No it isnt. Those tents are pretty warm when set up properly. The straw insulates the tents rather well. I dont know If I will be able to go or not at this point. All depends on when they hire someone and if I have to train them.

I know how that is Steve. They just hired 4 new officers for my shift last month. The one position that was open had been open for about 2 years.

Well the other 3 openings were filled after about 3 months. Then the 3 officers they had hired for those spots quit.

It is and it isn't. Some of the turnover from that group ws pretty much people not ready to work at a place like a university.
