Was there anyone you did not like?

Asked by Hu? almost 7 years ago

There are a great many people in the world I do not like. Since it is illegal to shoot them for being unlikable I just have to avoid them as much as I can.

If you where not a Correctional Officer what job could you see yourself doing?

Asked by Question to all about 6 years ago

Before that I worked for the DMV giving driving tests. It was OK but working at the prison was safer.

After a while you sort of get numb to the gross and disgusting things people are capable of doing to each other. Sad, but true.

What do you think of SHOCK treatment and victim impacts panels? Do you think they help people change or just throwing tax dollars at people who are unwilling to change

Asked by Robery about 6 years ago

A shock treatment is a medical procedure. I have no expertise in that area, though as a moderately well informed non-medical person I think they are of dubious benefit and, as far as I know, are no longer used anywhere. (Unless you mean something else I am unfamiliar with.)

I have no practical experience with Victim Impact Panels. I suspect the bad guys don't give a diddly damn about victims, if they did they wouldn't be bad guys.

Have you ever had bodily fluids on you?

Asked by Tina over 6 years ago

If you go to the right parties it happens all the time...Oh, you mean at work. That particular form of battery is colloquially referred to as "gassing" in the California system. I have to missed that fun experience during my employment. It is gross and disgusting and has many possible health risks attached to it. .
