It’s a better package than most engineering majors get fresh out of college. When you factor in overtime it’s not even close.[/quote]

Except those engineers don’t need to worry about getting killed or disabled at work. [/quote]

To be fair, all of us have to worry about that to some extent in this country. But yeah, it’s not part of the actual job. [/quote]

There’s also emotional weight you need to consider: a wellness check that leads to a deceased person, finding neglected children, and even putting down maimed deer.

There’s a lot about the job people don’t see.[/quote]

There are certainly stressors associated with police work. All but the deer you mentioned above can also affect people in EMS, social work, child protective services, nursing and other medical professions. You don’t forget the 2 AM gunshot victim calls where you need to apply chest seals and address a tension pneumothorax with a dart to keep them alive until EMS can get them to the ER.[/quote]
