Eatontown cops don't appreciate worker's sense of humor.

From today's Appellate Division decision in Connelly v. Eatontown

"Plaintiff was employed in the sign shop of the Borough's Department of Public Works. He was asked to prepare a replica of a license plate that the police would use to calibrate their equipment that automatically recognizes license plates. Connelly painted the words 'Police State,' instead of 'Garden State,' at the top of the replica. Connelly's supervisor issued a notice of disciplinary action, charging him with insubordination, inefficiency and violation Borough procedures and policies."
