Makes you wonder why anyone would want the job.
Yep, I saw an article earlier today that Border Patrol is offering a 5% bonus to retain agents.
“Makes you wonder why anyone would want the job.”
Well, if you get assigned to the North Troy, VT. border checkpoint station I think your biggest problem is what to bring for lunch. So, you put in your 30-40 years and never draw your service weapon. There are hundreds of points across the Canadian border where your job must be trying to stay awake. I count 12 border crossing points in VT, 2 in NH and 14 in ME. Only 4 of these are major interstate highway crossings. The rest are small towns.
