    LAPFCU, this place would be perfect if the employees didnt play around so muchare, services offered are better than my Bank of America. Could have better hours and the set up of the actual credit union is lacking, but i think the credit union was an after thought. The place could use a facelift especially the parking lot. Love my police family, keep u the good work.

    Went to a recruitment seminar. Second in command of LAPD gave a nice speech discussing the job.

I recently received a serious health diagnosis and needed to apply for Medicare Part B immediately. Ms. Harris handled my case with the utmost care and professionalism. We often miss commending great employees, well Ms. Harris here is your commendation, it will never be forgotten. God Bless you for caring during this personal challenging time.

Staff was helpful and friendly. After parking in the back lot or street, you take the elevator to the 4th floor (for Suite 400) . There will be security team of two who inspect your bag for contents. and ask you some questions (Do you have an appontment? Are you carrying any arms, sharp objects, etc..)? At the time I was there for a 1:20 PM appointment, everyone else there (maybe 15-20 people) also had appointments. There were two TV monitors, but they were not watching TV shows - just monitors showing which ticket number was next and some government ads. Suggestion: Try to get an appointment before getting there. After security, register on the touch screen to get your ticket. Take a book or something to read (my phone signal was weak). I was there 15 minutes early and they took me right at 1:20.

I went down there, stood in line for 30 minutes, and found out the ticket wasn't input. Its tough because the ticket had a DUE date ut nobody entered in the ticket yet. They said it's not in system soooo... Now I have to come back and do it again. It should have been input. I don't know if it's the California Highway Patrol or if it's them. I will try to look it up online but had a good conversation in line with people sooo :) Agian didn't get two or one star because they were nice but hopefully this will get resolved.

The…read moreparking situation was confusing as you get moved based on how full the lot is even though jurors get assigned parking. Staff were not as helpful with guiding to courtrooms so you had to quietly find where you needed to be and once you became a juror, you couldn't talk to anyone anyway. There is no fridge or microwave for jurors to store lunch so you have to eat out everyday, and there was not a cafe to purchase coffee or snacks either so you had to buy your treats before entering. The judge and bailiff of our room was helpful but i can see why people say being in a courthouse is frustrating, I plan to not have to return for a long time.

I went in for the marine section, and forgot a valid form of ID, but they actually allowed me to go through the process either way since they had it on file. I'm appreciative of this place because it's the start of something big. I wish the workers there, and the new recruits going in the best of luck !

I think you'll find it helpful if your child will find themself here. I can remember the day like it was yesterday... a day like any other here in Sunny SoCal - my son, a sophomore college student who was majoring in Criminology/Criminal Justice told me when we were out on a hike that he wanted to take this path. Was I completely caught off guard? Yes! Did I give him a long drawn out speech about how when we start things, we finish them and he was absolutely not putting his college education on hold to detour down a different road? Yes! I told him, after he graduates he can explore this passion to serve our country and thought that was the end of it. Fast forward to this March when I check his location and find he's at a local US Army recruiting station and my heart falls out of my chest. As a single mother since he was 9 months old, this past year has been interesting to say the least. As a college graduate he knew he'd go the Officer route and began the prep and testing earlier in the year. He's been to MEPS a few times now. They typically put him up at the LAX Marriott, as a parent of a child who rarely if ever sleeps away from home unless it's at a best friends house this was a very new experience for the both of us. Rooms are shared at the hotel, meals are provided, and wake up seems to be around 230/3a, brekke at 345a, with a shuttle back to the center around 430a. My son was extremely determined to follow his next dream after graduation. He maxxed out on all tests written, physical (we're a fairly athletic family already so these things were no stretch), etc. and went in front of the local board this past October. I knew the week of December 5th would be a very exciting one for him. I also knew within ten days I'd have the end date to our Book 1 Chapter 22. My son received his acceptance call from his recruiter as told on Dec 9th (congrats to all accepted), he signed his 8 year 3yr 24month active duty contract and was sworn in 4 days later. I was not able to be in the building but they live stream these and I was able to watch it in that capacity. Things move extremely slow at MEPS, but food is provided and phones can be used from time to time for communication. My son noted many of the men and women here are very young (high school age). There are no words to express the amount of pride I have in him, the confidence I have in his leadership and admiration I have for his courage and bravery. He'll be at Fort Jackson and then at Fort Benning. So while I look up every yummy restaurant and fun spot in Columbia and Columbus, and pick out graduation dresses he is off on a very big and exciting journey to serve amongst the less than 1% (a category I do love us tackling but my marathons just can't quite compare to this on any level). I know my two grandfathers are smiling down, beaming with pride. I truly believe all men should be required to, as time has passed I see so many benefits to it. I don't like using the word "real man" but I really do feel like it takes a certain kind to go active duty and quite frankly out here in the West I don't think it's as common as in other states. I know our political party has nothing to really do with this and some are going strictly for the benefits, and even marrying for extra cash flow which is certainly a path. My son doesn't care much about the salary, his motive is service and acquiring the skills to better land a spot in the CIA or FBI by way of becoming a US Army Ranger serving in the 75th regiment. Reach for the stars baby! Columbia, SC here we come!!! Ok, maybe just me for graduation, yummy bites and weekend adventures. I refuse to be the crazy mom who does a short term rental near the base just to know I'm breathing the same air near him, unless.... I do that near Fort Benning ;) kidding kidding. Bring your patience when you are coming here, the days are long and things like fingerprints can take 5 hours to do in just a few minutes. Travel arrangements for ship dates are taken care of here but seem to be an all day process as well. Patience, patience, patience. Hurry up and wait is definitely accurate. Sending love to all of the families of our service men and women from a very new empty nester single Army Mom who is looking forward to being a resource to others in similar situations.
