[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 4285412, member: 45773"] I got sgt's pay at the metro-Denver area department where I worked 25 years ago. Adjusted for inflation it was $1500+ per month more than what a sgt makes today at the lowest pay step of $133k+ per year. And that's not even figuring overtime, incentive pay, specialty pay, uniform/cleaning allowances, equipment pay, etc. That all added up to about $28k per year additional for me (again...25 years ago). I don't know what that extra pay figure would be now. And I hated every minute of it...not the job. I loved the job but I hated what policing was becoming and I didn't care about the money. So I bailed in late 2000. I miss a lot about it but I'm glad I left when I did. It's not always about how much money a guy makes. [/QUOTE]
