How about this switch as well? OTR oilfield and highway truck driver, to LEO, to H2S Safety Supervisor / Level I & II High Angle and Confined Space Rescue.

Driving paid the bills after college. Police work, I still miss the good stuff, but the BS was too great. And currently, I make more than double of the other two - I do have a blast as well.
