@What a joke
You poke fun however, find out some history about your department. For years and years inmates worked gun towers and work squads. You laugh but it’s a pretty good idea. Especially when the department can’t seem to get anything else right. And before 1988, an inmate could get out and come to work for the department. My husband did ten years, five of them on CM 1 @ FSP in the late 90’s. He is as conservative as a person can be, votes that way, and hasn’t been back. Although, he couldn’t work for that pay.

Place is so bad, people wont even comment on it anymore, its a waste of time. The worse part is they want to put kids around career criminals. Tells you something about the leadership. Whats next, hire ex inmates are criminals to watch inmates.

Been an officer with the state correctional system for years and years and I’m a veteran, 16 years. The state will not give raises to the only ones who have been there for them all these years but are willing to hire more and more untested individuals at a lower age in order to bring there numbers into a reasonable number according to the state legislature. So let’s just put a bandage on this as usual and avoid the ones who have been there the whole time. Great magic trick florida and another reason to just not pay your trusted veterans. WE NEED TO KEEP OUR TRUSTED PROVEN OFFICERS. PAY US
