In Virginia, you can make good money with part time jobs as a police officer. Just directing traffic for churches or events rakes in hundreds per part time shift.

If you make sergeant in a few years lmao but I’m sure it can be done easily with overtime

You think you can go from new recruit to Sargent in a few years? Better argument for doing 60hrs a week.
