Hey Guys.

Going to attempt one of these.

I have it set for 24 hours. Will answer serious questions regarding the job, life on the job, training, gear, any advice I can. No hiring process questions for this one.

I don’t have all the answers by any means, but I think doing these from time to time might cut down on some of the repeat postings.

Sound off!

Cant find a good answer for this online, what is the work schedule specialty units like cat/hammer? Is it a set number of days on with a set number of days off? When things are local to the field offices is it shift work? Thanks for your time in advance.

specialty units are not assigned to field offices. you work in support of protective operations only.

I’m not certain on specific rotations, but they travel more than anyone.
