We have one more screening session next week for candidates. I appreciate the responses and feedback. Please know this is a permanent job opportunity work with a high-profile client. The client prefers everyone start out with RST and fill-in EP/Driver as needed until they have a foundation/relationship with you when you will be promoted to full-time protection responsibilities which comes with more money, perks, etc. If you're not willing to work overnight at the residence, they know you will not work out long-term so they simple don't want to waste their time or your time, respectfully.

🎉 Great news for Virginia gun owners! 🎉

Attention all Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) holders: Attorney General Jason Miyares has just delivered a crucial clarification regarding CHP renewals.

Some judges in Virginia have been misinterpreting the law, insisting that individuals renewing their CHP must provide proof of "in person" training. This requirement has caused headaches for many, especially those who no longer possess their original training certificate or whose certificate fails to specify the type of class attended.

But fear not! The Attorney General has officially set the record straight: there is NO mandate to demonstrate prior in-person training when renewing your CHP.

Check out the formal opinion here for all the details:https://www.oag.state.va.us/files/Opinions/2024/24-006-Hall-issued.pdf

Huge thanks to General Miyares for providing this much-needed clarification! Let's spread the word and ensure everyone is aware of their rights.
