A good friend and a father figure to me worked in the homicide unit. He and I used to talk about football, how stupid our job was, the incompetence of our leaders, etc.
And the cowardly snitch that made our life hell and by the way, made it harder to investigate and thwart terrorism in NYC.
My friend marveled at the fact that he kept getting promoted and wondered aloud at the reason.
I said, oh, that’s easy.
He’s a c___sucker.
My friend laughs out loud and goes that’s right.
You see, most people when they are asked to do something like that will go “No thanks” or if they really have to, do it reluctantly for an absolutely good reason.
But not this guy, for him it’s “How would you like that sir?”
My captain would also laugh out loud in meetings when I told him that I refused to do that.
