Do I Want to Work in a Prison
← Qualities of a Good Teacher | Part Time Jobs for Students → |
Introduction
Correctional officers are those individuals who are responsible for overseeing that arrested individuals and who are waiting trial or those who have been convicted and sentenced in jail, reformatory or penitentiary for a specific term are taken care of as stipulated (Occupational outlook handbook). This essay will discuss my thoughts and opinions about this career of working in a prison as a correctional officer and its pros and cons.
Correctional officers
The work of a correctional officer is mainly to maintain law and order for those individuals who have been convicted or imprisoned. These state officers have no jurisdiction outside the prisons. These officers are meant to ensure that inmates are orderly and obey rules regardless of the setting. There job is sometimes very risky as they deal with all types of criminals and as sometimes they are supposed to search inmates for drugs or weapons. Theirs is to me, a job that is being more of a prisoner than an officer (Occupational outlook handbook). But again, these officers really feel proud when they see that through them, the societies we live in are save and that the law breakers are counseled and shown how to live positively and normally with other members of society.
Cons of working as a state officer
- They have to spend some considerable time from their families when training
- After training, they are usually subject to the busiest shift
- The job is a soul sucking one, brutal things at work and being abused by inmate that may even cause depression
- These officers rarely do attend important family meetings or holidays like Christmas because they are mostly on duty (Riggs, L. 2007).
Pros of working as a state officer
- The state of family’s health is well covered by the state and also dental insurance is covered at a low or no fee at all.
- As long as the officer shows up for work and is disciplined, s/he is guaranteed of her/his job.
- These officers receive adequate sick and vacation times as a state corrections officer. The time off increase with the increase in number of years an officer has been working (Riggs, L. 2007).
I do not mind working in prison as a correction officer. State corrections officers have a very difficult job, but they greatly help to keep our communities and families safe and could want to be part of that. Being a state corrections officer definitely has its advantages and drawbacks. It is not the job for everyone, but it may be the right job for me.

I am completely satisfied with the paper I purchased from your company. I only wish I had known about you last year when I took an F grade for not being able to complete a paper on time. The work you did was marvelous. Whenever I find myself falling behind in my school work, I will be sure to pass along some of my more difficult written assignments to you |

There are four things that I look for in a good writing service. #1. They have to be fast. A good writing service won’t miss an important deadline. #2. A good writing service will let customers actually talk to the writer who is working on their customer’s papers, so the customer can work out important details. #3. A good writing service will have a user-friendly website that is easy for the customer to use and #4, a good writing service will offer quality guarantees. EssaysEmpire.com meets all of this criteria and more. EssaysEmpire.com is the best writing service and has the reputation to prove it. I wouldn’t even consider using another writing service since experiencing the excellence that is EssaysEmpire.com! |

The paper that your writers did for me on the topic of, The Psychological Effects of Fluorescent Lighting in the Workplace,” was right on the money! They included my long list of customizations and did not charge extra for them. The formatting was just right. There were no grammatical errors. The length was what it was supposed to be. I am so happy that I chose to let the EssaysEmpire.com writers take care of my paper for me. I will choose this writing service again without hesitation. |

Given the short amount of time I gave your writers to create my term paper, I was amazed by how good it was when I received it back! It appeared they had spent months writing it, rather than just one week. Thank you, EssaysEmpire.com! I enjoyed doing business with you. You are a fabulous writing company. |

I don’t see how anyone could write a paper about something as boring as the psychology of the two year old, could make it sound so interesting, but your writers managed to pull it off. Thank you for putting forth such a concerted effort to do a good job. I really appreciate it. I will use your service again |

I had to turn on my laptop for the express purpose of writing to you. I had to let you know what lifesavers you people are! I had never even considered hiring a professional writer to help me and was almost resigned to dropping out of school altogether. Then, I thought about it, and asked myself what it would hurt to try EssaysEmpire.com for just one paper. That paper was written astonishingly well! From that one paper, I learned many of the things that I did not know about writing. It was perfect, so I learned all about formatting in the APA style. I learned a lot, so I want to thank you for that. |
