Cops do their jobs everyday without going to prison...so a bad cop got caught...
..if you are afraid of going to prison by going to work, dont go. Go be a PE coach then. Oh, you dont have a degree. Well what experience do you have? Oh, carrying a weapon and policing other countries? Oh, well you better find something a little less stressful, as you are in fear all of the time anyway. You can always go be a personal trainer, I guess. I hear the jiffy lubes down the street is hiring...
If you cant deal with heat, stay the f**k out of the kitchen.
