Bad Luck Cadet
Description:... Do you have what it takes?At the age of twenty-five you have your whole life in front of you. When you're forty-five years old, fifty pounds overweight, and lying in bed with a broken hip, what do you have? Depression, red wine and no future, or so Suzie Ivy thought.An advertisement on a drugstore bulletin board changed Suzie's thinking and lands her in the police academy. Was she out of her mind? No, and she decided to live up to the challenge and achieve an almost forgotten dream.This story combines determination, full body muscle pain, and laughter. Did you know, to pass the new polygraph testing, you sit on butt plates because your butt cheeks clench when you lie? Or how a normal person feels after being administered the rigorous psychological testing with the end result for passing being low pay, enormous amounts of stress, and the pleasure of working graveyard shifts? The advertisement should have read, "Crazy People Wanted."Bad Luck Cadet is Gunnery Sergeant Hartman, from Full Metal Jacket, training both Thelma and Louise wrapped up in one five foot three inch package. The test of wills begin and who will survive?
