No offense, but I honestly can't see why anyone would want to be a cop in this day and age. The majority of the people you interact with are the dregs of society (not which are worse, the perps, the lawyers, the politicians or the social activists), none of them appreciate the risks you take, everyone second guesses your every move, you are expected to be perfect at all times, in all things, and worst of all the politicians parade you out every budget cut cycle as the martyrs should the city coffers be found lacking.
I truly appreciate those who take up the calling of serving and protecting, what a thankless job!
As do I.
I'm a far cry from being old and bitter, but I pray my kids won't be cops.
