Jay H yeah the pay sucks. I use to work for FDOC making $30k a year, and i had a huge obsession with FHP. I was 23 and didn't know any better. Now I just turned 27, 2 weeks ago and I net $2k-$3k a week . And now I'm saying to myself "what was a thinking? It feels good to have a badge and have some authority but authority don't pay my bills to well. All of that authority and a shiny new car will become old and no longer pleasurable.
@@miguelrobb5719 If you net $2k-$3k a week then that is pretty good pay. You must be doing a lot of overtime and off-duty detail. And yes, I agree the nice car and authority will get old like any other new experience.
@@miguelrobb5719 LOL, My bad! I thought you were currently a trooper. I went thru the academy 10 years ago. I was 21 at the time. The recession occurred so the very few LEO jobs that were available were very difficult to get. I got tired of the bullshit from agencies and just completely lost interest in law enforcement. When I come across videos like these I become curious on the current salary. It has not changed much in a 10 year period. Now that I am 32 years old, not even six figures would persuade me to become a cop.
FHP is not a good agency to work for, there is a two ticket per hour quota that all troopers must meet throughout their work shift even when working overnights where there's less traffic.
Wrong. FHP has an off duty program called SOAR that requires (2) CONTACTS per hour not tickets. For example if you stop a vehicle for unlawful speed that would be 1 contact / violation. The program is based on production.
@@Crayon3aterGaming U say it likes it a high salary or something lmao. Its still minimum fucking wage! That would barely pay ur mortgage and basic bills monthly smfh.
@@TENNESSEETRACKHAWK as a person that use to work in law enforcement... I sadly agree with you. The pay is straight up garbage. I became a truck driver shortly after my short career in Florida department of corrections, making a garbage pay of $15/hr. There’s now kind of pride of working in law enforcement for such low pay. You will have to be a huge screw up to make a career out of something like this
Yeah, 'diversity issues' as in no one gives a shit about that idiotic 'diversity' *cRaP*!! Its whether the person can or cannot do the job, nothing else.
I am going to run for office in the State of Florida one day . My main mission will be to get these outstanding troopers consistent pay raises .
STAY ALERT, STAY ALIVE, THANK YOU F.H.P FOR KEEPING THE FLORIDA HIGHWAY SAFE.
Hail hail FHP!
Nothin in this world is free, a Troopers life is made for me.
Godspeed to the women!
Hail Jesus
Believe it or not , I believe this is the best Law Enforcment agency in the state of Florida .
My Dream!
To bad the pay sucks! Starting salary is about $38,000/year.

Jay H a lot of over time? No I don't even work hard. I'm my own boss these days. Anyways what agency are you in?
Jay H I work 1-3 weeks and I give myself 1-2 weeks off straight. Pretty good if you asked me. Every off time is like vacation to me lol

Do FHP troopers get free passes at Walt Disney World?
Yeah but the pay sucks

It is against Florida state law to implement quotas

Yea so...... its a job they get paid to do. Writing tickets is easy and creates revenue.
and What does FHP Stand For
F-Florida
H-Highway
P-Patrol
Eric wtf is wrong with u learn dude
@@master122pro2 there was a time you didn't know what it stood for. Chill
Hows the pay
$38,000 starting unless you are down south it jumps to around $42,000.
Timothy Johnson it's dogshit
They pay them peanuts ! I would NOT risk my life for such low pay.
It's a little over $40k right now. NC is now the lowest paid.
Yea minimum wage isn't gonna attract too many qualified candidates.

@@miguelrobb5719 Thats why if ur not working in the Northeast, Texas or out west ur not gonna make much money as a Cop.
A lady FHP officer gave me a 1,000 ticket for a motorcycle wheelie. Good thing I just got my tax return. No wonder she did give me a warning.
The morale and the high turner over rate is beyond ridiculous at FHP. Lastly, I think this agency have some diversity issues too.
Yeah, 'diversity issues' as in no one gives a shit about that idiotic 'diversity' *cRaP*!!
Its whether the person can or cannot do the job, nothing else.
She looks like a boy to me
DEWJR why would you say that about her
Disastrous.
