Law Enforcement. They can literally get away with murder and they will be protected by their coworkers and bosses.
Believe it or not it's also a terrible job. You see a lot of bad shit. Car wrecks, death, abused kids. And even if you do your job the right way most the people you interact with won't like you.
Yeah... because you're a corrupt and murderous goon that's above the law. What's not to dislike?
Or you pull someone over for a dui.
It's not just their bosses and coworkers that protects them - the entire media machine and political establishment protects them as well.
We don't say ACAB for nothing.
