Bravo, I am printing this one for my wife.
She is a county employee and is under a lot of
stress from such types.  I could not articulate it that well.

<<I've long suspected that among the people who hold minor jobs that imbue
them
with great power are those who simply love being able to lord it over their
fellow humans.It's probable  that many at every level of law enforcement,
customs, including the  people who sit behind a desk at city hall and tell
you what you can and  can't do and are able control your life even
briefly--are  in the job for the power it confers upon them--not for the
relatively small salaries such jobs usually pay.  Where else can a person
who
is otherwise without importance or significance in his private life feed his
ego by being able to persecute others at random and with impunity? It's the
dream of every schoolyard bully.>>
