    I generally agree with the ACAB sentiment, but they were being paid $22 an hour which is a pittance. I wouldn’t do the job for that salary either.

      I’d sooner eat my own stool than be a cop, but it’s more than $22 if you sit in your idling cruiser looking at your phone while racking up that sweet overtime

      Do what job? Eat donuts in the only dunkin donuts in a 1000 person hovel and watch YouTube? Seems like a pretty cushy job for 22/hr. Let’s not act like this place is the height of crime…

      Don’t ever make the mistake thinking that cops have a hard or dangerous job.
