My advise would be to be prepared to be criticized everyday. It doesn’t matter if you are a good cop, people will still hate you just because of the uniform that you wear, you just stay true to yourself and continue to do good to society.
When you become a law enforcement officer you take the blue pill and everyone else takes another pill which allows them to or whatever the wanted is right where everyone else takes the pill where they get to go about their lives as if none of this really exists. And when you become a cop it’s the opposite. You know you can’t go back and you see the world differently. Your life will change. And if you are mindful, all of those changes are going to be good.
Expect people to dislike you because of the clothing you wear. Expect some friends and family to dislike you because of your profession. Expect a profession where anything you do can destroy your like simply via a cropped video making the rounds on Facebook.
For someone that hasn’t yet started their law enforcement career, go to a least community college and try to get some experience through some of the programs they have. Talk to your police department and see if you can go in to some type of civilian program where they may have a civilian academy to learn more. See where your strengths are at. Not every cop is going to want to be a homicide investigator. But if that is where you, then go to your local or county department, or state department, and talk to them about that you would like to do this and how do I get started.
Try to get as much experience as you possibly can. It doesn’t matter what position you have in law enforcement. It doesn’t matter if you work in a jail, if you’re on patrol, get involved in as much as you can. That’s going to give you more experience and it’s going to broaden your horizons.
I would say try to find a mentor. You need someone to guide you when you first start in law enforcement. There's so much stuff that will be thrown at you.
Don't do anything stupid that you'll regret!
I'm a police dispatcher and I will say getting a counselor is essential especially if you are an empath like. People are usually in distress when they call or screaming and yelling. It can be a lot
Stand by your own principles and never abuse your authority or power. Don't do anything that will destroy your reputation, your agency's reputation and your family's.
That we are not in a movie. We need to leave our fantasies behind.
Be mentally, emotionally and physically fit. Prepare for the worse given the nature of our job. And do not take the law into your own hand.
