that working seriously against you.
