Applying to be detention officer I’m a 19 year old who stutters, and im interested in becoming a cop when im older. Im doing everything I can to not let my stutter impact my goals of doing so. I recently applied to be a detention officer at my county’s jail and was wondering if any of yall went down similar paths. I expect to get a lot of insults and remarks from the people that come in there, but I’m not worried about that phasing me.
