Becoming a sheriff sucks. You have to work in the jail. Inmates literaly throw shit at you, piss at you, spit at you.... It sucks. Imagine dealing with the shittiest scum on the earth all day long. It sucks. I almost took a job once doing this and I took a toar of the jail and yep, I am now in the IT field. Good luck! Before your so down on your self about not getting in, double check if it is up to expectations.
