Exploring new challenges
My job gives a big room to expand your ability to resolve matters. It creates a space to have a good interpersonal relationship with other stakeholders. Though it has its challenges but I ensure that i always keep myself afloat. Investigation needs a lot of patience and open minded person to easily follow every lead and leave no stone unturned.
Pros: it creates a room for tolerance and to think out the box
Cons: I have to put extra efforts in order to achieve by working extra hours

My work is no longer interesting and challenging.
I just want to expand my knowledge and expertise to other environment and also other spheres of other companies. At times you feel that police duties are very traumatic and are putting a lot of stress on someone. So sometimes it is vitally important to change.
Pros: Benefits are fantastic
Cons: One can't get enough rest always long hours due to the fact that we are doing essential services

Still studying to empower
Currently I am a crime prevention official that patrols and focus on specific type of crime like hijackings, business robbery,and house robbery. Attend to complaints ,accident scenes and work special events like escorting duties. I work as the supervisor and post members to their different duties inspect the on duty members sign pocket books and sign on duty and inspect off duty. Working relationship with other members is excellent because its a team work. I have leant a lot with working with my team because now I know how to work as a team as oppose to working as the manager that just instruct with out being involved. The most challenging aspect is the fact that the job is very dangerous and also to motivate the member who are not motivated due to promotion
Pros: promotion opportunities are there but no clear promotional policy
Cons: long hours

Excellent learning place
I've learnt more than I could've in any other place as I've notice how people react to the regulations of the administration and how most people dislike the truth. the politics which I've learnt how to maintain your ground and stand up for yourself at every turn.
Pros: learning the day to day and how to be professional at all times
Cons: too much politics
