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

Why do so many people miss the military after they get out?
Toll Collector
What happens when a car blows past a tollbooth without paying?
Veterinarian

I feel bad about it for at least 15-20 seconds. Sometimes longer.
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.
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.
