I joined this forum back when I had made contact with my background investigator for the Department of Corrections.
Finally after two long years of testing and waiting, I received a call on Friday to report to academy in Sacramento on December 11th. They also advised me I would be placed in full time status immediately following graduation and would be reporting to the prison in Chino, CA.
Chino is only about forty minutes from where I am now, so I will be able to see my 15month old son alot more than if I had been ordered to a prison up North.
Feels so damn good. My paychecks will triple from what I get now. And I finally get to start working towards a pension. Thirty years I can retire with 90 percent of my highest paid year!

Way to go and congratulations.
That's a good deal on the pension. Most Government positions average your best 5 years of regular pay (overtime not included) and you get a maximum of 70% for your pension. That's based on an accrual of 2% per year of service so you have to put in 35 years to get the full 70%.
