There's always someone like this.

I knew a guy in fire academy who graduated, got hammered in the district, got pulled over, DUI. Same day.

Told the cop he "knew the fire chief" (read: he was vaguely known by the chief in an administrative way and a handshake at graduation)

Cop said "oh cool me too let's go see him"

Off to the station, it's 1am, chief working night.

Obviously he was toast, never seen again. The gall of some people to think they're "made"
