On the other hand, the First Rule of Policing is "get home for dinner."
- LunaSea 8y agoI'm a software developer but maybe I should get payed as a police officer on top my regular wage since that's my rule as well. Actually, you might as well give me a raise because I haven't killed anybody in the process either.
- CompanionCuuube 8y agoThe primary oath of doctors is "do no harm". Maybe you should get payed as a doctor too since that's your rule as well. You haven't killed anyone due to medical error either so you also deserve that raise.

- izacus 8y ago> On the other hand, the First Rule of Policing is "get home for dinner." Is that in US? Because in my EU country, "Protect life" is pretty much what they're trained to do. That includes life of civilians, themselves and criminals in this order. Killing anyone is seen as a failure which results in an investigation into why hurting someone was necessary.
