I went on the job in the mid-70's. It was, an is, the best decision I ever made. Are you married to the PA area? Wages in larger departments in the Denver area start in the mid 40's - including the academy for those agencies that run their own training. New officers accumulate good raises the first four years, ending up around 60K; but they work a lot of graveyard and swingshift time as well.

PM me if you have questions or just want to chat.
