Some people work in a big fancy office.
Others can't wait to get out of the building. If you are looking for a career in federal law enforcement and you love the great outdoors, the U.S. Border Patrol could be just what you're after. With overtime and other pay premiums the annual starting salary can range in the low 30s to low 40s, with an excellent federal government benifits package. Have one year of qualifying experience or a bachelor's degree. First duty stations are along the Southwest border.
