The title Pig Tales was suggested by a police dispatcher who had worked with Don in a neighboring town. The title just stuck. The book goes on to describe the author's trials and tribulations in the eighties when police work was a sought-after occupation. People with educated backgrounds from other fields had been laid off and sought a guaranteed income with little chance of being involved with cutbacks. A new young person with little or no experience stood a scant chance of landing a job. Often four hundred people would show up to a candidate selection process.
In the end, smaller towns proved easier. It was not what you knew but who you knew and how much you were willing to take monetarily. In the end, a small town of five thousand people was selected Bordered by a much larger community. Thirty thousand vehicles a day passed through this community on an average Monday through Friday, and with them brought just about anything. There were seven bars and two churches. The downtown architecture almost matched the people inside the buildings.
