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.

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. |

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. |

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! |

You’ve done it again! Every time I order a paper from EssaysEmpire.com, you top the last one. This latest one was the best yet. I truly do appreciate the fact that you offer such high quality writing. It never fails. With some of the other writing services online, you ever really know what you are going to get. Sometimes, they just sell you a paper that someone else has already bought. I never have to worry about things like that happening when I use EssaysEmpire.com. |

I had a hard time articulating what my professor wanted, so I was able to speak straight to my writer. After I had explained a little bit, I could tell he understood everything. He then took the ball and ran with it, so to speak. He wrote my paper in two days and it was the picture of perfection! I am very grateful that he knew what to do and how to do it so perfectly. |

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 |

Thanks goes out to the writers who presented me with the best paper I have ever turned in. My professor was so impressed with it that he took excerpts from it to put in his class handouts on how to write the perfect paper. EssaysEmpire.com, you made me one proud student today! |
