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 ordered two papers from you at once. Both of them had strict deadlines and not that much time left. Your writers managed to get both papers to me on time, and both of them received high marks. I am so happy about this! |

I would like to say thanks to writer #48376 for doing such an astonishing job on my paper. I really gave him very little to go on. Still, he was able to do the research and come up with a champion paper for me. I am speechless. I didn’t expect anything nearly this good. |

I am 100% satisfied with the writer that you assigned to my project. This person understood exactly what I needed, even though I’m not the best communicator and the instructions were tedious and difficult. I felt certain I would have to send my paper back for a number of revisions, but I didn’t. The writer was able to convey exactly what I wished to express and he did it in record time!Thanks for everything. EssaysEmpire.com is the greatest! |

The essay that your writers turned out for me far exceeded what I was expecting. It even came with a plagiarism report to prove that it was original. The customer service center was the picture of perfection, too. I loved everything about using EssaysEmpire.com and plan to use your services again. You are one class act! |

I submitted my order as a ‘rush order’. I only had 2 days to get my paper finished and I just felt like I was sinking. I didn’t understand the material I was writing about, and I didn’t know what I was going to do. My friend recommended EssaysEmpire.com. I had very little lost by attempting to use this writing service, so I did. It was an excellent move on my part, because, not only was my paper finished on time. It was also excellently written. I will always be grateful to my friend for recommending your service. It is wonderful. |

Dear EssaysEmpire.com, I have never used a writing service like yours before. None of the ones I have tried previously offered the kind of guarantees that you offer. I even bought a paper that was plagiarized once. I never have to worry about things like that with EssaysEmpire.com! Thanks a million! |

You guys are fabulous to offer such amazing guarantees for your work. I hired you for my last two papers because there was no risk involved. That was a pretty attractive option, if you ask me. Of course, I didn’t have to cash in on any kind of guarantee, because the work was perfect! Go figure. Thank you, EssaysEmpire.com. |
