    I get that we all hate cops here, and believe me, I do, but why wouldn’t any labor count toward your retirement? That’s ridiculous.

      Yup. All hours worked should be included in pension calculations. The problem is the scamming done by cops and their unions, and the inclusion of hours worked for entities other than the actual PD (ie: stores, markets, security, etc).

      No cop should be able to use their uniform to work for a third party and have those hours count towards their publically-funded pension.

      Should be base pay, for any job cop or not. Especially DB pensions. Overtime is your own money if you want to save it.
