4. Working At Prisons/Jails

Is hard work to begin with. At the Federal level, most staff are under paid (bonuses were reduced), under staffed (mandatory overtime), under trained (who has time for training if you’re understaffed) as well as mentally stressed given the environment.

Now if you work in these places, you’re going to expose yourself and your family to communicable diseases.

Funny how the tough on crime people care as little for the people working at these places as the people they’re warehousing in them.
