Is your client the Miami police?

In 2018 alone, Miami cops working side jobs made $18.9 million atop their city salaries. And dozens of police officers, over a four-year period, worked what amounted to full-time jobs while off the clock.

One officer even managed to put in for 3,714 hours of extra duty in a single year. Coupled with his city job, that breaks down to the officer working an average of almost 18 hours a day. For 365 straight days.
