What ever happen to the old ways on during bail enforcement, the days when we would investigate cases without a lot of fanfare? Those days of old when you toiled about your chosen profession, somewhat secretly being a beacon of hope to ensure that the criminal justice system worked as our forefathers has envisioned. Now days we have the wannabes, cowboys, and the Hollywood types, everybody wants to have a reality show.
The hell with what bail enforcement agents really do, it is what can I do to get my own show and the ratings that will kept it going. Real investigative work has been replaced by the blaze of the ubiquitous television cameras and the copious ambiguity of the shows narrator. I relish the modern tools that we now have at our fingertips such as the; internet, social media and such, but I still long for the old ways of during this work by way of low profile, low impact, and the furtherance of the criminal justice system.

Exactly, It's been 5% action and 95% investigation in my short tenure so far. I knew that getting in, in fact, a primary motivation for me getting into this was that my effort directly affects my reward, and I have some control over my hours without the political bull-spit of factory jobs. I love the job so far, but not a day goes by that someone doesn't refer to me as "like Dog". Not to bash on Mr. Chapman, I'm just not the type to do that to people, but it tends to drive the conversation away from why I initially initiated conversation with a contact in the first place.
