    Fairly accurate description Lots more besides that though. Had many trainees quit after their first difficult call.

    Poor disenfrachised police officers. The public decides to give them a little bit of accountability and they fall apart.

    Thankfully it's not all cops that are this fragile, just a few bad apples.
    You just replaced the word “Teachers” with “Police Officer” on that list. You can’t fool us.

    pay for the sherriff deputies here was under 40,000 per year

    Why anyone would put their life on the line for that is past me

    I looked into the boarder patrol many years ago. THe pay was good but it's dangerous plus it's 95-110 degrees five months a year

    Knew a guy who accepted a job with the local Sheriffs office. 44K a year. He quit in the Academy as he finally had the good sense to realize risking your life all while being hated and vilified by half the population for 44K a year is dumb.

    Cleaning up after food fights is life changing shit. Plus getting those 3 months off a year is a lonely burden to bear. Sorry, I jest. Teachers do have to deal with a shit ton of bullshit but probably not on the scale Sled just vividly described.
