Thanks

Troop H is not bad. Major is pretty low key. You’ll have most of the same as any metropolitan area. I would guess not as bad as Orlando or Miami tho.
Most Troopers do their job; then there are a few that go out of their way to do nothing.

How about the 208 in the area? Good or slim pickings?

Troop H is awesome. Best Major in the state. Troop H was a total wreck over a year ago. We now get to do our jobs without the fear of Welch screwing us over. Not much off duty here. But you can get your 12 hours of SOAR if you want the OT. Troop H is a great place to work.

Morale has been boosted big time since the departure of Welch and the welcoming of Blackmon.
The Major allows H to do their job without being fear induced. I’ve seen the Major call Troopers into his office or catch them in the hallway and just talk to them. About their family, home life, etc.
Call volume is low. Expect between 4-10 crashes a month on 12 hour shifts. Lots of time to be proactive. Issue in H is that some Troopers are making 15 stops a month with 5 crashes in Troop H. There is no push for tickets or anything like that in H, but proactivity is something expected when you’re not busting your hump on calls.
208 is decent for the area. Not a killing but enough to at least have a job or two a week. Cost of living is good in the rural counties mostly outside of Leon. Leon on the other hand could’ve, should’ve, would’ve been $5k extra county possibly. Here’s to hoping they just increase all 67 counties that $5k in the future.
Overall, one of the best Troops I’ve worked in. Just be smart and don’t let the “lax” get you in trouble in the longrun.
