I will be graduating college in a year, and would like to become an officer, but would like to ENSURE to myself and prove to the department that I will be ready for it when I apply. Before I became interested in law enforcement, I took 3-4 hits of marijuana 3 times over a course of 2 years, the most recent about a year ago. I personally don't feel that enough time has passed to indicate that I won't do it again, and I believe most departments would agree. I know that I will keep a clean slate from now on, but I still want time to pass (at least 2 yrs) , b/c what better way to prove it than to show it? Anyway, it would also help for me to gain some life experience, and get into shape.
So what can I do during this time to prepare for a career in law enforcement? I will certainly take the opportunity to volunteer as much as I can, but I will need to make a living as well. What paying job could I take on in the meantime? I've considered joining the military, but are there other options
