WORK or PRISON… IN PRISON AT WORK You spend the majority of your time in an 8x10 cell You spend most of your time in a 6x8 cubicle
You get three meals a day You only get a break for 1 meal and you have to pay for it
You get time off for good behavior You get rewarded for good behavior with more work
A guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you You must carry around a security card and unlock and open all the doors yourself
You can watch TV and play games You get fired for watching TV and playing games
You get your own toilet You have to share They allow your family and friends to visit You cannot even speak to your family and friends
All expenses are paid by taxpayers with no work required You get to pay all the expenses to go to work and then they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners
You spend most of your life looking through bars from the inside wanting to get out You spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars
There are wardens who are often sadistic. They are called managers
Where would you rather be?

In prisons you get raped and that is something you wouldn't want to go through, I imagine. Work sucks, I agree, and your list of opposites is a cool piece of work. But we are here, chatting and having fun, and later we can all fuck off to our respective homes and listen to the music and have fun with our cats/ partners/ friends. You don't get much of that in prisons.

Well I don't work so I'd much rather be at home then work or prison. But out of prison or work, thats easy, work. Meho is right, even if your workplace sucks atleast after work you have FREEDOM to go home and do what you want. And thats a very awesome thing.
But it does seem to be the thing now that prison sounds more like a resort than a place of criminal punishment. Lately here there has been this big case where these two teenagers raped and killed this granny and they got atleast four years in jail with a maxium of six years I believe. The family and heaps of people are all really angry at the amount they are getting and how the kids are being treated. They get access to a gym, swimming pools, can watch cable TV and more. Of course the kids lose their freedom for sometime (and of course I'm sure prison is a highly violent place rife with rape) but I just think that Pay TV and swimming pools seem a bit over the top.

i worked in a prison before... i'm serious here. i was a "screw" in a small detention center. i liked working there. i would work the midnight to eight shift, and sometimes the other guard (there were only 2 guards) was my mom, so we would take turns going and sleeping in one of the cells while the other one held the fort. i loved working in jail.

but i dont see why so many people hate work. why spend the greater part of your life doing something you don't want to be doing? i am learning how to cook and i work in a restaurant, and this is wonderful. all you have to do is what you want, and get paid for it. just dont do what you dont want to do, and shut up with the complaining!!!

i've been in jail and still had to work, in the kitchen with no days off. that really sucked. you get paid $.50 a day. you work 8 hours a day. everybody (the guards and the other inmates) fucks with you to try and start shit. there are 2 tvs between 64 inmates. 4 pissers and 4 shitters for all of those 64 inmates. other than all that fun stuff, jail rules!
