I worked for the California state system, starting as a Correctional Officer and retiring as a Lieutenant in 2005. I now write for the PacoVilla blog which is concerned with what could broadly be called The Correctional System.
As far as I know there are not hard restricitons about ink, though clearly if you have things that look like gang tattoos or strong non-standard political statements you will have a problem. If you have a lot of ink you may want to wear a lot of long-sleeved shirts.
Not as far as I know, though the rules may have changed since I retired over nine years ago.
Depends how blatant the offense is and how forgiving you are feeling. Occasional acting out is just an expression of anger or frustration and is not necessarily personal. If they get really nasty, or become repeat offenders, or are clearly showing off for the homies you then have to do something.
I never worked at either. Back when I was working SQ was much more rough-and-tumble than was CMF Vacaville. However, except for death row, SQ is now largely mainline medium security I understand. Vacaville has a lot of sick or disturbed prisoner-patients, and there is a constant tug of war over who actually runs the place, the Chief Medical Officer or the Warden. I would be inclined to make my decision if I were you on othe factors, such as commute and housing costs. Unless you already live in the SQ general area those factors would tend to favor Vacaville, plus there are other prisons nearby that you could transfer-promote into later, where SQ is kind of just there by itself. Job duties are generally the same but the clientel can be very different.

Were there a lot of suicides in your prison, and what's the most common way prisoners do it?You certainly meet the educational requirements. In CAlifornia at least you still have to pass the physical, background and get through the academy. The department generally prefers to hire counselors that have some custody background but it is an open, entry level position and you can hire directly into it (or at least that was the case when I was working, nearly ten years ago).
That isn't really my end of the business. Even if the Texas cops decide to go after him, which they might not, California may not pay to extradite him back to CA. CA will enter a warrant into the system on him. If he comes into contact with the cops after that they will arrest him. What happens depends a lot of what he was actually convicted of. Sorry I could not help more. It is completely possible that nothing will happen. It is also compltely possible they will ship him back to CA as an absconder.
I don't know the law in Florida that well. In CA (which I suspect is strongly similar) he would have to report the relationship only if you are under supervision, i.e. parole or probation. Failure to report the relationship is the problem, not the relationship itself. Also there is an issue with firearms, if he has any issued to him there are probably requirements about storage. He can not leave an unattended, unlocked firearm around you, or possibly ammunition is an issue too. YOu might want to spend a couple of bucks on a Florida attorney that specializes in legal matters like that, ESPECIALLY if you are still under supervision.
