Cops net holiday for 9/11
Peabody cops will pocket extra pay to work Sept. 11 or take a day off, thanks to a new union contract.
Even though the date commemorating the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on America is neither a state nor federal holiday, officers who work it will receive time-and -a-quarter compensation, while others will have the option of taking the day off, said Manny Costa, president of the Peabody Police Benevolent Association.

Gee, why would it bother me that someone is using 9/11 as a way to make extra money?
But the worst cut of all are the claims that they're "memorializing" the "losses."
