I went to the local station to turn in a nice DSLR camera I found on a park bench. Clearly lost, it was next to me for over an hour. The guy behind the desk couldn't be bothered to do the paperwork until I insisted but not before he was like "bro I would have just kept it if I was you"

Or maybe that's just the kind of person that becomes a police officer these days....

These days? It was even worse in the past - there is a whole wikipedia page on corruption in the NYPD.

Pay particular attention to the 73rd precinct, 75th precinct and the Giuliani led police riot, all happening around the same time.

Believe it or not, you actually have to have at least 60 college credits to become an NYPD officer (unless you're ex-military). So most cops you see around have gotten at least halfway to a bachelor's degree.
Which probably says a lot about higher education in this country.

Found property with no listed owner will sit in a warehouse forgotten for decades. It will never get back to its true owner. Dont know why he was being such a dick about a voucher though. Its not that much work
