True. I don't like my commute to DC everyday, I do it for the money.
DING! Winna!
I would take this one step further. I used to be a DC MPD officer. I enjoyed every last minute of it. But once someone took notice of my computer skills I was offered a job in DC working with networks. I could not refuse, and my pay went from 29K to 65K within the course of a week, and this was 15 years ago..
Now I am stuck. I mean really stuck because I hate the IT industry. I hate everything about it. But the problem is now I can't go back because the salaries in IT has gone thru the roof if you have the skills and now my family is living well above the means of a police officer.
It really sucks 'cuse I would go back in a heartbeat if I could afford to.
