And he gets great cash for it. He's been there like 4 months and has never seen anybody drown etc.

So I decided to investigate on what he told me and what he said of it being simple to become a qualified lifeguard. After I was on the website I seen that It's a 4 day course which costs £200 and at the end of it you're qualified and free to apply to work. The nearest training centre is only like a 10 minute drive from my house. Obviously you have to pass a test on it etc but it seems easy enough (Especially If I know this guy can pass). He got the qualification and is now working at a pool by my home having boner time 8 hours a day.

To be honest my job now isn't great, the cash is good though. However I can still keep the job now and just reduce my hours and do this as well to earn extra cash. There are a number of pool's round my area so I should get a job once qualified and there's a new leisure centre being built by my home so I could apply there also.

I don't know if you realise but I'm taking a year out of school and then applying to join the police or to do a paramedic training course. It will also look good on my application for BOTH of those if I'm a qualified lifeguard which is an added bonus.

What do you all think should I go for it ? The £200 training fee isn't an issue by the way I've got that right now.
For some reason this made me laugh

Go for it, why not. Maybe find out how likely it is that you'll get a job after you get qualified but if it looks likely why not.

You looking at police or paramedic as your full time for the future type career?
