Actually, the reason most of them are probably staying on the force is because they have years of service and they are HOPING NOLA will have enough to cover their pensions so they can retire when their time is up. I'm sure most wanted to quit during the hurricane but with wives and families to support, it's not as easy as walking out the door, moving the family and getting a job at McD's.
Police and teachers are some of the most underpaid and underappreciated jobs out there and we'd all be in hell if they both disappeared.
