    “Respect me! I put my life on the line for you every day!”

    Meanwhile, being a cop isn’t even in the Top 10 of the most dangerous jobs. Some lists don’t even put it in the top 20. I’ve had two jobs that are always in the Top 5, and I’ve never gone around demanding respect because I had a dangerous job. In fact, I never even thought about the dangers, and didn’t know they were considered so dangerous until years later, and saw a list of dangerous jobs. Even if I knew, I would have kept doing the job.

    But cops want to remind literally EVERYBODY, literally every moment of the day. Fucking cowards.

      right? “oooh our job is so hard, we get to drive cool vehicles, play with fun toys like guns and stuff, can get away with anything, if we screw up we get paid vacation, we’re unionized and at the end we get a pension. We’re total selfless heroes!”
