Catherine's Story
Life
I've come a long way since 1975, from shyest of my class to winding up a law enforcement officer, now retired since January of 2006. I have volunteered with a local greyhound rescue group and own 2 of my own greyhounds. Was married for 15 years, divorced and now remarried to a wonderfull guy. I like to go fishing and walk 4 miles a day for exercise. I like working around the house fixing things. Set me loose in Home Depot and watch out! I have no children, but my dogs are like 2 big babies. They are the greatest.
School
Although I was voted the shyest of my class, I was really just quiet. I've overcome a lot of things over the years, getting through a police academy, working in a male dominated field, getting divorced after 15 1/2 years and taking care of myself, my dogs and my home. In school I wish I was more outgoing, but I had some good friends, and I don't think ...Expand for more
I was lumped into any one certain group. I blended in and I think people didn't dislike me, they just didn't know me.
College
I went to Middlesex County College from 1975 to 1978, obtaining 2 A.S. degrees, one in Marketing, the other in Retailing
Workplace
I started out dispatching for the sheriff's dept, then the Turnpike authority..and wound up an officer with the sheriff's dept. Over the years I've worked in the courts, ID bureau, doing community awareness like the D.A.R.E. program and finished up my career in our prisoner transportation section. I retired January 31st 2006 with 25 years and 4 months in..but who's counting. So it's over 3 years now since I've retired, and I am not liking it. I found a per diem job at Old Bridge Hospital doing security, go figure. Been there for about a month, and I'm still trying to decide if I like it enough. Jury is still out on that.
