Fogging him out with O.C. works most of the time.

Topic: Security Central / A question about cellphones

Most people in this profession are proud to be in it. It’s obvious from your post that your’re experiencing emotional problems that I would guess were in place prior to your current occupation. No reason to slander an entire occupation. Just get a new job and a good counselor!

Topic: A Broader View / Prison & Slavery - A Surprising Comparison

Comparing prison with slavery is ridiculous. Slaves are victims. They were captured, sold and forced to work, not as a punishment for any wrong-doing. The inmates in prison are there because they were found guilty of a felony. I do believe we incarcerate too many, though. I think that drugs should now be treated like the most dangerous drug of all, alcohol. Legalize it with minimum age of 21 and tax the heck out of it.

Topic: The Club House / 12 Hour Shifts

Ours is pretty simple. Four on, Four off. Most everyone seems to like it pretty well.

Topic: Security Central / Cell Searches

I used to allow them to hang out outside the cell but years ago an inmate attempted to lock me in the cell one day so ever since then I made them wait in the day room until I was done.

Topic: The Club House / Just Asking.....

I just post when I’m goofing off at work, which is RARE (that’s for the benefit of those monitoring my computer use!) I rarely get on the internet at home except for paying bills.

Topic: A Broader View / Are You A Knuckle Dragger?

I have a couple of nephews that have been in and out of jail/prison and like most all inmate mothers/grandmothers/girlfriends they believe everything they tell them hook, line and sinker. So them I’M the one that’s looked on with suspicion because I’m one of them big, mean prison guards their little darling told them all about. I’ve tried to set the record straight a couple times in as gentle a manner as possible but you can tell they’re always going to believe them more than me.

Topic: The Club House / Does work sometimes conflict with home life?

Looks like we need a verification process like some of the other sites are doing to keep former inmates from posting. KakosangPinoy, welcome! I bet it’s a lot warmer there than here in Wyoming!

Topic: The Club House / Does work sometimes conflict with home life?

You don’t have to worry about inmates lieing on you. They will always do that. One of my duties is to answer inmate grievances. If the inmate says Ofc. Smith kicked him in the knee I ask Ofc. Smith “Did you kick him in the knee?”. The officer says “no” so that’s what the inmate’s response is. I will always believe a staff member over the inmate unless on the rare occasion that it is a staff member who has developed a reputation of dishonesty, not following policy, etc. Then the accusations get looked into a little bit.

Topic: A Broader View / Guidelines for Muslim women's head covering

The requirements are whatever your department’s policy says it is. If you follow policy the lawsuit will be directed towards your department and not you. If your department doesn’t have a policy on the matter let them wear whatever they want until something’s put in writing.

Shakey, by “overseeing” I’m referring to is someone in charge of operating the filter that keeps the spam entries out. Not sure how you got order out of that, nor am I sure how you thought I was referring to you.

Topic: A Broader View / Crime and "Punishment" in Modern Corrections

So, since you received slow service in Johnson County Kansas you figured you’d gripe on a worldwide corrections forum, hijacking four threads in the process. Sounds reasonable to me!

Topic: Security Central / Are gangs running our prisons?

So let me guess, cjarnold, are you an inmate’s girlfriend or mother? Look into the whole story some time, not just what the inmate’s telling you. I know, I’ve talked to plenty of inmate girlfriends and mothers over the years to tell you that you’re not getting the truth. Has he used the one on you yet that he has to attend a treatment program and has to pay for it himself so you need to send him the money or he’ll be in prison forever? If not, it’s coming.

We do sack lunches too. I’ve recommended meal loaf before but that got shot down for some reason!

Topic: A Broader View / Crime and "Punishment" in Modern Corrections

I agree with what you wrote Pickle. Good post. As jaded and cynical as I’ve become over the years I still have hope that some will leave better than they arrived. If I didn’t have that hope I don’t think I could get myself to keep showing up to work every day.

Topic: The Club House / Officer image

I hear what you’re saying Taz. It’s a crazy world. Still waiting for the pendulum to swing back the other way but don’t know if it ever will now. Maybe the tea party movement will bring in some fire breathing Republicans who will put in some common sense thinking people to get our prisons back under control and take them away from the hug-a-thugs. Mick, sounds like you got you a good warden!

The kids still don’t like it when I pat them down and shake down their bedrooms but they’ve gotten used to it!

In Wyoming if you can drag the elk you shot back to your pickup, then you’re considered good to go!

If the gerbil voodoo doesn’t work it’s face down on the ground, cuffed behind the back, and then off to the hole!
