The amount of applications they typically receive is astounding. With the DEI initiatives they are now working under, could be difficult to get past the first pass for a bunch.

That many applications and they’re still letting former drug users come in?

If prospects don't try they for sure won't get in.

I would think a background check would red flag a former drug user? Unless you are privy to information of this problem.

Drug Use:
Applicant must have no current illegal drug use, within the past 2 years from the start date of the application process. Illegal drug use is the use of a drug that is considered illegal in Texas. For Example: Marijuana use in some states is legal, but illegal in Texas. So, if you used marijuana in those states, TPWD will consider that as illegal drug use. This also includes the use of prescribed drugs used in an illegal manner.

The ones running the dept are on drugs. Tpwd is beyond screwed up.

I’d enjoy the hell out of that. One of my best friends has been doing it for quite some time.

I wanted to be a possum cop at one time. I'm to old and fat now.

I resemble that remark.

It was my dream job……until I saw the pay scale.

My neighbor is a TPWD sergeant and has got to be the laziest POS I have ever seen. He just sits in his truck at his house while on the clock. Total DB.

Kinda like the ones that sit at the boat ramps and wait til people show up…..but, worser.

I used to want to be one, but figured half the time you'd be hassling people and looking for things they did wrong. Didn't want to be that guy.
