Nope, How will you be able to diagnose problems offsite if the network is down? lol think about it.
2 :
Not really - you tend to need to be on site in order to fix things when there are (a) physical problems or (b) the Internet connection goes down

Interesting answers from Peter & David there... Well done guys.. Done much remote support? I'm going to go ahead and assume that when you say 'Work from Home' you mean that you're going to dial-in when you can and attend site when you need to... I used to do this for a year or so AT&T and about 3 years for EDS in the UK - It's effectively how all of the companies who manage other peoples networks for them work... You work in one place, backdoored into the customers network and fix problems on the fly... When the main external link goes down, you either get a site contact to do some firstline checks on, or reboot, the router... If that doesn't fix it you liase with the service provider whilst you're getting in the car and driving to site... Plus there should always be a backup ADSL or at least ISDN line to get in under just these cicumstances... Of course, it also depends on what you mean by Network Admin - I've seen jobs with this kind of description that ended up being Active Directory / Exchange admionistrators.. These can both definately be done remotely.. But then I've also seen them where it means a guy that goes around offices patching people in (this you can't really do remotely).. Good luck

Not unless you qualify to become a police officer first, they all work their way up through the ranks.

You first have to become a U.S. citizen and then go to work for a police department. I know several officers who were naturalized citizens and went into law enforcement careers. To be an investigator however, you have to work your way up through the ranks. If you can pass the exams, you will become one. Best of luck.

The Colorado State Patrol does not require that you be a U.S. citizen (just be here legally). I went through the academy with a legal alien from Scotland. You would have to start out as a state trooper working traffic and then with experience go into the more specialized investigative sections. Good luck. Rob.

In most, if not all, police agencies in the US, you must first be a police officer before becoming an investigator. My agency requires that you be a patrol officer for at least two years before you can apply for transfer to a specialized unit such as investigations, K-9, etc. And in order to be a police officer in the US, you must first be a citizen. If you're from Greece, you would need to apply for US citizenship, then you may apply to be a police officer. Studying criminal justice certainly helps, but it's not the only requirement.

Get a phone card. Make sure your phone is a tri or quad band, otherwise it won't work in Europe. Plus you will need to get an adaptor to be able to re-charge your phone. You need to have covered shoulders going into churches. Generally, people dress better in Europe, you won't see sweats out on the street. Just don't dress like a street walker, and have a pashmina to cover yourself up at any time you want. Have a great time. You will love it
