But no, starting salary is like $48k. Like 4k a month. Seems to go up to the 80s. Not exactly “risk Hague trial” levels. In line with most office jobs.
As someone who is not in a good financial place, I would never work for ICE.
However, as someone who is not in a good financial place, if I realized I was probably working for an evil empire and couldn’t change anything from the inside: I wouldn’t be able to quit because my family would starve. I’d need to find another way to provide first, and that’s not easy when you’ve got kids and debt in a bad job market.
Stocking grocery store shelves wouldn’t pay the bills. That’s fairy tale logic/something that people with means can joke about doing.

Ok, fair enough. Hopefully the enraged mob will accept this excuse once the evil empire tanks and it’s mass graves are uncovered.
But hey, at least they will be staying in a so-so house until that happens, so they can act like they are being responsible to their immediate network.
If you can’t afford to quit, use the anonymity built into the system to subvert from within. Fire high or low (as the manufacturer instructs!) to avoid harming people. Send the teargas upwind of your own guys, they’re masked anyway. Treat protesters with respect and deescalate conflicts. If you’re supposed to be rounding up random folks rather than a dangerous criminal, moonrun (a word I just coined to mean making it look like you’re putting in the effort while not going anywhere fast) to fool your new body cam while you don’t catch anyone. If you have to transport abductees, at least try to make them less uncomfortable and keep family members together. If they show you documents, believe/honor them, and don’t confiscate them.
Most of this is how the job should legally be done, it only subverts the most evil parts. If they fire you, make sure you get the cause on record, if only through email bcc’d and saved to your own computer.
My dude if stocking grocery shelves paid six figures I’d do that tomorrow.
That makes it sound like you’re ok with working for ICE because it pays so well
Which it doesn’t. Which says a lot about them.
Doesn’t ICE pay like 20k€ a month?
A bunch of new agents aren’t getting paid at all.

I don’t interpret their response that way.

Heck yeah though, if stocking shelves paid 6 figures I’d apply immediately.

You’d have to fight so many autistic people to get that job, fr.
where we are going, we don’t need paid six figures, Marty
