do I smell like bacon (hexbear.net)

Earnest question here. I got offered a job with public works inventory management for a city. I thought it would be limited to just public works, but it also includes inventory for the police fleet. Part of applying was to salt for the municipal workers union. Would doing inventory management partially for cop cars make me a pig?

If you smell like bacon you may be on fire.

You can do bad inventory management and order shoddy parts. Order from the slowest, sloppliest suppliers and treat their salespeople like shit so they don't want to work with you. Work to rule on all maintence requestions.

I'm bad at treating people poorly but I'm really good at being sloppy
