It's 3 months, plus 2 more for us who don't speak spanish. Why would I transfer to another LEO job if I'm not all that interested in this one. I've stated I've very likely make a mistake in my occupation choice. CBP officer work POE's, BP Agents work in-between the POE's and the academies are quite a bit different.
What would it look like if I took this job and than transferred over to a different agency. Still the same as quitting, as far as my peers are concerned. Honestly, I'm not worried about them or perception, if I leave most of these people are never going to see me again, or remember me in months to come. My main concern is taking care of myself and getting my ... straightened out.
