Good on you.Yeah, I finished up on an SNY yard. A lot of those type of dudes on those yards...the worst kind. Glad to be retired from that shit. Seven months now.
Glad you made your retirement brother. 22-years with no personal problems with any individual inmate, then 4-months before I retired, a 2-5er decided to take a swing on me during a 2 on 1.Good on you.
My last 5 years at Folsom they changed it from a level 3 to a level 2 SNY yard and it got a lot worse. Every deviant in America was walking the yard....I'm surprised I made retirement
I have scars....there were 186 stabbings my first year at Folsom...this does not include those shot by staff (13) or staff assaults (undisclosed)...Folsom was a mad house the first 5-10 years of my career. Folsom staff assault rate back then was 30%...you had a 1-in-3 chance of being assaulted each year....Glad you made your retirement brother. 22-years with no personal problems with any individual inmate, then 4-months before I retired, a 2-5er decided to take a swing on me during a 2 on 1.
Obepawn you know what PIA is right?....I was in charge of a prison metal fabrication factory with a crew of 150 inmates. Try motivating a guy to work harder, who's doing double life without.... it was like swimming in a shark tank every day, many on my crew had killed before, some more than once.Glad you made your retirement brother. 22-years with no personal problems with any individual inmate, then 4-months before I retired, a 2-5er decided to take a swing on me during a 2 on 1.
Yeah, I know what PIA is bro. My experience with lifers is, I would rather have a building full of lifers, over youngster with dates. Those guys always showed me respect, of course I always treated inmates with common curtesy.Obepawn you know what PIA is right?....I was in charge of a prison metal fabrication factory with a crew of 150 inmates.

Did you ever tour the License plate factory at Folsom?...it was a regular stop for CO Cadets.Yeah, I know what PIA is bro.

I can’t count the stabbings, staff assaults, I personally been at ground zero in 5-6 riots and that was in my first 8-years. Did 12-years as a C/O, 4 of those in Squad, and then my last 10 as Correctional Counselor.
When I was a cadet, I went to Mule Creek and Vacaville. In one hour, I saw all I needed to see at Vacaville. Said I’d never work there. Never been to Folsom, close I got to being there was their firing range.Did you ever tour the License plate factory at Folsom?...it was a regular stop for CO Cadets.
LolMy job at Folsom.....
I had opportunity to promote to both Vacaville and Quentin and passed on both. Vacaville is a mad house (literally) and I couldn;t afford to live in Frisco, so i stayed at folsom.When I was a cadet, I went to Mule Creek and Vacaville.

By the way, saw your threads about your grows; very beautiful and healthy looking plants.Did you ever tour the License plate factory at Folsom?...it was a regular stop for CO Cadets.
Didn’t have a choice when I went in. I was living is Sac because I got out of the military there (McClellan AFB), so after the academy packed up and drove to the Coachella Valley. Your friend Curios2garden was spot on about where I worked. Ironwood.I had opportunity to promote to both Vacaville and Quentin and passed on both.

Absolutely true. Ironwood was a place where you could promote really fast because the turnover was super high. Like you said, middle of nowhere and hot as fuck for aboutMost of those level 4 prisons out in the desert are scary places to work. High level of sophisticated level 4 inmates and a staff full of newbies... Nobody with seniority wants to live out in the middle of nowhere. So most of the CO's are right out of Galt. The sgt might have 5 years and took a promotion to get the stripes & never supervised before...same thing with the LT.
Ever seen pics from a Star Wars convention? There are usually some pretty hot green colored "aliens" there.I'm sure there's a fetish for these....
I hate everything about dentists. You have to have some kind of S&M fetish to go into that profession. Did you like the new doc?Ever seen pics from a Star Wars convention? There are usually some pretty hot green colored "aliens" there.
Got a temporary crown today, go back in a couple weeks.
you had my hopes up.
Yeah, she's nice. A little bitty Vietnamese woman. Her hand isn't 3/4 the size of mine, but they are strong. (NOT in a Robert Kraft way)I hate everything about dentists. You have to have some kind of S&M fetish to go into that profession. Did you like the new doc?

You know how many years as a kid, I tried making that shit walk down stairs. Only thing I was able to do is tangle those fucker up. Lol
