Back to work!!!

Well, I am finally back to work, even if it is just light duty. This means that I can finally get paid what I am supposed to get. I have found that a lot of things are changing here at LUPD and that may mean that I move on again to find something else to do. I may stay here at LU and find another department, since I have been here a year and can transfer, or I may push harder to find a Church and do what I would really want to do and be a Youth Pastor. Don't get me wrong, I love my job right now, but with some of the changes that I am hearing about and experiencing, I don't know how long I will continue to enjoy what I am doing. They don't want us to have set days off anymore, so we can "be more like 'real' police forces," but I don't know how well that will work since most of the people hear aren't planning to do this work for the rest of their lives. Maybe they want people who want to do police/security for their carreers, but if that is the case, they need to start paying much better. LUPD is one of the lowest paid departments here at the university yet we are the ones that have to work 24-7-52 while most other departments work 8-5 Monday thru Friday!!! Evidently keeping the place safe, isn't really high on the priority list of LU. Oh well, I don't know that I will make it to 2 years working for LU, in fact it is my plan not to be here come next February. I need to find a church and get into full-time Youth Ministry somewhere, anywhere, and ASAP. Well, enough ranting for tonight, I should get back to work here so that I can make some money.
