But they haven't gotten their raise in a few years. They stand to get a 40% raise on base salary though. Also the overtime is pretty good for those guys. Because they work 12 hour shifts there are plenty of days off which they can go and get a transport or lace.

All things being equal, most sane people would choose to work for LSP rather than NOPD. My point is that the differential between the two agencies starting pay isn't what it used to be. Twenty years ago ago, a State Trooper started at about $10,000 or $12,000 more than a NOPD recruit. Not so much any more...
NOPD officers supplement their base pay with OT and "detail" work, just like LSP Troopers work highway construction sites.
Who's got a 40% base pay raise coming to them? I've got a State Trooper friend with three kids who'll be thrilled to have some extra tuition money!
