Which job(s) would you refuse to accept regardless of how good the pay is?

That should be evidence to them that they are the bad guys. No one tells a job offer to “fuck off” if the company isn’t utterly shit. Even if Meta or Twitter offered me a job I’d probably just use a curt “no” and move on. But, Project Veritas, Heritage Foundation, Palantir? They’d get a “fuck off” for sure.
Yeah. I'll interview with anyone who wants it, but for Palantir and Heritage Foundation and others who are actively working to make peoples' lives worse? They'd get a very Canadian "no, sorry*, I would prefer not".
- Canada has like 5 meanings for 'sorry', including "I'm saddened you can't be better than you are."

If American Cops Are Bastards, you may be out of luck. My wife's sister is a cop (not American) when she's not Ambulance (or volunteer fire! She's an over-achiever). I've known her longer than I've known my wife, and she's stayed a really great person despite the horror (and poop) she's seen.
But yeah, we need to pay American cops more so they can get better applicants and can then screen out and weed out the bastards.
It varies on localities but cops can make a shit ton especially in cities.
Seattle will hire you with only a high school diploma starting at over $100k/yr with a $7500 hiring bonus and are still understaffed and keep lowering the requirements to become a cop
They also have eligibility for tons of overtime and can make over 200-300k/yr after just a few years on the force
Yet still they have an abysmal police department
Which is why acab stands for all cops are bastards -
ICE agent.
Unless you are very good at causing internal disruptions, sabotage and slow downs.

I once interviewed at a bulk email (spam) company because i was desperate for a job. They realized how uncomfortable i was so didn’t offer it, but i like to think I would have declined, regardless how much i needed the job.

Anything where you're around the public all day. Rather wash dishes than be a waitress.
wrote last edited by [email protected]That’s the one thing i got from working food service: i so much prefer dealing with the stink and mess of dish room than having to deal with people …. Although tipping made the pay disparity pretty significant

Which is why acab stands for all cops are bastardsI always wondered if the overtime is part of the problem. A lot of it is pretty sketchy, so it’s training cops to be sketchy
In my state, police unions have been pretty aggressive about requiring construction sites to pay for police details. I have no idea whether it has the safety benefits they claim but
- city is happy because someone else is paying their cops
- cops are happy with opportunity to make bank
But we all pay a little more, cops have a conflict of interest acting as an authority figure for a private company, and the requirements are sketchy on both sides for something other than what they were hired for

From what I have heard their overtime numbers are largely bullshit and used as a way to inflate their income and it’s considered an “acceptable practice”
But even with all of that we still can’t find good police…

Raytheon and co. Anything related to "defense", really.
You only go around the sun so many times, and you want to spend it on making brown kids into skeletons more efficiently? Fuck that shit.

Same. Although mainly because I don't have the cool maintain my cover while undermining the organization from within.

But, what about your monthly "nut"?

Nursing.
Couldn't pay me to go through the hell those people witness
there's a lot of different settings for a nurse, but I guess a good nurse should be able to at least stomach the worst of em if needed

This unfortunately is the problem with the police. People who see the police as problematic are unwilling to join so the majority of people who join are the ones who just want to have power over others.
There are many variations on the quote but a cop who doesn’t report a bad cop is themselves a bad cop, so you could be the actual good cop who reports their coworkers until you get fired from the corrupt org but if enough people did that we might actually see some change.
Cops also have a surprising amount of freedom to choose to enforce laws so you could also just not enforce laws you consider corrupt.
I am saying this as a person who wouldn’t want to associate with a cop but would love to have some cops who aren’t bastards but unfortunately #ACAB
You're right. the institution of policing protects the interests of the wealthy and the status quo. that's why all cops are bastards. we can definitely have better or worse human beingd entering the institution.
Sadly the majority of them are from the bottom of the barrel. We definitely need more cops sympathetic to the interests of the people

"Look, I've worked with other vulture companies to convince them to get better PR by not being absolute soul-rotting evil all the time!" is not the flex you think it is, R.E. insurance compainies.
I think you misread. I didn't work with or for insurance companies.

Anything public facing or anything that has me carrying around a gun. Both are absolute no-gos in my mind.

A) they wouldn't. B) I'd still end up in jail for attacking another agent.
