    In corrupt systems being corrupt isn’t an option; it’s mandatory.

    A good example of the cadet to pig pipeline is padding overtime. Whenever you see a cop charged with anything, one of the charges will inevitably be “theft of public funds” or some such. That’s padded overtime. But now imagine you’re honest on your timesheet. You look like the laziest cop now.

    Same thing for arrests, tickets, or any metric used to gauge performance.

      They also love to pick up arrests near the end of their shifts so they can spend hours of milking overtime doing paperwork at your expense.
