If your city has to take out an ad in the New York Times letting people know everything is not as bad as it seems, you know you have a P.R. problem.

For the last month Iʼve been pummeled with advertisements for the Portland Police Department. Theyʼre so desperate for people theyʼve started holding job fairs here in Vegas, and presumably other nearby cities.

The ads claim the starting salary for a Portland police officer is $67,000 to $95,000. Too bad Iʼd be terrible at it.
