As a matter of fact, I can. My husband has been on the dept. for 20 years, that is where I met him. At first things were a little hectic, because you are always listening for each other's radio traffic. So, the Lt. talked to us about it because it was interfering with work and I decided to step down as I too wanted children. As time went on I joined a diiferent dept., but recently, we  talked to the higher ups on his dept. since he is now a Sgt. and on a different district, and they have asked me to come back provided I stay on a seperate district. Right now, everything is working out great! So, yes, it can be done, but you have to seperate yourselves in order for it to work.

My husband and I work for different departments but my department would require us to work different shifts if we worked for the same department. At first we worked the same shift so we got to always listen for each other but after we had a baby I went to days so we could swtich off taking care of him. It works out well for us and we get two whole days off together. It can be done, it just takes time and effort. Good luck to you.

Thanks for all the comments, for an update, I did get hired and have been in the academy for thwe last 15 weeks. I graduate this week and can't wait to get on the road!!
