ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
The FBI has its own language. It is full of acronyms and expressions that are unique to the FBI. So much so that there is a class at the FBI Academy to familiarize new agents with the FBI's acronyms and terminology. A "First Office Agent" is a newly minted FBI agent who has recently reported to their first office of assignment. While there is supposed to be a probationary period of 1 year during which each First Office Agent spends a lot of time with their assigned "Training Agent", my first office agent experience like many of my fellow first office agents was that we learned by doing and by getting advice from the slightly more tenured other first office agents.
First Office Agents have accomplished great things in their careers but there was also a certain amount of "trial and error" and some of those experiences make for some great stories. First Office Agents is based upon my experience as a first office agent in the Memphis Division and those of my good friend, Kevin Cearlock. Kevin and I are two people who find the humor in everything and there were plenty of funny things we experienced firsthand during the the course of our FBI careers. We hope you enjoy hearing about them.
