Sufwan Abdulmagid is entering the police academy. \u201cI knew it would be tough. There were many drills and requirements. Getting tased and pepper sprayed was not fun.\u201d However, there was one requirement that he did not like at all, \u201cI had to cut my hair.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Six months later he achieved his goal and became a police officer. <\/span><\/p>\n

He achieved his goal since he was a kid he wanted to become a police officer because \u201cI saw myself helping people.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI always loved action and a job with action is a bonus.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHowever I still went to college because I didn\u2019t just want to stop there I want to rank up and soon become an Agent working for the FBI.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Then an argument ruined everything he did in the academy.\u201d I got mad at a co-worker and punched him in the face\u201d. He then got moved from Detroit to Inkster.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI hated Inkster, it was one of the most crime-filled city and I had the night shift from 11:00 at night to 7:00 in the morning.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

He worked hard, and he got to work on time, completed all his tasks and eventually requested a transfer.<\/span><\/p>\n

Later he worked in Brownstown \u201cBrownstown was much better and my shift even changed from night to morning shift.\u201d Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday he works in the office. Thursday and Friday he is out in the field patrolling the city. The morning shift was from 7:00 to 3:00 however he works overtime from 7:00 to 5:00.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI work in overtime because I like my job.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI am working hard so when I request a transfer to Detroit it will hopefully be accepted.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Work would be closer and Detroit has a lot of action so it would be perfect. <\/span><\/p>\n
