The Morning Brew: Oklahoma sheriff gets unpleasant surprise
Sheriff saw his pay drop
CHICKASHA — Grady County Sheriff Jim Weir is "a little ticked."
Weir was notified this week that his salary was being cut by about $20,000 a year.

What has Weir irritated is the damage to his reputation — damage that he says is unfair.
Weir was one of eight Grady County elected officials notified this week that their salaries were being cut from about $80,000 a year to $60,775 a year.
